E03032 We need integrated rail transport systems, agreements between various railway operators and a simple and accessible search engine in favor of There are countries like Greece to which to my knowledge is no train connection from other EU countries at all.

E03051 The European Union should enforce the energy transition in its member states in favor of why should every country in the EU be sovereign in energy production. Within the countries also not every region is sovereign in this sense. We need to take advantage of the geographic potentials of the european continent for pragmatic solutions 1 1 0
E03066 The European Union's asylum system needs to implement its humanitarian principles in favor of We should think of more opportunities to enter the EU legally. Many people come illegally because we refuse them opportunities to come stay a while for work or education and maybe go back later. People die because of that nonsense. 1 0 0
E03067 The European Union's asylum system needs to implement its humanitarian principles in favor of I recently read that especially African families tend to send their smartest best educated youngsters abroad to improve the family situation. These people are desperately needed both for the future of their home countries and for our future. We need skilled & educated people in many sectors but sends such people back to their home countries because they were unfortunate enough to be refugees. 1 0 0
E03077 We need integrated rail transport systems, agreements between various railway operators and a simple and accessible search engine in favor of It has to work like with air travel: Book a coherent journey from A to B operated by different companies and be sure that if something goes wrong there will be a solution (rebooking ...). 1 0 0

E04034 Europe is getting older and should be open to more migration from Asia, and southeast Asia. in favor of We need to accept more immigrants to combat the aging of the European population. Immigrants do also grow old but before then they generally have children. 1 0 0
E04097 We don't need immigration from non-European or non-first-world countries. in favor of We should halt all immigration from non-European or non-first-world countries into the EU. However if we want to stop this immigration we must stop its causes. Indeed it is war poverty and European Chinese and American neo-colonialism that make the people of African and Middle Eastern countries flee to Europe. So Europe must finally take responsibility and protect these countries from corruption war and neo-colonialism and help them to start their economy. 1 0 0
E04128 There should be 6 concrete proposals for migrants on the Balkan route. in favor of The proposal of the Sardines to reform EU asylum policy is an excellent proposal well and thoroughly written. 1 0 0
E04144 We need a single immigration policy. in favor of We do need migrants from an ethical and practical point of view. Europe is old and archaic in most of its practices. Innovation is failing and the best we can do is defend the status quo and the old people in power. 1 0 0

E05002 The EU should focus more on ensuring the success of the internal market, and on improving its competitiveness in favor of Whenever you find yourself in crisis and the EU is in crisis it is a good idea to return to core business. And in the case of the EU the core business is economy trade and security. Thats where the focus should be. 1 0 1
E05004 The EU should focus more on ensuring the success of the internal market, and on improving its competitiveness in favor of The Covid-19 pandemic showed us that the European Union is not able to come up with technological innovations that could strengthen our economic position. 1 1 1
E05010 The EU should equalize the retirement age for all Europeans. in favor of The standardized retirement age would not only be fairer in an open market but it would also (and even more so in the future) prevent any complexities with being paid their retirement for those who have made their contributions in different Member States throughout their lives. Even though there is to be at least a central system for this (a step in the right direction) one will only receive a share of ones retirement from a particular Member State once one reaches the retirement age of that Member State. 1 0 1
E05013 The EU should improve public management and anti-corruption mechanisms in favor of The EU needs to focus on simplifying and standardizing European processes and procedures associated with public management and creating efficient and effective anti-corruption mechanisms.

E05028 The president of the European Commission should be elected by the people of the EU in favor of The undemocratic nature and perception of the presidency and the commission were used very effectively during the Brexit referendum campaign to change the minds of even the most reasonable pro-EU and anti-Brexit voters as EU political representatives were already remote and inaccessible to many people with unrecognized names faces and campaign points. 1 1 0
E05029 The president of the European Commission should be elected by the people of the EU in favor of Having leaders with great power across Europe that nobody directly voted for is of great concern. Unless the EU radically democratizes the presidency (creating the position which failed several referenda) as well as the commission it will be used again and again to stoke anti-EU sentiment. 1 0 0
E05030 The EU should set up physical offices, where citizens can address their concerns about Europe in favor of As we are transitioning into a more extensive digital age every day we still should not forget that as we age it gets harder to be quick with digital news information and advances in society. Therefore even right now our current older generations and future older generations need a physical touch point where competent people would be able to introduce on the spot what that one person as a citizen of the European Union can do that exact day to influence the benefit of Europe and their country. 1 0 0
E05047 The European Union needs to equip itself with the institutional and legal tools to resolve democratic conflicts on sovereignty within its own borders. in favor of Europe was composed of 13 countries in 1870 and 23 in 1914. Maybe its time to change borders without bloodshed. 1 0 0
E05052 The European Union needs to equip itself with the institutional and legal tools to resolve democratic conflicts on sovereignty within its own borders. in favor of We live in the XXI century. We do not want any repression of peripheries by their state center. Within the European Union we should welcome the blessing of decentralism and localism including the self-determination of stateless peoples and stronger autonomies within confederal agreements. If not in Europe where. If not now when. 1 0 0
E05055 The EU should synchronize national elections in favor of National elections synchronization would finally make it possible to strengthen the effectiveness of the Council of the EU by eliminating the blockages caused by the constant renewal of Ministers which considerably slows down decision-making. 1 0 0
E05060 We need to ensure improvements to the European Union's decision-making processes with increased transparency and accountability in favor of Decision-making is today made unilaterally minding short-term economic interests and employers demands.

