Well, Sarkozy’s in<\/a>, John Reid’s out<\/a>, and this is a day late. My bad. Let’s try it country by country this time, for the sake of clarity…<\/p>\n

Armenia<\/strong><\/p>\n

You’d think they had enough to worry about with Turkey, but now it looks like Britain’s playing a somewhat suspect role in Armenian politics<\/a> (and part 2<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Estonia<\/strong><\/p>\n

That statute crisis explained<\/a> – and a first-hand account<\/a> of the rioting (with a translation here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

France<\/strong><\/p>\n

DJ Nozem has probably the best advice for how to approach the aftermath of Sarkozy’s victory<\/a> – though the excellent France Decides is typically canny while looking at the possible implications for Sarkozy<\/a> and Royal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Germany<\/strong><\/p>\n

Promising new Euroblog A European View looks at Germany’s difficulty in coming to terms with her Nazi past<\/a>, while Registan has a gnader at the current conflict between Germany and the rest of the EU over how to act towards Uzbekistan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Greece<\/strong><\/p>\n

What with the riots in Estonia (and Paris last night, following Sarkozy’s victory) and protests in Turkey, it looks like most people missed the riots in Greece<\/a>…<\/p>\n

Poland<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fistful calls for blogging solidarity<\/a> thanks to the latest nonsense from the increasingly nutty Polish government.<\/p>\n

Romania<\/strong><\/p>\n

The excellent Soj is back at last, with a handy guide to Romanian etiquette<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Russia<\/strong><\/p>\n

Isn’t it about time the EU acted over the bully to the east?<\/a><\/p>\n

Serbia<\/strong><\/p>\n

Still without a government<\/a>, three months after the elections… But is it the fault of Kosovo<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Turkey<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jon Worth has a good stab at summing up the difficulties the EU is facing over the current Turkish constitutional crisis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The UK<\/strong><\/p>\n

England Expects on some dodgy incidents in the recent UK-wide elections<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The EU<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some sensible advice to Eurosceptics<\/a> from No Guiding Light. Aimed at Finnish ones, but can easily be applied more generally. Meanwhile, over at Eurozone Watch, a look at the possible implications of the current record strength of the Euro<\/a>, while Aapo looks at the rather odd and confusing concept of “Europeanness<\/a>“, Jan attacks Barroso’s ineffectiveness<\/a>, and Nanne has a great overview of the sheer weirdness of the EU’s legal system<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Next roundup in a fortnight, most likely. Help me out here, people – see something decent? Bung me a heads-up to EUroundup [at] gmail [dot] com<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
