Abstract
Empirical analysis for this fifth hypothesis is based on the survey among other sources. The survey respondents were asked to what extent they agree with this statement: ‘A common EU position strengthens the EU’s influence in the G7, G8 or G20’. First of all, it should be noted that presenting a common position in the Gx does not necessarily imply prior internal EU coordination among all member states. A common position may for example, also follow from coordination between the EU4 countries in the margin of Gx meetings. So we cannot simply conclude that there is also a broad support for internal EU coordination. To make any meaningful conclusions, these results have to be complemented by interviews.
