In one or two paragraphs, describe two ongoing challenges in western Africa that result at least partly from its history and relations with European powers. Do you think the region can overcome these challenges? Why or why not?

The European Union (EU) is a unique partnership in which member states have pooled

sovereignty in certain policy areas and harmonized laws on a wide range of economic and

political issues. The EU is the latest stage in a process of European integration begun after World

War II, initially by six Western European countries, to promote peace, security, and economic

development. The EU currently consists of 28 member states, including most of the formerly

communist countries of Central and Eastern Europe.

The EU is largely viewed as a cornerstone of European stability and prosperity. For much of the

last decade, however, many EU countries have faced considerable economic difficulties. Despite

an improved economic situation in the EU since 2017, economic pressures and societal changes

have contributed to the rise of populist and antiestablishment political parties, at least some of

which harbor anti-EU or “euroskeptic” sentiments. Such trends have complicated the EU’s ability

to deal with multiple internal and external challenges. Among the most prominent challenges are

 the pending departure of the United Kingdom (UK) from the EU (“Brexit”);

 democracy and rule-of-law concerns in Poland, Hungary, and other EU members;

 migration and related societal integration concerns;

 a resurgent Russia; and

 a heightened terrorism threat.
