Yooo dude out here being sponsored by Arte. That's awesome!
Yeah its really cool to have them as a sponsor for this :)
@@IntoEuropethat means that I payed you, arte is payed by German and French tv, which is payed by taxpayer money.
As a German I say my tax is invest good here
@@Flattithefish pay GEZ or you get imprisoned
@@CyberKomita GEZ ist voll Chill 😎.
Ohne GEZ hätten wir so ne scheiß wie die Amis mit ihren CNN und Fox News
Die sind doch VIEL mehr von irgendwelchen dummen Ideologien geleitet.
Außerdem hab ich kein Bock auf Werbung.
Arte sponsorship, someone's moving up in the world ^^
The pacing felt too fast, particularly because the reasoning for how it works builds up from beginning to end. It takes a second to let the understanding sink in before moving, and not having it means the next part doesn't make full sense. E.g. the nuances of the two votes and what kind of power-affinity (national interest, popular interest, etc) those bodies tend to have. And if you read this far then I'll say that I am a frequent watcher I think the videos are great.
Works about the same as regular elections here:
1. There's one day for election.
2. All of the elections are in Sunday.
3. You have to brings your ID.
4. If you don't live in a place where you go to vote(ie. you don't live in the area tied to a specific voting spot, you have to notify 3-4 days before that you will vote elsewhere).
Nice to see arté as a sponsor here
Let us DIRECTLY VOTE for the EU commission president!
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
if you vote a political party that is a part of either S&D political group or Renew Europe political group - you support future DIRECT VOTE of EU Commission President.
no
No, since European politics depends on coalition buildings.
The issue with that, is that will totally destroy member states sovereignty.
Today, EU commission is responsible toward member states governments.
If EU commission become responsible toward EU citizen instead, then EU governments basically lost their executive power and EU would officially be a federal state.
I am not necessarily against it, but people need to understand that giving a more direct democracy to EU means giving away their country sovereignty.
This would make the EU more democratic, but it would reduce sovereignty of countries. Both bigs criticisms of the EU. Its either one or the other
Please make more videos like these. I would love to know how EU operates
Corruptly. Saved him some time.
I am an American living in Europe, not sure if this cleared things up or made me more confused haha. Can't vote anyways for 4 more years so guess it doesn't entirely matter anyways
VOTE YOU FOOLS! VOTE!
Hey guys. Please go out and VOTE! The EU parliament is highly important and the far-right extremists are gaining ground. We should stand our ground against them!
We are not FAR RIGHT EXTREMISTS we are normal everyday citizens WHO ARE SICK TO THE BACK TEETH OF OUR COUNTRY BEING TAKEN OVER BY FOREIGNERS.
@@Phil-bc2sdI understand that many people fear to lose their wealth in these troubled times and are angry. However, while immigration is a challenging topic that Europe has to face it is certainly not the root of all the complex problems we face. The far-right parties use it as an easy scapegoat. Blaming everything on immigration is an easy message to spread with which they are pretty successful. However, their political programs lack true solutions to better the peoples lifes. On the contrary: By promoting tax plans that favor the rich over the poor and the middle class and by cutting social spending they weaken the economical and social status of the very people that vote for them, the workers. Additionally, they spread misinformation and division for a simple reason: When people feel unsafe and/or are enraged, they tend to vote for extremist parties.
With this being said, I'd like to ask you kindly to reconsider your position.
So no one voted for Ursula von der Leyen but she somehow still got the job?
The European Council nominated her, and the the Parliament confirmed her. So she was elected indirectly.
Cheers,
Hugo
Pardon any misunderstandings here from a confused American: isn't that how it usually works in parliamentary democracies? No one votes directly for the Chancellor/Prime Minister (except in their own constituency).
(Of course, that's how it *technically* works here in the Electoral College, but that is definitely not what you see on the ballot. I'm not saying our system is any better, but this doesn't seem *that* different from how indirect elections typically work, at least to me).
@jeffbenton6183
Lol exactly, people complaining that the commission isn't elected by them while their government wasn't either.
@@IntoEurope
It went against the Spitzenkandidat-system which all the parties didn't even follow up on. Who knows who we are getting next time? The EU system is very unlikeable
@@jeffbenton6183 The thing is that Ursula von der Leyen wasn't even on the ballot. Normally in parliamentary democracies even though you don't vote for your prime minister directly, parties campaing beforehand with a candidate who will be elected prime minister if they win a majority and who also runs as the lead candidate for one of main consituencies (in Spain it is traditionally for the capital of Madrid). This was not the case for von der Leyen. She was one of the ministers of the german goverment but got nominated by European Council (countries' presidents and prime miniesters) because the candidate that was on the ballot (Manfred Weber) lacked government experience.
I see arte, I like.
This EU election might be a turning point for all of Europe!
Haven't heard that one before
We need the "right" direction (if you know what I mean). 😉
@oceanwave4502 I sadly think I understand what you mean. You are one of the anti immigrant idiots are you not?
@@oceanwave4502 shit joke lmao
@proodjjuice-hz5sn bro😭 i'm not arguing with someone under the voting age LMAO
Arte(de) sponsored your video? That's a huge flex!
