Hungary can’t pick and choose EU positions abroad, top court says after cannabis vote
Budapest's deviation from the official EU stance at the U.N. — to keep cannabis classified at the same level as heroin — sparked a sharp rebuke from judges at the bloc's highest court.

Can a Member State vote against an EU common position at the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs on the ground that it considers that position unlawful?

We are opening an investigation into Grok because we believe that X may have breached the DSA.

We have seen antisemitic content, non-consensual deepfakes of women, and child sexual abuse material.

In Europe, no company will make money by violating our fundamental rights.

Who invented the term 'trade bazooka'?

It seems a bit misleading for a legal instrument involving various steps and procedures

In aanloop naar de Europese top van morgen is er veel te doen over de 'handelsbazooka' van de #EU. Die term is misleidend, het gaat over een juridische procedure met verschillende stappen, zie: eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/

António Costa will miss a meeting with Brazil's Lula today because his flight was cancelled at the last minute.

But the European Council president will make it to Paraguay to sign the long-awaited EU-Mercosur trade agreement.
