Is Europe at a tipping point? After the Paris terrorist attacks, there are increasing doubts that Europe’s passport-free open borders can survive in their current form. European solidarity is being put to the test, as countries struggle to agree on common solutions, both to the migrant crisis and to the terrorism threat. Is there a price to pay if Europe decides to tighten its borders? The free movement of people, trade and capital within Europe is a basic principle of the EU. At a time when Europe and its most fundamental values are facing renewed threats from outside – a growling Russian bear and a fanatical so-called Islamic State, to name but two - can the dream of a united Europe survive?

The debate will be moderated by the 91Èȱ¬â€™s chief international correspondent Lyse Doucet taking comments and questions from social media and front row VIP guests.
