One of the key policy issues that interested the population in Europe before the pandemic was migration. Particularly, in Belgium, the government fell in 2019 because a majority in the parliament without the country's largest party at the time voted to ratify the UN-Migration pact (Marrakesh pact). I believe that we, as Europeans, cannot be proud of our economic and social successes when we are not able to treat every human being with the respect he or she deserves. It has a certain shame and hypocrisy to it.
With increasing migrant flows due to instabilities in Central and Northern Africa, countries in the south of Europe and Turkey are confronted with large numbers of people looking for a brighter future. These people are often not treated in accordance with the European values and with the respect that they deserve. And, additionally, the issue is causing questionable foreign policy outcomes regarding Turkey.
As a people, we need a change of mind and connotation to refugees, and arguably economic migrants. More awareness about people's backgrounds and transparency about how we treat the people in need at our borders could help in that regard.
The solution I think lies not only in letting everyone enter Europe unconditionally, but also provide resources and support communities in the global South to develop themselves, and become more resilient to negative events.

Sąmoningi ir saugūs

In the world of the future, people's kindness and cooperation are strengthened. Governments have taken many firm and undeniable decisions about future well-being, not all of which are for the benefit of the people (e.g. tax rises), but society is conscious and, once it is understood, rejoices at , that these decisions make life good, albeit financially more difficult. We are safe!

Spokoj i radość do końca życia

I hope that in 2040 I will still live, together with my family, in health, that then it will be easier, quieter, calmer.I would like to have peace in the world, so that the world will be more natural, as truly as it once was, and not burdened with some sick laws and absurdities.I would like there to be as few sick people as possible, so that all the diseases of the world will be cures , access to a doctor will be a pleasure and all the necessary tests a man would have done immediately and free of charge.I would like people to stop robbing the state, because then there would be a chance to somehow improve this world.Let all absurd laws that supposedly care about the environment disappear.Let the country be ruled by wise and good people.

Inflation

I would want that the goods in stores would be cheaper and that the inflation stops or salaries espacialy in slovenia should get bigger because the goods are as expensive as in northern countries where salaries are a lot bigger and better. And rent should be cheaper because in Ljubljana it exedes the minimal pay for a one room apartment and buying a apratment is extreme too, one room sells for 80000€. And the medicine should be faster too, the queues are at least one year long for a urgent operation.

Geluk zit in een grote hoek

When I walk down my greened street, I find that after the turbulent years in which part of the former EU has separated, it has finally brought peace and clarity. The stricter legislation in force in the slimmed-down EEC is bearing fruit in many areas. Safety and trust are slowly returning. Utopias about integration have been thrown overboard and Western core values seem to be returning. External borders are tightly guarded and the EEC has an equal policy of quality of life rather than quantity. Fortunately, we have resisted the rise of billionaires and oligarchs in the 1930s and find ourselves in a prosperous, pragmatic and happy continent where we have gone through the eye of the needle.
