Ask questions during the event through using #unlock.
As COVID-19 numbers stabilize in some European countries there is talk of lifting the lockdown. Meanwhile European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is calling for a "coordinated exit from the confinement measures."
Europe is an interconnected continent. What are the risks of Member States acting on their own? Will the EU be able to bring states together for a coordinated exit strategy?
In this live recording of the latest episode of The Sound of Economics we will discuss these questions.
