“If You Bring Prosperity, You Can Have Peace” | ECPP MEP Christian Tereș on Interconnectivity

After the Second World War, European statesmen built a lasting peace by connecting economies. Can the same idea work today?

ECPP MEP Christian Tereș joins Márton Gyöngyösi, ECPP Director for Political Relations, to discuss interconnectivity as a tool for building peace — from the Middle Corridor and the Azerbaijan-Armenia peace process to Europe’s role in a rapidly shifting world order. A wide-ranging conversation on geopolitics, diplomacy, and the enduring lesson of the European project: peace through prosperity.

Recorded during the 15-18 June plenary session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
