European Group on Ethics in Science and New Technologies (EGE) handed over its Opinion on Democracy in the Digital Age to Commission Vice-President Dubravka Šuica. - Requested by President von der Leyen, the Opinion will guide the Commission in its efforts to address challenges to democracy and to foster it.
- In their opinion, the EGE warns that democracy can quickly become an empty shell if it is not underpinned by fundamental rights and the values it seeks to protect and promote.
