Series
Overseeing Kosovo’s conditional independence

Kosovo’s path to independence
Kosovo’s independence has become an irreversible fact, even if Serbia, Russia, and some other countries persist in their denial of reality
What India thinks of Europe

What does Israel think about the European Union?

Will Europe’s bloody summer change migration policy?
With every terrorist attack, anti-migration parties will have a larger platform, but they will struggle to change policy
Time’s up: China’s coming battle for market economy status
Two new publications from the European Council of Foreign Relations look at the real issues behind the question of market economy status
Britain’s sovereignty chestnut
Die-hard sovereigntists may wish to preserve the Englishman’s historic right to bathe in his own sewage, or be treated in A&E by an exhausted doctor – most of us will be glad that EU membership from time to time pushes our own authorities to do the right thing
