Could Europe’s autumn of discontent threaten the survival of the EU? | Catherine De Vries

Europe is experiencing an autumn of discontent, with widespread protests and growing anger among citizens. This discontent is fueled by a sense of disillusionment with governments' inability to address pressing issues such as unaffordable housing, stagnant wages, and the rising cost of living. If the EU fails to demonstrate the benefits of cooperation and address these concerns, it may face increased scrutiny and potentially even threats to its survival. The economic and social implications of this discontent could have far-reaching consequences for the EU's stability and the global economy.

Why it matters

Protests in Europe could turn against the EU if it fails to show benefits of cooperation. This could lead to a decline in investor confidence and market instability.