E05068 The European Union needs to equip itself with the institutional and legal tools to resolve democratic conflicts on sovereignty within its own borders. in favor of Self-determination is a basic collective human right. Catalans practiced this right in 2017. Since then the Catalan Republic is kidnaped by Spanish lawfare with the elected president Puigdemont in exile within Europe and more than 3000 Catalan activists suffering political persecution as a consequence. Ignoring this conflict within the core of Europe by European Institutions can undermine the EU at its very start. If you sincerely believe in human rights recognize the Catalan Republic officially. This crucial step will enforce European democracy the Democracy of Citizens that feel free and respected within European borders. 1 0 0
E05088 There is a necessity for a European framework for the free movement of intensivists in favor of The pandemic has put European Intensive Care Units (ICUs) under extreme pressure. The most important lesson learned early on in the chaos of the pandemic was that equipment and medicines are necessary to save lives but without adequately trained human resources these elements are irrelevant. Ventilators don’t operate themselves. We saw patients in very critical condition being moved away from their families from one Member State to another to receive treatment while allowing the doctors to move would be much more efficient and less life-threatening for the patients. 1 0 0
E05107 Rural areas should become more attractive for life and work in favor of It seems like a no-brainer to say something like this but actually the way we handle soil must change massively to halt the climate crisis and mitigate its consequences. Thus we need to recultivate and restore abandoned and contaminated places and shift agriculture to regenerative agriculture or restoration agriculture. We need to stabilize family farms and make them ecologically financially and socially sustainable. We need between big and medium-sized farms and also highly productive smallholder farms and wildlife reservoirs. This all depends on a lot of labor engaged people and legal and conceptual infrastructure. Having all this in place will foster urban areas as well. 1 0 0

E05120 We need to move towards drug reform, which will change our outdated drug policy. in favor of Tax revenues generated by cannabis could be redirected towards education in poor neighborhoods (increasing teachers pay in these areas reducing the number of teachers per class) in order to give these populations a better future. But unlike in the Netherlands production should also be legal and highly regulated by the state. 1 0 1
E05121 Public transport in EU cities should be free in favor of I think a very good transportation system within European cities is very much desirable. There is not enough space for many parking lots anyway electro-cars wont be able to replace common cars and urban spaces have to become greener. In order for many people to accept that the use of cars will have been a thing of the past they should be offered very good alternatives in the future and hopefully appreciate green mobility through good public transport within urban areas. 1 0 0
E05122 Public transport in EU cities should be free in favor of The incentive to provide free public transport in European cities in the future would make it easier for people especially in the cities to accept and appreciate that there will be fewer and fewer cars. People who benefit from current examples are happy about it. 1 0 0
E05124 We need a European Clinical Registries Platform in favor of A common digital platform where data will be recorded in an anonymized way could also be very helpful for the future not only in case of new pandemic situations. However as data itself has a market value and as we have learned about the global interdependency in an emergency situation e.g. with vaccines no company should capitalize on this data. The data should be accessible for public research and used for monitoring public health e.g. by European institutions 1 0 0

E05133 Alternative medicine should be more accepted in favor of Traditional complementary and integrative medicine is a safe and efficient way to improve well-being and happiness and prevent illness. Also an innumerable amount of people have got significant palliation or even total cure in cases which the official health care system unfortunately couldnt help. This is clearly an area where countries civilizations and schools of thought could learn a lot from each other. 1 0 0
E05145 The EU needs a European research center in favor of I think the problem in the EU is the incompetence to establish inventions in the market. There are lots of inventions that are made and funded by public EU research facilities brought into the market by small startups. In the end they are picked like ripe fruits by the US or Chinese companies where the big money is made. 1 0 1
E06020 The EU should enforce the obligation to respect the Rule of Law within its borders in favor of Current concerns about rule of law infringements are simply being brushed off as national matters. If this continues how can the EU assume authority to promote democracy abroad. More strict and enforceable minimum standards must be introduced under clearly increasing penalties for non-compliance. If shared values and democracy are indeed a requisite to be a part of the EU then continued adherence should be a precondition to remain a part of it. 1 1 0
E06075 The EU needs more effective policies to combat online hate speech in favor of Yes the European Union needs effective policies to combat online hate speech and these need to be regularly updated as technology evolves and to take into account worldwide learning on how to effectively combat online hate speech. 1 0 0

