  • La montée des tensions et la reprise du conflit en Iran ajoutent une nouvelle volatilité à un environnement économique mondial déjà fragile. Dans un contexte de fragmentation géopolitique, d'incertitude sur les marchés de l'énergie et de ralentissement de la croissance, il est devenu de plus en plus urgent de comprendre les implications macroéconomiques de ce conflit pour l'Europe. La section spécialisée "Union économique et monétaire, cohésion économique et sociale" (ECO) du CESE organisera un débat public afin d'examiner les conséquences macroéconomiques plus larges du conflit en Iran pour l'économie européenne.
