Registration required
Summary
Europe stands at a critical crossroads. While our continent possesses vast natural resources — from strategic minerals and fossil fuels to arable land, forests, fisheries, and renewable potential — an increasingly centralized European Union often prioritizes globalist agendas over the legitimate interests of its Member States. Energy security, economic competitiveness, and national prosperity are too frequently sacrificed to ideological Green Deals, excessive bureaucratic regulations, and one-size-fits-all policies that disregard the geographical, economic, and political realities of individual nations.
Europe’s Natural Treasures: Reclaiming Sovereignty – Member States vs. EU Centralization
The Patriots for Europe Foundation is proud to invite you to a unique conference:
Europe’s Natural Treasures: Reclaiming Sovereignty – Member States vs. EU Centralization
This strategic gathering will bring together parliamentarians, experts, industry leaders, policymakers, and leading thinkers from across Europe to confront these fundamental questions:
• Who truly owns and should control Europe’s natural resources — the Member States or Brussels?
• How can nations safeguard their energy independence and economic sovereignty in the face of EU climate targets and resource redistribution mechanisms?
• What successful national strategies can serve as models for a more balanced European approach?
• How do we reconcile genuine environmental responsibility with industrial competitiveness and energy security?
Over two intensive days, participants will engage in high-level panel discussions, keynote addresses, and in-depth working sessions examining legal frameworks, economic impacts, geopolitical challenges, and concrete policy alternatives.
Our goal is clear: to shift the debate toward a Europe of sovereign nations that cooperates where necessary, but never surrenders control over its most vital strategic assets.
This is not merely an academic exercise — it is a call to action. Europe’s prosperity, security, and freedom depend on returning power to where it rightfully belongs: with the democratic nation-states and their citizens.
