      "summary": "On 8 May 2026, the EU and US announced the \"Reciprocal, Fair, and Balanced Trade\" agreement — the Turnberry Accord. Under its terms: the EU applies 0% tariffs to US goods; the US applies 15% to EU goods. The CSRD is rolled back by ~85% in company coverage; the CSDDD by ~70% — both as trade conditions. The headline $750B energy purchase target is legally non-binding and 6,150% above the 2024 US-origin import baseline. The agreement was negotiated without a published Article 218 TFEU Council mandate and implemented in part before co-legislative process completed. The Bureau examines the three adjectives in the official name.",

      "summary": "On 20 May 2026, the European Parliament voted 418 to 207 to demand the Commission trigger the conditionality mechanism against Slovakia — a legal instrument that can suspend EU budget payments where rule-of-law deficiencies risk harming EU financial interests. The resolution cites dismantled anti-corruption bodies, eroded judicial independence, and apparent channelling of EU funds into private estates. The Bureau commends the cross-group margin, the use of a real legal instrument, and the willingness to act against a member state at the cost of bloc solidarity.",
