Consecutive presidencies are discouraged and should be avoided.Section II. Powers and DutiesI. The powers of the European Assembly do not overpass those of the rest of European institutions. It shall only provide counsel on the situation of the European Union at the time.II. The duty of the European Assembly is to give a position in the European Union to every Member State government.III. In case of a total collapse of the institutions of the European Union (i.e. cease of exercising of duties, complete shutdown due to human/natural catastrophes...), the European Assembly shall gather and takeover control of the European Union until the situation is resolved.~~
Virtually every Councillor here has voiced opposition to the existence of the European Assembly, a redundant institution which has, in its whole existence, accomplished nothing and whcih was passed by a 2-0 vote, as did many other pieces of unpopular and now-repealed legislation.
Let us put a merciful end to it now.
