parliament is elected by 720 deputies, although this was not always the case; until 1979, the european chamber was formed by delegating parliamentarians from national parliaments, the number of parliamentarians from each country being proportional to the population. germany. the most populous country in the european union will receive 96 seats. france has 81, while malta, cyprus and luxembourg have only six each. eu citizens have the right to be elected to the european parliament not only in their own, but in any state of the union where they live. in most countries you can vote from the age of eighteen, in greece from 17, in germany, austria, belgium and malta even from sixteen. still. there is no uniform law

on elections, so deputies are elected according to national legislation, voters in each country vote for national parties, their candidates are then distributed among european factions. a member of the european parliament cannot be a member of the national government or parliament, nor hold positions in the institutions of the european union. at the first plenary meeting, which will be held from june 16 to 19, the deputies will elect a chairman european parliament. the period of his powers is 2 and a half years. and in september, deputies will have to decide on a candidate for the post of head of the european commission. this post is currently occupied by ursula vonderijn. the european parliament, in fact, is the only institution of the european union that is elected by direct voting. the european council consists of ministers and heads of government of european countries. the second and

most influential - the european commission, actually consists of officials appointed by the governments of the eu countries. the uniqueness of the european parliament is that its deputies are not can propose new laws themselves, that is , they do not have the right of legislative initiative, they only consider bills introduced by the european commission. at the same time, they can rule and even kill the project. and most importantly, they approve the composition of the european commission. her head. the european parliament is primarily interesting as a barometer of the social atmosphere in the old world. he votes with his heart in these elections, because the state of europeans’ wallets practically does not depend on the composition of the high assembly. in the national parliament it is necessary to choose the minds of those who have management experience and will not fall apart.

and despite the fact that the founding documents did not provide for the creation of factions in the european parliament, after the first meetings, deputies began to adhere not to their national identity, but to vote in accordance with their political affiliation. this is how political groups or factions were formed. in the current parliament there were seven of them, plus a separate group of deputies without a faction. these include, for example, the german party, which... that's the name of the party, from her

two are running: its leader, the founder of the satirical magazine titanic, martin sonnerborn and the playwright sebilleberg. the party first entered parliament in 2014 with provocative slogans: fence off switzerland with a wall, put angela merkel on trial , or introduce a quota for slackers in leadership positions in the german economy. this year, among other things. the party proposes to finally divide germany, create two atomic bombs, freeze beer prices , leave short-haul flights only for birds, insects, ursula vonder and singer taylor swift. the posters say: vote for the party, it is very good, other parties are even worse. the hungarian two-tailed dog party and its candidate, drawn.

now the party has the right to receive funds from the budget and air time on a state channel. this is how the party representative answered the presenter’s questions in 2018. marine lepin's party, together with the far right from germany, austria and belgium, is part of the group identity and democracy. it is projected to be more than double ahead of emmanuel macron's party. revival from the faction "renewing europe." in pre-election polls , the european people's party faction looks good so far. as the politician notes, its members are something like republicans, but against weapons in people's hands, for the european choice for

nato. it has the largest faction in the european parliament. center-left the progressive alliance of socialists and democrats sees the main threat to democracy in the far-right forces. their program focuses on the strategic autonomy of the eu and improving the living standards of eu citizens. the european green party unites almost 40 parties out of 34. european countries. its members call for voting against the far right for a green europe. the program has 12 points, including a 100% transition to renewable energy sources by 2040. protection of the social and gender. equality, as well as providing housing and healthy, organic food for all. european conservatives and reformists promise to return common sense to europe. in their manifesto , they go against the mainstream, promising to resist excessive political correctness and

environmental extremism, european bureaucracy and demographic challenge. issues, considerable success will accompanies those who in europe are usually called populists or the extreme right. protest parties, as a rule, have a eurosceptic orientation. their success, albeit relative, will be a wake-up call to the liberal-conservative stream that we are going in the wrong direction. now, however, it is not obvious that the mainstream is able to perceive signals and draw conclusions. in today's europe there are quite a few controversial and even polarizing topics. our regular author eduard shillin traveled to greece to understand one of the local ideological conflicts. athens morning

is the smell of coffee and fresh bread. in the capital of greece, bakeries are found at every step, selling everything from fragrant buns to delicious baklava. more often, perhaps, only churches are found.

