EurActiv
European UnionEurActiv is a Brussels-based news site on European Union policy and politics, founded in 1999 and published in English among other languages. Its headlines are led by the European Union and the United States, followed by southern Europe, Germany, Ukraine, France and Russia. Politics and economy carry most of the mix, with diplomacy the largest sector. Its stance is neutral toward EU institutions and consistently skeptical toward Donald Trump and the United States.
Political leaning and stance
EurActiv's headlines are consistently skeptical of the United States and Donald Trump, framing tariffs, threats and fines as problems for European allies and quoting unverified Trump claims with distance. The European Union is covered in neutral institutional terms, reporting decisions and delays alike, with only one month of a more critical reading. Hungary and Viktor Orbán are treated critically but without delegitimising language. In one summer month Trump reads as neutral and transactional. This is measured from headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.
