Examples of news articles:
News articles should report facts and other peoples' opinions, but not the author's own opinions.
Analyses should take an in-depth look at an issue or situation. An analysis should provide the author's opinion on the topic in question, as long as that opinion is backed up by evidence.
Analyses can be between 1,000 and 10,000 words in length. Please bear in mind that longer your contribution, the longer it will take us to consider it for publication.
We frequently publish official documentation, both from the EU institutions and national governments.
