№079. The Black Sea as Epicentre of the Aftershocks of the EU’s Earthquake

Author(s): Michael Emerson / Language(s): English

Keywords: Black Sea ; Danube basin; EU-Constitution; EU-Referendum;

CEPS Senior Research Fellow Michael Emerson asserts that the aftershocks of the EU’s failed referenda on the European Constitution will be most sharply felt – in an external sense – in the Black Sea region. He describes how Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey, Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia were the first hit by the tremors. But he traces its effects further than that, up the Danube basin to Belgrade, across the Caucasus to Armenia and Azerbaijan, and last but certainly not least up to Russia. For all the states that have been espousing long-term EU membership aspirations – including all of the above, except Russia –the author recommends they take time out for a reality check. For Russia, which had not anticipated this upset in the EU, it may be interpreted not so much a time for a rethink, as an encouragement not to have a rethink. For these states (in different degrees), there is a new question of strategic importance and the name of the game has changed. Emerson is keen to explore whether the EU’s hugely successful political conditionality machine and gravitational powers of attraction, as evidenced in its recent enlargement, can continue to operate with some variant model of virtual, functional membership? Or, if not, he asks whether the prospects for the deepening and consolidation of democracy in these regions are going to be seriously prejudiced? Date of Publishing: July 1, 2005

№098. What should the Community of Democratic Choice do?

Author(s): Michael Emerson / Language(s): English

Keywords: democracy; human rights; civil society; community of democratic choice;

In August 2005, President Saakashvili of Georgia and President Yushchenko of Ukraine met at Borjomi, Georgia, and decided to launch an initiative to promote democracy among a community of like-minded states of Central and Eastern Europe. This led to a meeting in Kyiv on 2 December 2005, of a wider group of countries of the Baltic-Black-Caspian Sea region, which adopted a declaration announcing the creation of a Community of Democratic Choice (CDC) as a governmental and non-governmental forum to promote the strengthening of democracy, human rights and civil society. The next meeting of the CDC will take place as a Baltic and Black Sea Summit in Vilnius in May 2006.

№128. The European Union’s Strategic Role in Central Asia

№128. The European Union’s Strategic Role in Central Asia

№128. The European Union’s Strategic Role in Central Asia

Author(s): Neil Melvin / Language(s): English

Keywords: Central Asia; EU; foreign policy;

For the first time since the collapse of communism, the EU is facing a strategic challenge in its external policies. The rise of Russia and China as international actors – with India close behind – and the growing confidence of some leading regional powers, such as Iran, are creating a serious threat to the EU’s ambition to apply external policies that reflect European values. Against this background, the employment of the democracy – promotion agenda developed during the 1990s is unlikely to be effective and may even serve to weaken the position of the EU in key regions. This situation demands an urgent and far-reaching rethink of the approach the Union takes to external relations. If the EU is to remain a serious global actor, it will have to find ways to reconcile the imperative of engaging in difficult regions beyond the immediate European neighbourhood while also remaining true to the values of the Union.

№148. The New EU Strategy towards Central Asia: A View from the Region

Author(s): Nargis Kassenova / Language(s): English

Keywords: Central Asia; EU strategy; foreign policy; security policy;

The German Presidency of the EU in the first half of 2007 inspired great hopes regarding the development of relations between the European Union and the states of Central Asia. In Brussels and other European capitals, it was expected that Germany, as an EU political and economic heavyweight and one of the key promoters of the Common Foreign and Security Policy, would be able to foster a coordinated Central Asian policy giving direction and coherence to European engagement in the region. It was widely hoped – within both the governments of Central Asia and the societies of the region – that Germany, which has traditionally been the most pro-active European country in the region, would elevate the relations between the EU and Central Asian states to a higher level.

№232. How to assess a rotating presidency of the Council under new Lisbon rules

Author(s): Piotr Maciej Kaczyński / Language(s): English

Keywords: Lisbon rules; rotating presidency of the Council; Hungary; Council of the European Union; administrative capacity;

On 1 January 2011, Hungary, the third member of the European Union to join the club in 2004, took overthe presidency of the Council of the European Union. This represents the first presidency of a newer member state under Lisbon Treaty rules. After the new treaty entered into force on 1 December 2009, all rotating presidencies are, in a sense, first time presidencies. Their relative success now depends more on administrative ability than political leadership.

