President
of the Newropeans movement
– Coverage perspective : 50 million European voters
The
result of Newropeans Networks' transformation into a
political movement when, in May 2005, popular referenda
on the EU Constitution failed, Newropeans is the first
trans-Eurpean political movement engaged in the democratisation
of the European Union. In 2009, Newropeans will stand
for elections to the European Parliament in 2009 in
all EU countries. Newropeans is the most concrete result
to this day of Franck Biancheri's constant efforts since
1985 in favour of the democratisation of Europe.

President
of the trans-European party Initiative for a European
Democracy (IED) – 1989
– 400,000 votes in 1989 Three
years after having created AEGEE, and during the European
elections of 1989, Franck Biancheri and a group of his
European Team decide to launch IED, an experiment without
precedent consisting of presenting a common party and
programme in 3 different countries, all members of the
UE. This “mixing” experiment ended up drawing
400,000 votes in the three different countries. To this
day, the experiment remains a unique endeavour… |
