COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION interesting latest news

Press material Monday 24 April 2023

● Council of the EU   24/04/2023 16:27 | Press release | Council green lights EU law which improves information exchange between law enforcement authorities   The Council today adopted EU rules to make it easier for national law enforcement authorities to exchange information and fight crime more effectively. Under the new rules, member states in possession of information concerning a serious criminal offence must make this available to other member states' law enforcement authorities. Equivalent access to information The information exchange directive which ministers adopted today lays down the principle that foreign police bodies should be able to access information related to criminal offences available in another country under the same conditions as law enforcement authorities of that country. Single contact points Member states will have a single point of contact (SPOC), which will be operational 24/7, for information exchanges with other EU countries. The directive also stipulates the deadlines for making information available to police authorities of another country. In certain urgent cases, the requested information should be made available within eight hours. Streamlined communication channels The new EU law will also remedy the current proliferation of communication channels used for law enforcement information exchanges between member states (which hinders the adequate and rapid exchange of such information and increases the risks concerning the security of personal data). This is why relevant authorities will be obliged to use Europol’s secure information exchange network application (SIENA) – a platform which enables the swift and user-friendly exchange of operational and strategic crime-related information.

• New books April 2023

Highlights:

• Completing a genuine economic and monetary union

”This book examines efforts to strengthen economic and monetary union in the European Union, especially over the last decade, asking if enough has been done to render it more sustainable and resilient.”

• La coopération loyale dans le droit des relations extérieures de l'Union Européenne

”Principe constitutionnel de l’Union européenne, la coopération loyale a façonné le modèle d’intégration européenne qui s’édifie autour d’un réseau d’obligations réciproques entre ses différents acteurs unis par un lien de solidarité.”

• Flexible Europe : differentiated integration, fairness, and democracy

”The European Union is often portrayed as sacrificing national diversity for European unity. This book explores the alternative of a flexible EU based on differentiated rather than uniform integration.”

• Europe's coming of age

”European integration has had many successes and failures, Brexit being one of the biggest failures. Despite the setbacks, the EU has been acquiring more functions and members and has now reached a stage where it needs to become a political adult.”

• Russian politics today : stability and fragility

”An international and diverse team of experts presents the most comprehensive available account of the evolution of Russian politics in the post-Soviet era, providing the tools for interpreting the past and the present while also offering a template for understanding future developments.”

• Propagation of misinformation in social media : a cross-platform analysis

”There is growing awareness about how social media circulate extreme viewpoints and turn up the temperature of public debate. Posts that exhibit agitation garner disproportionate engagement. Within this clamour, fringe sources and viewpoints are mainstreaming, and mainstream media are marginalized.”
