EU top exporters of chocolate and chocolate bars
2.2 million tonnes of chocolate and chocolate bars were exported by the EU Member States in 2019, 66% of which went to other EU Member States. The top chocolate and chocolate bar exporters were Germany (640 000 tonnes or 30%), followed by Belgium (300 000 tonnes or 14%), the Netherlands (290 000 tonnes or 13%), Poland (230 000 tonnes or 10%) and Italy (180 000 tonnes or 8%). These five EU Member States exported three quarters of the total EU chocolate and chocolate bars. 220 000 tonnes were imported by the EU Member states from non-EU countries, of which 100 000 tonnes came from the United Kingdom and 70 000 tonnes from Switzerland. Source dataset: DS-016890 This news item marks World Chocolate Day (7 July). Note: The European Union (EU) includes 27 EU Member States. The United Kingdom left the European Union on 31 January 2020. Further information is published here. The EU data reflect the political change in the EU composition so the UK is considered as an extra-EU partner country for the EU. However, the UK was still part of the internal market for the period covered, meaning that data on trade with the UK were still based on statistical concepts applicable to trade between the EU Member States.

Registrations open for the first pan-Canadian Model European Union! | EEAS Website
We are excited to announce the launch of the first pan-Canadian Model European Union simulation that will take place in Ottawa from 5 to 7 May 2023. The simulation will allow university students to delve into a specific European Union policy area relevant for transatlantic relations. Participating teams will take on the role of leaders from different EU Member States and use negotiation and diplomatic strategies to get European leaders to agree to one common EU position. Teams will prepare for the two-day simulation through tutorial sessions and by using online preparation materials that will be provided by the organizers. Model EU is a great opportunity for students to learn about the decision-making process of the European Union but also to develop public speaking, negotiation and teamwork skills.
