Publication date: 2026-05-06
In a keynote speech at the Adenauer Foundation, Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul proposed a fundamental reform of the decision-making processes within the European Union. Wadephul emphasized that the current unanimity principle in EU foreign policy should be abolished to allow for more efficient decision-making. He argued that a group of states willing to take the lead should initiate reforms. This could help enhance the EU's ability to act on the international stage and respond more swiftly to global challenges.
