MEU Berlin 2026

Content 2026

Explore the two policy areas that will define the debate at MEU Berlin 2026.

Topic 1

European Union Rapid Operational Force

Hybrid threats are no longer theoretical — they are strategic challenges to European stability.

Topic 2

Digital Identity Security and Resilience

Across Europe, AI is being used to replicate individuals, manipulate reality, and distort markets. From deepfakes to synthetic impersonation, digital identity is becoming a battlefield.

Topic 1

EUROFORCE

European Union Rapid Operational Force

Europe is under pressure.

Cyberattacks targeting energy grids

Sabotage of critical infrastructure

Coordinated disinformation campaigns

Weaponised migration flows

Hybrid threats are no longer theoretical — they are strategic challenges to European stability.

At MEU Berlin, delegates will debate the creation of the European Union Rapid Operational Force (EUROFORCE) — a rapid deployment instrument designed to strengthen the EU’s ability to prevent and respond to man-made crises.

EUROFORCE aims to:

Protect critical infrastructure

Counter hybrid threats

Enhance cross-border operational readiness

Strengthen European coordination and solidarity

Grounded in Article 196 TFEU, the proposal reinforces Member States’ capacities while fully respecting national sovereignty.

Because crises evolve faster than legislation.

Because fragmented responses weaken security.

Because Europe must be ready.

MEU Berlin — reinforcing European resilience.

Topic 2

Digital Identity Under Attack

Digital Identity Security and Resilience

Your face is no longer yours.

Your voice can be cloned.

Your identity can be fabricated.

Across Europe, AI is being used to replicate individuals, manipulate reality, and distort markets. From deepfakes to synthetic impersonation, digital identity is becoming a battlefield.

This is not innovation without limits.

This is a governance gap.

At MEU Berlin, delegates will confront the urgent need for a European framework on Digital Identity Security and Resilience — designed to defend both citizens and companies against malicious data practices.

The debate will focus on:

The rise of deepfakes, synthetic media, and AI-driven impersonation

The unauthorised use of personal and corporate identity data

The growing risks of extortion, reputational attacks, and market manipulation

The need for EU-wide harmonisation to prevent fragmentation and regulatory loopholes

This is not about creating new rights.

It is about protecting the system itself.

Because identity is no longer just personal — it is strategic.

Because data is no longer passive — it is weaponised.

Because without regulation, trust collapses.

Europe cannot afford to react late.

MEU Berlin — governing the digital frontier.
