The first multilingual website on EU affairs – PRESSEUROP.EU

On the 26th of May the European Commission and a consortium led by Courrier International launched PRESSEUROP.EU - the first multilingual website containing press articles on EU affairs.

PRESSEUROP offers, now in 10 languages (German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian and Czech, up to 23), a multilingual selection of articles published on the same day or the day before. These articles are complemented with analyses, comments and illustrations.

PRESSEUROP presents:

1. articles from the European and international press (newspapers, magazines and online), selected according to pertinence and liability criteria, and covering various domains of EU news: politics, economy, society, world, environment, sciences, culture, ideas etc.;
2. press reviews, summaries and news syntheses;
3. illustrations (graphic, pictures, videos, cartoons etc.);
4. a daily newsletter on the most recent news;
5. press archives

The website will be fully interactive, with thematic forums, online surveys and the possibility for visitors to comment on published articles. PRESSEUROP will monitor circa 250 titles everyday, including Le Monde, Le Figaro, Financial Times, The Economist, Washington Post, Corriere della Sera, FAZ, etc.

The PRESSEUROP consortium is therefore bound to expand and include new members. Partnerships are already foreseen, notably with the European Radio Network – EuRaNet – and the future EU TV Net.
