New EU’s perspectives: effects for Baltic States

In mid-July the new EU Commission President announced new priorities for the whole EU with a consequence that all the states including those in the Baltics have to turn these priorities into the national political-economic order. The Union’s strategic planning is clear and the EU member states’ leaders agreed on the agenda, though some 3-4 – mostly eastern European states - did not see these priorities as “nationally acceptable”. But then democracy won and the priorities were accepted!
