FT launches “Europe Express” daily newsletter

Valentina Pop

The Financial Times has launched “Europe Express,” a daily newsletter with insight on European affairs.

“Europe Express” is written by the FT’s European correspondent network and edited by Valentina Pop, who just joined in this new role.

“Europe’s influence on global affairs and its leadership role on issues like climate, technology and the future of the digital economy mean it is of crucial interest to the FT’s audience,” said Roula Khalaf, editor in chief of the Financial Times, in a statement. “This new offering will give our readers the daily insight they need on the key developments across the continent.”

Pop joined the FT from the Wall Street Journal where she was a Brussels correspondent covering regulation and politics. She has been writing about European affairs for more than 10 years.

Pop added, “Building on the FT’s popular Brussels Briefing, Europe Express is broadening in scope to cover more national stories with a European resonance. Depending on what is driving the agenda that day, it can also look beyond the EU and provide analysis on its immediate neighborhood including the UK, Russia, Ukraine and Turkey.”
