    Breakthrough as civil society organisations finally receive legal protection in operating across EU borders

    The European Commission has published its proposal giving legal protections to civil society organisations operating across borders in the EU.

    MEPs miss opportunity to safeguard against corruption following Qatargate

    Members of the European Parliament adopted the special report from the Committee on Foreign Interference (ING2) following the Qatargate scandal.
