Members of the European Parliament and lawmakers from Latin America will meet next week in Santa Cruz de Tenerife to review their bilateral relationship and discuss shared challenges amid a backdrop of increasing global instability, the European Parliament said in a brief press notice.
What Parliament is doing
The European Parliament announced a parliamentary dialogue between EU and Latin American parliamentarians scheduled to take place in Santa Cruz de Tenerife next week. According to the statement, participants will assess the state of EU–Latin America relations and consider future challenges. The announcement did not provide details on the programme, participating delegations, or speakers.
Why it matters
The event brings together legislators from two regions that maintain longstanding political, economic and cultural ties. The Parliament framed the meeting as taking place “in a context of growing instability,” indicating that security, geopolitical shifts or other destabilising trends are part of the agenda. Beyond the general aim of assessing bilateral relations, the press notice did not specify which policy areas—such as trade, migration, climate, or security—will be prioritised.
What happens next
The press release sets the meeting date as next week in Santa Cruz de Tenerife but does not outline subsequent procedural steps, expected outcomes, or any follow-up measures. Further information on conclusions, resolutions, or future meetings will depend on statements or documents published by the Parliament after the dialogue concludes.
