The debate will focus on the concerns of students and young people across Europe, many of whom will be voting for the first time.

• Bas Eickhout for the European Green Party

• Frans Timmermans for the Party of European Socialists

• Violeta Tomić for the Party of the European Left

• Guy Verhofstadt for the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe • Jan Zahradil for the Alliance of Conservatives and Reformists in Europe

The moderators for the debate are: Ryan Heath, political editor at POLITICO Rianne Letschert, rector at Maastricht University

The Maastricht Debate 2019 is being jointly organized by three partners from Maastricht: Working on Europe – Maastricht University, the City of Maastricht and the Province of Limburg – as well as the European Youth Forum and the European Journalism Centre. On this occasion, the organizers have invited POLITICO, the leading European publication for EU influencers, to ensure an extensive reach to the widest possible audience.
