Moderator Christian Frommelt from @LieInstitut has just introduced Axel Dittmann (@GermanyonBrexit) from @GermanyDiplo to explain #EU2020DE's approach to #Brexit: "to get a good deal in the remaining time that satisfies both sides"
/2
"For us, the political declaration remains the guiding principle"
Axel Dittmann from @GermanyDiplo breaks down #EU2020DE's approach to #Brexit
/3
Alex Dittmann is currently describing the challenges facing the EU-UK relationships going forward: the hole left by #Brexit in the MFF, and the question of future cooperation on issues of foreign policy
/4
We now welcome @BrigidLaffan to expand on a number of topics:
- Effects of #COVID19 on #Brexit and @BorisJohnson's government
- #Differentiation between the UK and EU, and within the UK (eg. "Scotland & N. Ireland are being taken out against their will")
- And much more...
/5
After a fascinating insight from @BrigidLaffan, our moderator brings in Frank Schimmelfennig from @IEP_Berlin and @ETH_en, a real expert on the topic of #DifferentiatedIntegration
#InDivEU #PPC
/6
Frank Schimmelfennig expanded on the effects of #Brexit on #differentiation: the strongest "opt-out" Member State is now gone - what will this mean for the future European integration?
/7
.@FundaTekin17 from @IEP_Berlin is now elaborating on Frank Schimmelfennig's contribution, by looking into the @IdeaEu project's research on EU external differentiation
/8
Looks like DiCE just got a shout-out at #PPCBerlin💪
We bring together the best experts on #Differentiation: #InDivEU, @EU3Dh2020, and @IdeaEu
/9
"How likely is external differentiation to be the new normal? Well, it would create an asymmetric relationship between the EU and the third country, so a clear 'border' dividing line will likely remain"
- @FundaTekin17 from @IEP_Berlin
/10
"#Brexit has sparked a debate in Europe and beyond: #Turkey for instance saw an opportunity to pursue a 'privileged partnership', but this remains unlikely"
@FundaTekin17 describes how Brexit has begun a wider conversation on new models of integration
/11
#PPCBerlin is now opening the floor of the #InDivEU panel to questions: YOU can ask @GermanyonBrexit, @BrigidLaffan, @FundaTekin17, and Frank Schimmelfennig anything you want on the topic of #Brexit and #DifferentiatedIntegration 💪
/12
Our speakers are currently receiving so many great questions from the audience - in fact the #InDivEU panel is being overwhelmed by this fascinating discussion on #Brexit and #Differentiation!
/13
"These are topics of relevance, they need to be discussed"
Christian Frommelt from @LieInstitut closes the #InDivEU panel by highlighting the importance of #PPCBerlin in engaging a European conversation on the most important issues facing the EU