№247. An evaluation of the French proposal for a restructuring of Greek debt

Author(s): Christian Kopf / Language(s): English

Keywords: French proposal; Restruction of Greek debt; French commercial banks; Greek government;

French commercial banks are proposing a swap of €85.5 billion in Greek government bonds maturing between 2011 and 2014 into a combination of new long-term Greek bonds with principal guarantee and cash payments. If this initiative were implemented under the proposed parameters, private creditors would only suffer a minimal haircut and official lenders would be provided with cash-flow relief of around €20 billion over the next three years, but the solvency of the Hellenic Republic would worsen significantly.

№269. The Euro Crisis: Implications for the Internal Market and Harmonisation of Corporate Taxes

Author(s): Herman Onno Ruding / Language(s): English

Keywords: Euro Crisis; Internal market; Harmonisation of Corporate Taxes; Economic and Monetary Union;

The so-called ‘euro crisis’ is of the utmost economic, financial and political importance for all member countries of the euro area and for the future of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). In my view, however, it is not primarily aeuro crisis in the strict sense. The euro itself is of course involved, but, as a currency with a rather stable exchange rate vis-à-vis other currencies and with a major role in global financial markets,it is not at the heart of the crisis.

№274. An agenda for the European Council. Feasible steps to bring the eurozone back from the precipice

Author(s): Stefano Micossi / Language(s): English

Keywords: European Council; Eurozone; GDP; Monetary policy; Bank restructuring and banking union;

Once again the European Council will meetin an emergency session at the end of June, with the eurozone economy inrecession and actually plummeting in its Southern periphery. Further doubts are also growing on the sustainability of sovereign debts due to the vicious spiral of deteriorating bank balance sheets, ballooning potential liabilities from banking rescues and widening spreads on government borrowings.

№302. The Macroeconomic Imbalance Procedure and Germany: When is a surplus an “imbalance”?

Author(s): Matthias Busse,Daniel Gros / Language(s): English

Keywords: Mcroeconomic imbalance procedure; Germany; Alert Mechanism Report; account balance;

The Macroeconomic Imbalance Procedure (MIP) was largely designed to prevent another boom/bust cycle as occurred in Spain and Ireland. But now, with the release by the European Commission on November 13th of its latest Alert Mechanism Report (AMR), which was introduced with the European Semester, this procedure is being used to address a surplus (that of Germany), which is widely perceived as constituting aproblem for the euro area’s recovery.

№303. Rule of law or rule of thumb? A New Copenhagen Mechanism for the EU

Author(s): Nicholas Hernanz,Elspeth Guild,Sergio Carrera / Language(s): English

Keywords: Rule of Law; New Copenhagen Mechanism; EU;

The EU should establish a new EU supervisory Copenhagen mechanism assessing member states’ compliance with rule of law, fundamental rights and democracy. The mechanism should be a monitoring arm, complementing the current preventive and corrective ones of Article 7 TEU. It would consist of a periodic evaluation or score board of member states’ compliance with Article 2 TEU. No Treaty change would be required. The Commission should coordinate the process. European Council Conclusions should be adopted offering an EU inter-institutional agreement on its features and operability.

№304. The New European Framework for Managing Bank Crises

Author(s): Jacopo Carmassi,Ginevra Bruzzone,Stefano Micossi / Language(s): English

Keywords: New European Framework; Managing Bank Crises; Single Supervisory Mechanism and a Resolution Directive;

The proposals under discussion for a Single Banking Resolution Regulation establishing a centralised mechanism for countries participating in the Single Supervisory Mechanism and a Resolution Directive are generally well designed and coherent. Yet there is a need to streamline the procedures for deciding the start of resolution and managing the subsequent action, which now entail much overlap in the powers attributed to the institutions involved (the Commission, the Single Resolution Board and the European Central Bank).

№305. Strong Governments, Weak Banks

№305. Strong Governments, Weak Banks

Author(s): Yuemei Ji,Paul De Grauwe / Language(s): English

Keywords: Governments; Banks; Eurozone; Fragile banks;

Banks in the northern eurozone have capital ratios that are, on average, less than half of the capital ratios of banks in the eurozone’s periphery. We explain this by the fact that northern eurozone banks profit from the financial solidity of their governments and follow business strategies aimed at issuing too much subsidised debt. In doing so, they weaken their balance sheets and become more fragile – less ableto withstand future shocks. Paradoxically, financially strong governments breed fragile banks. The opposite occurs in countries with financially weak governments. In these countries banks are forced to strengthen themselves because they are unable to rely on their governments. As a result they have significantly more capital and reserves than banks in the northern eurozone.
