One aspect that is not often mentioned since the European elections in May 2019, or since the appointments of the members of the new Commission in July and the formation of the new Commission in September, is that we are witnessing an obvious demonstration of the strength of the European institutions.

1989, as is well-known, is the year of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the end of the cold war, and the beginning, at least in hopes, of a new phase of European and world history. But the walls, broadly understood as more or less armed barriers to the free movement of people, have since then, according to a study by the University of Quebec carried out in 2016, at least tripled, from 15 to 63 on all continents, Europe included, involving 67 states as a whole.

The sole purpose of this paper is to formulate a specific proposal on the voting system for European elections that is compatible with the long-term vision of emergence of transnational parties.

Chapter VIII of the UN Charter represents the legal basis for the involvement of regional organizations in maintaining international peace and security, a task which is (or should be) the main purpose of the UN Security Council.

Perhaps not friends but at least both student activists in the world federalist – world citizen movement, especially in their international dimension.
