With treaty changes, we can ensure that qualified majority voting replaces the paralysis of unanimity. If we abolish the veto, Europe can finally act swiftly and decisively on the issues that matter most to citizens, from securing our shared energy supply and defense to tackling the cost of living and the climate crisis. Europe\u2019s future is no longer held hostage to the least ambitious government in the room.\u201dSven Franck, Co-President of Volt Europa: “We will never have 27 pro-European governments at the same time. Treaty changes provide the timeframe and opportunity to engage and involve citizens in the process of deepening cooperation from defence and security to economic integration.“Only European leaders will move Europe forward. This is why Volt Europa will act on two fronts: building the next generation of European political leaders while also offering a platform for progressive, forward thinking minds keen on building the future Europe Union. Volt is the only European political party in its purest sense and its new leadership will focus on building momentum towards the 2029 European elections. .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 , .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .postImageUrl , .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .centered-text-area { min-height: 80px; position: relative; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 , .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:hover , .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:visited , .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:active { border:0!important; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .clearfix:after { content: \"\"; display: table; clear: both; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 { display: block; transition: background-color 250ms; webkit-transition: background-color 250ms; width: 100%; opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; background-color: #8E44AD; box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -o-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:active , .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; background-color: #8E44AD; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .centered-text-area { width: 100%; position: relative; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .ctaText { border-bottom: 0 solid #fff; color: #000000; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-decoration: underline; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .postTitle { color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 100%; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .ctaButton { background-color: #9B59B6!important; color: #000000; border: none; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: none; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 26px; moz-border-radius: 3px; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; text-shadow: none; width: 80px; min-height: 80px; background: url(https:\/\/www.bachhausen.de\/wp-content\/plugins\/intelly-related-posts\/assets\/images\/simple-arrow.png)no-repeat; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:hover .ctaButton { background-color: #9B59B6!important; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .centered-text { display: table; height: 80px; padding-left: 18px; top: 0; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255 .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255-content { display: table-cell; margin: 0; padding: 0; padding-right: 108px; position: relative; vertical-align: middle; width: 100%; } .u5c6730cbb7456096cc20bfc755908255:after { content: \"\"; display: block; clear: both; } Auch interessant:  Standortpolitik?
