Christa Tobler commentator in Leuven lecture on Norway’s EEA membership
In the series “Ambassador’s Lecture”, KU Leuven regularly invites distinguished members of the diplomatic community and high-level members of international organisations.
The distinguished members speak on a topic of joint interest and to interact with the academic community on this topic. More information can be found here.
On 14 February 2022, H.E. Ambassador Rolf Einar Fife, Norwegian Ambassador to the EU, spoke on ‘Norway and the EU: a special and enduring relationship. Why Norway said no to EU membership, but yes to the internal market and the EEA’. Christa Tobler was invited to give an academic and legal comment on the lecture. She did so within the framework of “A view from outside the EEA”, discussing not only matters of EEA law but also taking a comparative look at the EU-Swiss relationship and at Brexit.
