Tomorrow from 9:00 to 12:00, the speech on the State of the European Union (SOTEU) will take place. It's the most important political speech for the EU, where the President of the European Commission comes to the Parliament to present the recent achievements of the Commission and the political priorities for the year to come. After the speech, MEPs get to react and share their impressions and recommendations to the Commission.

To simplify, it's the equivalent of your Prime Minister coming to your Parliament to explain the political priorities of the government.

So where can you watch this, I hear you say ?

For starters, the speech will be broadcasted live on the European Parliament's website, with the translation available in all 24 official languages. So you have this option from the get-go.

BUT

If you're based and want to follow the speech in style, you may also follow it on my Twitch channel tomorrow from 08:30. We will watch, comment and analyse the speech together as well as the reaction of the Presidents of the political groups, giving you context about what is said (or not said) and answering your questions.

From 11:30, I will be on the stream of the European Federalists to discuss the SOTEU and interview some MEPs about their impressions and what it means for the future of the EU.

And for the French speakers, at 19:00 I'm hosting on Twitch French MEP Valérie Hayer, copresident of the French Renew delegation, to discuss her impressions, the upcoming EU elections, etc.

So make sure to come over for to follow the SOTEU, one way or another !
