Summary/Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic strongly affected not only European countries as individual subjects of international law, but the European Union as a whole, highlighting both some of its strengths and some of its weaknesses, especially in matters concerning the competences bestowed upon it by its Member States. While the EU was able to offer financial support, particularly to States that were heavily impacted by the pandemic, its limitations in terms of developing a health policy were also made obvious. In this context, an analysis of the measures taken by the EU with regards to this crisis can suggest potential changes to the EU Treaties, that would allow the organisation to react more swiftly and consistently to such a challenge.
