B2's life

summer rhythm

© NGV/B2

(B2) The entire Brussels2 team is going into "summer break" mode after a busy year. The blog and our site now have more than 10.000 articles, including nearly 4000 for the professional edition alone (B2 Pro) nearly 4000 articles. And our educational edition (QUezako) nearly 200 fact sheets.

We will continue to follow the news during the month of August. But at a less sustained pace. What is happening in the Middle East: Syria, Iran, Yemen, and the dissensions in the Gulf countries and, above all, Libya and the migration crisis in the central Mediterranean.

This will be an opportunity for us, above all, to complete and update our "Quezako", the electronic encyclopedia on the CSDP and the CFSP (a B2 exclusive) and our files.

Happy holidays for those who take it, good on-call duty for the others
