They cannot believe that the citizens of the world, European or not European, cannot have free access to factual journalism. People need to know what is really happening in Europe.
The European Union is a collective democratic political and economical project and all the EU officials and stakeholders must account to each one of the 500 million people who give meaning to the word Europe. It is the right of every European to be provided with top quality insightful journalism about the European affairs, regardless of her education or background.
The European Sting is sending an open invitation to the citizens of the world to find out what is really happening in European Affairs and what are the consequences of decision-making in Europe to the rest of the world. What is more, the Sting welcomes its readers to take part in this constructive and critical dialogue for a better Europe.
