The President of UEF, MEP Sandro Gozi and the President of UEF Austria, MEP Lukas Mandl  assess this year's State of the European Union address from a federalist perspective.

In a historic speech, the European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen clearly supported the call for a Convention to draft new European Traties, just like the European Parliament requested on 9 June.

But is this support enough? What are the next steps before the Convention can take place? What are the demands and propositions of the federalists?

The event is moderated by the journalist Dr. Nana Walzer.

With federalist regards,

Secretary General of the UEF