E06091 All workers and unemployed should have access to social protection, including young people in favor of The situation of young people is difficult. Temporary jobs precarious contracts civic contracts replacing regular employment forced self-employment lack of basic social protection and even age-discriminatory practices (also on the basis of age) are still the norm for millions of young people who are trying to make their way in the labor market. They need urgent help. 1 0 0
E06092 Esperanto should replace English as the first foreign language in schools and universities in favor of Esperanto is politically neutral: it is not used by any European nation.

E06093 Esperanto should replace English as the first foreign language in schools and universities in favor of To build a common European understanding and to create a European identity we need our own common language. 1 1 0
E06094 Esperanto should replace English as the first foreign language in schools and universities in favor of Esperanto is linguistically neutral: The language was created with the principle of internationality in a European context. It’s democratic: There are no native speakers of Esperanto or better yet not any monolingual speakers of Esperanto. Everyone has to learn it as a second language. As a result of this nobody will have an advantage over others and nobody can feel like a stranger since nobody can feel like a native. Everyone is respected regardless of their origin and not discouraged from learning the language. 1 0 0
E06095 All workers and unemployed should have access to social protection, including young people in favor of I agree. Young people should have a voice in policymaking. Regulation needs to reduce forms of precarious work. It is time to expand collective bargaining coverage to all forms of work.

E06098 All workers and unemployed should have access to social protection, including young people in favor of We see this problem in many countries and the situation is getting worse - the pandemic also took its toll. Stable quality jobs and adequate social protection are necessary if we dont want to see a great strain on social systems in the long term. 1 0 0
E06099 All workers and unemployed should have access to social protection, including young people in favor of To prevent precarious conditions we must put in place quality standards they must be binding for all jobs created under EU and National recovery plans. Better monitoring and trade union involvement are needed to assess and report youth unemployment and NEET rates. At the moment these numbers hide forced mobility involuntary part-time employment and work in a grey and informal economy. Urgent measures are needed to fight youth unemployment and precarious working conditions in sectors where young people are overrepresented (tourism; gig economy…). 1 0 0
E06100 All workers and unemployed should have access to social protection, including young people in favor of I agree. Stable quality jobs and adequate social protection for everyone are necessary.

E07006 Imprisonment of foreign criminals should be carried out in their country in favor of This will relieve the European prison system. This would encourage many migrants to take responsibility for the laws of the host countries. 1 0 0
E07027 There should be a stronger partnership between the EU and the African Union in favor of Maybe while helping economic integration in Africa to happen we will discover that we could go further in our own EU development. We could foster transnational companies which operate on both continents but not primarily the very big ones. I think of companies that supply solar power solutions to rural areas or microcredit banks. Create platforms where best choice and best practice solutions can evolve. This way we can establish a single common market. 1 0 0

E07045 There should be a stronger partnership between the EU and the African Union in favor of With highly subsidized agricultural products the EU destroys local markets in African countries. This procedure should be stopped as soon as possible. EU agricultural subsidies should be replaced with incentives and support for a sustainable transition. The earlier we abandon these unfair and highly unsustainable subsidies the better for our own future health social development and climate future. Also this will lead to a better relationship with African Union and enable better livelihoods for African farmers and citizens 1 0 0

E07121 There should be a stronger partnership between the EU and the African Union in favor of Africa has a lot of bright young people with sometimes incredible ideas. If these young people create for example remote learning opportunities for African students we should not only sponsor such projects but make exchange possible for young people in Europe to create similar items for example to foster MINT skills throughout Europe. Give more opportunities for young people from both sides to meet exchange and ventilate new ideas. 1 0 0

E07157 The European Union has no other choice than to reject all immigration, except for workers they need. in favor of Africa and the Middle East have the highest birthrate in the World. Africa has up to 7 children per woman. The EU has 155. It is this high birthrate that keeps them poor. There is almost nothing the EU can do about it. 1 1 1
E07163 The EU should be a permanent member of the UN Security Council. in favor of It is a good idea that France should coordinate its positions on the UN Security Council with the EU or leave its seat to the EU entirely. This way foreign policy decision-making within the EU can be made more straightforward. 1 1 0
E07172 The Western Balkans should join the EU immediately in favor of I opt without a that the Balkan countries should be EU members so their membership status helps them evolve. We have great examples in Romania and Bulgaria and going back to the eighties to Spain and Portugal. Those countries started to truly develop when they joined the EU. Besides as you stated the Balkan countries have made huge efforts in the last years to approach the EU. 1 0 0

E07189 Esperanto should be the common language for the European Union. in favor of Natural languages were never designed to be used for international communication.

