iGlobeViews Episode 7 (23 April 2026): iGlobenews (www.iglobenews.org) Editor-in-Chief, Diana Mautner Markhof, discusses with top China expert Professor Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik, the future of Europe and the EU. Will it find a path towards unity and relevance or remain divided and irrelevant? Why does Europe need Russia as an enemy? Is there a third way becoming apparent? The recent vote in Bulgaria would argue for this. How should the EU deal with Turkey? Is Ursula von der Leyen really the right person for the job? How is the EU dealing with the blatant double standard when dealing with Israel? Why can it not come to decision to suspend the EU Israel Association Agreement? Compare this to how Russia was treated after it invaded Ukraine. Why are European countries cracking down on freedom of speech and assembly? The power of the Brussels swamp and the unelected EU leadership are more and more disconnected from the average citizen. Will EU enlargement not lead to even more division among member states? Can the EU use its economic power to regain relevance? Who will lead the EU as the US pulls back?
