The special focus is on Migration, which was the main topic of the European summit in June. Numerous papers have been published covering, for example, control of the EU's external borders, reform of the Common European Asylum System and the question of regional disembarkation centres.

Other topics that are covered in this issue include, among others, Brexit negotiations, the reform of the EMU, NATO and defence policy, Baltic countries, trade, Russia and much more.

The TTR59 can be downloaded from our blog.

The next Think Tank Review will be out in October 2018, with papers published in September 2018.
