Tusk all but rules out pan-EU candidates in 2019 elections
By EUobserver
EU leaders will discuss the idea of transnational electoral lists, allowing candidates for the European Parliament to run in multiple countries this Friday - however, an EU source told EUobserver it was unlikely to be set up by the 2019 elections. "This project is not without merit and is certainly worth discussing in view of the 2024 elections," said European Council president Donald Tusk in a letter to leaders.