Esperanto has been specifically designed for this purpose as an auxiliary language one that can bring people together. It needs serious consideration. 1 0 0
E07190 The EU should be a permanent member of the UN Security Council in favor of The idea that France should coordinate its positions on the UN Security Council with the EU is good because it does not request any specific UN decision (i.e recognizing the EU as a State). It is enough that an internal EU-France agreement determines that the representative of France (appointed by agreement between France and EU) will now represent the EU (with veto right) and at the same time all other EU Member States will reinforce this representation by delegating their best specialists and put their own representation in vacancy. 1 1 0
E07191 The EU should be a permanent member of the UN Security Council in favor of It should be the common goal of EU diplomacy to change the workings of the UN as it is. The security council is a relict of the emerging post-WW2 order and the influence of the Cold War. 1 1 0

E07196 The EU should strengthen its ties with Ukraine and prepare an EU membership of Ukraine. in favor of If people make a revolution for our system and values we must support them. It is the Ukrainian people who decide their future not Russia. In order to support them we need a European army and a common foreign policy. 1 1 0
E07197 We need a stand-alone European army. in favor of Turkey is encroaching on EU territory Russia is sending its army to the Ukrainian border and what can we do. Nothing because nobody is taking us seriously. Our threats are empty and get ignored and our diplomacy is weak. Its time for the EU to be recognized as a strong force that can and will protect its people and its interests. 1 0 0
E07211 There should be a reform of EU trade and investment policy and a relaunch of global multilateralism in favor of The EU should be able to contribute to a relaunch of global multilateralism through a profound reform based on democracy and peace solidarity and respect for human social and environmental rights. 1 0 0
E07215 The EU should change its internal structure. in favor of Expansion by many dissimilar members and in particular the implementation of the EURO has made the EU unmanageable. The EURO is too strong for the less competitive members and is therefore unsustainable. 1 0 0

E07227 The EU needs a single market for news in favor of We have a deficit in democracy in the EU because of the lack of coverage of European affairs in our media. Its also the reason why people dont know much about the EU and dont understand how it benefits us all. 1 0 0

E07276 The EU will dissolve within 10 years unless reformed in favor of Large bureaucratic organizations such as the EU are the product of the industrial age and unfortunately without significant reforms they will not survive the digital age. The digital age leads to decentralization and cost-efficiency such as a decentralized flow of information (e.g. Internet) and money (e.g. Bitcoin) without the need for centralized control which is very expensive to maintain (i.e. EU). 1 0 1

E08004 The EU should integrate the armed forces of its member states in favor of I am in favor of a possible army but I would like to see it combined with social services and reconstruction. So NGOs and development cooperation must be involved. An army that can fight must also be able to build. We therefore also need a civilian army in Europe. I would also like an army consisting of civilians in uniform in the same way as the German army. Please also take into account the right to refuse orders due to conscientious objection also as in the German army. 1 1 0
E08015 The EU should integrate the armed forces of its member states in favor of A European army is not a controversial idea but a question of what integration of the armed forces of the member states means and what an army is in general. EU action on security and defense must extend to vigilance openness and transparency in economic financial fiscal and social infrastructures. A European or joint - ideally worldwide - army is not a hierarchy but an idea of common values in the sense of human rights and strategic and coordinated action as well as socio-economic prosperity for all without environmental pollution. But ordinances decrees etc. are a kind of silent mail and can falsify the legal goals and values as can reports and statistics. 1 0 0
E08016 The EU should integrate the armed forces of its member states in favor of On the one hand we have Russia killing countless Ukrainians and committing sabotage in Britain and the Czech Republic and on the other hand we have reluctant United States that is switching between isolationist and interventionist policies every 4-8 years. I stand convinced that in order for the European Union to move forward it must begin to introduce measures for the security of both the current member states as well as the future member states that are endangered due to foreign aggression and bring the responsibility of continental safety firmly in our own hands. If Europe is to find the peace it must have the means to create peace by being able to protect itself against hostile foreign influences. 1 1 0
