Abstract
In a complex geopolitical context of increasing threats, the conference will address the international security issues facing the EU from a legal perspective. The constitutional framework of the EU, such as the division of competences, the distribution of institutional powers and judicial review, will be discussed, as well as the various instruments that the EU can adopt in view of the EU’s objective of balancing respect for its fundamental values and the defense of its interests in its external action.
Discussants:
- Prof. Peter Van Elsuwege, Ghent University
- Dr. Luigi Lonardo, University College Cork