some made a decision, others said ohhi or not, in greek. the representation of the pereian metropolitan of the church of elada, which is headed by a resolute opponent of the legalization

of gay marriage, metropolitan seraphim of piraeus, does not at all resemble the headquarters of the resistance, but the metropolitan, although not a commander, sees in the adoption of the law of the beginning of a new crusade.

this is a covered building with many trading places, mountains of meat and fish, loud voices and sellers in every way inviting buyers, rohan was born in neighboring albania, but as he says, he grew up in this market and considers it his home, he not only heard about the law, but even. .. took part in a demonstration against its adoption. what can i say? i think that for the most part , gay politicians rule us, not only in greece, but in other european countries. and the church now doesn’t blame only lazy. despite eu lobbying, greece remains one of the most conservative countries in europe, where the traditional family model still prevails and many priests consider homosexuality a deviance. however, it took the greeks only 9 years to go from legalizing same-sex partnerships to

legalizing gay marriage. absolutely unacceptable, adults can do whatever they want with each other, but children need a dad and mom. father and mother. only this way, and nothing else. typically, ancient greek temples the main façade was facing east, towards the sun. the parthenon is no exception, though where. the second is to preserve the international role of europe, which began to be lost after those very wars.

the unification of the economic interests of the potentials was supposed to answer both questions. it pretty much worked. if we now proceed from the same two main goals, the result is the opposite. firstly, he is shaking with pre-war fever. and it is the result of euro-atlantic expansion, part of which... was the expansion of the eu. the spread of the stability zone has turned expansion of the space of shocks, external and internal. secondly, europe’s independent importance in international affairs has, perhaps, never been curtailed as much as it is now. the eu does not hesitate to sacrifice its own benefits by adopting american views. this did not happen even at the height of the cold war. naturally, this has an impact. on the economic situation, but integration has always been sold as a product extremely

beneficial to every citizen, now, apparently, we will have to sell militarization under the same sauce, it will be stolen by the crisis, this is no longer the russian-ukrainian conflict, from the very beginning, i believe that campriz simply provoked. the us is in order to take advantage of this crisis.

a threat when europe achieves independence, strategic, the end of hegemony, because it is imperative to always take europe under your control, as in its time, when it was created what is needed, what is needed?

thoughtful foreign policy commentators in beijing. recently, he, along with a large group of colleagues, visited moscow for the annual conference of the russian international affairs council. us policy towards russia and china are built on the basis of erroneous strategic forecasting. and the famous book by bryzhitsky. a big chessboard, he simply didn’t expect that russia could launch such an attack, a strategic one, a general one in ukraine, i think expansion can be calming expansion is necessary, you see, remember, the book

says that russia should still be divided into three parts, european, siberian . and the far east, russia today gives the answer, in this book, he said that this book was published in 1997, there if china by 2020 volume of the world bank, maximum 2 trillion, twice, twice... this is not a threat to the united states. china will not become a competitor. in 1997, china's gdp was somewhere around 900.70 billion. 1 trillion. and in 920, 14, even more,

trillion. seven times more. than her forecast, so it began to have an impact on china, no matter what the reason, threat or simply does not want to, it appeared, this is what appeared , another competitor appeared, this is sino -american relations, it is not that china is occupying behind the american politics, no china really wants to fix things. normal, mutually beneficial relationships, they just don’t respect us. immediately after the elections to the european parliament, the so-called peace conference on ukraine will be held in switzerland. there will be no gloss; prominent representatives of non-western countries could not be persuaded to discuss zelensky’s formula, although this was the idea.

some propaganda effect occurs. issues that concern the global south were specifically left on the agenda. find possible points of contact where we could start political process, let's say.

no matter the pressure on anyone, we are still trying to somehow find, as i say, possible such points of contact and gradually begin, that is, gradually move on to a possible political settlement, so now apparently we don’t see how such signs would be obvious.

the default scenario, and such a scenario is dangerous primarily because it almost inevitably leads to a collision, and the more advanced the stage it happens, the less chance there is of avoiding it by turning to another track. how the extreme crisis itself will end, i don’t know, for me it’s a disaster, because it’s really murder, china didn’t make a choice between russians, ukrainians, russia and ukraine, both countries are friendly, our strategic partners, today’s picture from the incident according to the chinese saying , this is

de, this is an incident that, behind which loved ones, hurt, enemies, joyfully, and i would like to end this war now, like this. this was an international review, see you, this is sasha, it is important for him that his friends are nearby, maxim always says yes to his friends, mash. will help at any moment, and vanya will never keep you waiting. start a cool career at
