During its 606th plenary session, held on Wednesday 17 June 2026, the European Economic and Social Committee focused on two key debates: the transition towards a circular and climate-neutral economy, with European Commission Executive Vice-President Teresa Ribera, and resilience in Europe’s Eastern border regions, with Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, Neringa Rinkevičiūtė-Laurinaitienė and Hugo Sobral. The debates were linked to the adoption of EESC opinions on the Circular Economy Act and on the strategy to support the EU’s eastern border regions. #EESC #Plenary #CircularEconomy #JustTransition #EasternBorderRegions #Resilience #CivilSociety
