Moving Forward: EU Migration, Cuba Authoritarianism, Cigarette Taxes, EU Cyber Capabilities

This week on Moving Forward, the Young Voices radio show, we hear from contributors Victoria Pazos, Gabriela Blanco, Ian Golan and Antonia-Laura Pup.

It's only been a year since members of the European Union signed the Migration and Asylum pact and it's already falling apart. Victoria Pazos breaks down the reasons for the failure.

Cuba has seen more than its share of human rights abuses over the years. Gabriela Blanco explains how the fruit of authoritarianism in Cuba also poses a special danger for children.

The EU is preparing to hike taxes on cigarettes once more, raising the price by more than 30%. Ian Golan says, I'm a non-smoker, but I still don't want high cigarette taxes.

Europe's cyber-defensive are sitting ducks for hackers and hostile nations. Antonia-Laura Pup says the EU must strengthen its capabilities to protect itself now.
