Elite interviews: is EU a great power? Economically yes because it is a big area, a huge area for economic relationship. Politically I don’t think so, they don’t have a common voice. They created this post of someone who should be the President of the EU, but even then it difficult to judge whether the voice is shared by all the people in the region or not so I think politically not really. The UK and Germany get more attention than the EU itself.. (Civil Society elite, Malaysia) Yes, most leading in the environment sector. In military sphere, it is not the global leader. EU is not the strong hegemon but is the most proficient leading power who respects values and norms. (Political elite, South Korea) “No. It is artificial…is still country-based. There are two major nuclear powers, Britain and France. The economic power is Germany. So these are the dominant powers but EU also includes very poor countries. Some of the very poor countries of Eastern Europe or Southern Europe. As an entity, I don’t think you can look at the EU as a great power. (Political elite, India)

is EU a leader in international politics? Elite interviews: is EU a leader in international politics? Europe, or the EU has always tried to become a leading force, but failed. The USA is still a monopoly in today's world, and Europe has to rely on the United States on many issues, including providing security protection to the EU and so on, such a relationship makes it hard for the EU to become a true leading power. (Business elite, China) EU is not the superpower with unilateral force. (Media elite, South Korea) No, they have sufficient problems trying to coordinate among themselves. (Business elite, Singapore) No, because they are so different, they are so divided. Personally, I cannot see what role they have played. (Civil society elite, Malaysia)