At 1:04 you missed Bulgaria, but have Denmark twice. ;)
Already voted!
It's nice that Denmark gets double the seats.
For the protection and liberties of 450,000,000 Europeans, war economy now! Military re-industrialisation, reduce unemployment, reduce interest rates, increased salaries, peace.
Si vis pacem, para bellum!
I feel more confused after watching the video. What exactly happens to the second vote, the national one? What is that for?
Sameeee! That step of individual countries selecting their commissioners was not clear. I understood the parliament elections, their groupings, and the election of the commission president, but not the rest of the individual commissioners, or how people are chosen for the council of the European Union.
The European council are the head of member states governments.
When a new Prime Minister or President is elected in a national election, he automatically become an European Councilor.
The European council then nominate the European Commissionioners.
It usually done as a careful negotiation betwen Councillors, so every countries are represented in the Commissionion.
It’s all a hot mess to take power away from ppl and focus it on non elected few.
The national vote just refers to your national elections which occur on different years depending on the country. These elections vary by country but generally it is the election in which a new national goverment is formed (e.g. parliamentary elections in spain, presidential elections in France). The things is that the European Comission which is kind of like the EU goverment, has one member from each country of the EU. So each country's government proposes a name to be part of the comission, which will generally be from the same political party as the party in government in that country.
This is a complicated negotiation because the President of the European Comission has to agree to these people because they will form his "team", then the European Council (the coutries' presidents or prime ministers) have to agree, and lastly it is all approved by the parliament which normally makes all the commissioners explain in parliament why they are the right person for the job.
Note that the country of the president of the comission doesn't get to nominate someone else, nor does the country of the high representative (akin to a foreign affairs minister for the EU). These posts are negotiated with both countries and political parties in mind.
Me too...I started understanding then I got lost when he reached EU commission and parliament,
First of all, thank you for making this video carefully. Secondly, I feel that I can understand the first part. After 3:13 I can't understand the difference between the European Council and the European Commission. I hope the video can explain it in more detail.btw EU is a complicated system...
Isn’t the parliament just a rubber stamp, kind of like the House of Lords in the UK
No? Parliament is equal to the house of the commons in the UK. The council is then similar to the senate in the US.
nope, it actually has powers and responsibilities over a massive budget
Who’s here after MACRON dissolved the French parliament
1:51 Just looking for some design advice here. Which program and font were used to make this segment here? Does anyone know?
pretty cool that denmark got 2x the vote at 1:03
0:03 - "It's the 9th of June. [...] You know you're about to cast a vote in the European elections".
My voting card says the 6th of June.
It’s between the 6-9 of June in different countries across the EU. Yours must be on the 6th then. Consider some countries may also have early voting
vvd en d66 are currently still in governement with each other, while the vvd is forming a new one. A bit more googling would have made this video better
When we could possibly know if roberta metsola will remain as the president of the European Parliament or if we're getting the nee one?
I voted for the political left.. Europa strong 💪
Ursula Von Der Leyen has been doing a very good job.
She communicates very well and tries to find a middle ground. Great lady!
It will be much safer of course because conflicts come of fear and do not wake the bear that sleeps.
A slower pace would be appreciated
agreed
Its really similar to how Indian Election works
This was so confusing?
je jure que t'es français pour prononcer ARTE comme ça :)
Mais ducoup question, PK tu parle en anglais sur ta chaîne? C'est par ce que tu veux que tout les Européen puisse comprendre, ou pour une autre raison ?
How do you know which parties from your country are in which group in EU parliament?
Google it
wikiopedia is the easiest site
Almost nothing......just pay more for the criminals in Brussel
Props for the sponsorship
Qatargate..!!!!!!!
If BJP modi was contesting he would win all seat... Bride all of the them

oh yeah have to vote lol
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
OMG, #arteultras
There are no waitinglines at an eu election here 😅 nobody cares about the eu. Its just a leader thing but when they need people for a eu army etc, no one will go 😂 why give your life for an stranger who causes trouble in your country 😅
it don't work
To my lovely Europeans, vote for far right.
Merci.
Danke.
Thank you.
Grazie.
Gracias.
Nah, I voted for BSW… She’s the German equivalent to Mette Fredriksen.
Short answer: no. Long answer: not at all. It's all done behind close doors, the very definition of democracy lol.
Did you watched the video ?
@@mrsupremegascon *did you watch. First learn proper English, then come to comment towards me.
@@MMerlyn91 lol, that's what I thought
I love how you confirm that anti-European are pricks, and then cry about nobody not voting for your parties.
man, at least watch the video first.
We should just go back to having the single market and skipping the whole federalisation.
I know this isnt as simple as that but i would like to keep my country as a country, not just one state that isnt even independent anymore.
What happend to diversity?
Why cant we do things differently?
Work together on the things that makes sense, like targeting organised crime rings operating in several countries.
Reminds me a bit of a sketch in Yes, Prime Minister:
"This is a British democracy Bernard! British democracy recognizes that you need a system to protect the important things of life, and keep them out of the hands of barbarians."
Ironic, looking at the Brexit xD
How about democracy - we vote on issues
Vote for parties who wont vote for Ursula
The far left ?
Voted ECR
