In April 2025, @AtlanticCouncil published pieces about pro-democracy movements in Hungary, Serbia, Georgia, & Turkey. The point was that the future may not belong to nationalist authoritarians, as is often feared. Since then, pro-democracy forces have won elections in Hungary and, tonight, in Serbia. @ACEurope @NEDemocracy atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ne…

Four contests for democracy in Europe challenge the narrative of advancing authoritarianism

In Georgia, Hungary, Serbia, and Turkey, pro-democracy demonstrators are taking to the streets in massive numbers. But how long will the upsurge last?

📖 NEW REPORT The EU is frequently presented as a declining power, but how does it actually stack up against competitors such as the US and China? @piotrarak and @vtchakarova emphasize the 🇪🇺's strengths and its power in our latest report. Read more: atlanticcouncil.org/in-depth…

The European Union as a compound power in Cold War 2.0

Contrary to the prevailing narrative, the European Union has the economic power and strategic vision to act as a credible major power. Willingness to act is the missing piece.
