State of the Union

The State of the Union is an annual address delivered by the President of the European Commission to the European Parliament. It serves as a key political moment to review the previous year's achievements and outline the Commission's legislative priorities and strategic goals for the coming year.

This procedure affects the entire European Union by setting the political agenda. It informs citizens, member states, and businesses about the EU's planned direction on critical issues such as the economy, climate, and security.
