The EU is better positioned than any other region in the world to build a seamless energy, transport and communication grid that will create a "lateral", continental market for one billion people: this will be next stage of European integration, said Jeremy Rifkin in an exclusive interview with EurActiv.

After much political posturing, the European Council agreed to tighten the Stability and Growth Pact, promising stiffer sanctions to countries that fail to abide by the rules.
