Experts have told UK newspaper Express that the bloc must change immediately as 2018 was one of its worst years ever.
“This year was punctuated by the rise of many anti-European sovereignist governments with the most iconic coming to power could be in Italy with Matteo Salvini’s victory,” Arnaud Touati, co-founder of Paris-based law firm Alto Avocats, told the Express.
“The extremely complicated negotiations concerning the exit of the UK from the EU adds to the turmoil. The discussions seem to lead to a dead end. Therefore, an atmosphere of uncertainty has established itself throughout the continent.
“There, you have the two key elements that make 2018 one of the worst years in the history of the Union,” Touati added.
Another expert, a honorary professor of Warwick university, sees the downfall of EU icons Merkel and Macron as a trigger for the EU’s terrible year.
