European unification

Christoforos Fokaidis, President of the youth organisation of the Cypriot Christian Democratic party Democratic Rally (DISI), writes in the daily Politis about the European unification process: "Contrary to what people claim, the Treaty of Lisbon does indeed strive to make the Union more democratic and responsible and increase the participation of its citizens. Through a series of measures, such as strengthening the role of the European Parliament, but also that of the national parliaments, ... a small but important step is being made towards the democratic legitimation of the Union. It is difficult to predict ... where this European experiment will end. But what is certain is that so far it has managed to meet global challenges much more effectively than the nation state and also to harness the advance of the global economy with democratic rules. This is why the process of European unification is not just an extension of globalisation, as many claim, but rather an answer to globalisation and to the weakness of the nation state - in particular the smaller ones."
