  • La Unió Parlamentària Europea (UPE/EPU) fou una entitat privada fundada per Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi, que també n'era el secretari general. Celebrà el seu congrés preliminar els dies 4 i 5 de juliol del 1947 a Gstaad (Suïssa), seguit pel seu primer congrés complet entre el 8 i el 12 de setembre del mateix any. L'objectiu de Kalergi era redactar una constitució europea. La PEU demanà a uns 4.000 diputats de 13 països europeus que es manifestessin a favor o en contra d'una federació europea en el marc de les Nacions Unides. El projecte fou criticar per Denis de Rougemont i , gendre de Winston Churchill, fundador del Moviment Europeu, que defensaven un model basat en la cooperació intergovernamental que no comportés cap pèrdua de sobirania nacional. La PEU tingué un paper important en el Congrés de La Haia (7–10 de maig del 1948). El segon congrés de la PEU tingué lloc entre l'1 i el 5 de setembre del 1948 a la ciutat suïssa d'Interlaken. El 20 de setembre del 1949, la PEU celebrà el seu tercer congrés a Venècia, on s'aprovà una resolució a favor d'una major integració política europea i una extensió de les competències de l'Assemblea Consultiva del Consell d'Europa, que tot just s'acabava de fundar. Aquell mateix any, el diputat britànic en fou elegit president. La creació del Consell d'Europa reduí la influència de la PEU en oferir als parlaments d'Europa el seu propi fòrum intergovernamental a Estrasburg. El 18 de maig del 1950, Kalergi fou el primer guardonat amb el Premi Internacional Carlemany de la ciutat d'Aquisgrà. Els dies 19 i 20 de juny del mateix any, la PEU organitzà una Conferència de Parlamentaris Alemanys i Francesos a la ciutat suïssa de Rheinfelden. Poc després, la PEU es fusionà amb el Moviment Europeu. Kalergi fou elegit president honorífic del Moviment Europeu el 1952. (ca)
  • The European Parliamentary Union (EPU) was a private organization set up by Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi, who was also its Secretary General.It held its preliminary conference on 4–5 July 1947 at Gstaad, Switzerland, and followed it with its first full conference from 8 to 12 September. Kalergi’s aim was to draft a European Constitution. The EPU asked some 4000 members of Parliament of 13 European countries to decide for or against a European Federation in the framework of the United Nations. The project was criticized by Denis de Rougemont and Duncan Sandys, son-in-law of Winston Churchill, founder of the European Movement, who advocated a model based on an intergovernmental co-operation without any loss of national sovereignty.The EPU played a prominent role in the Congress of the Hague, 7–10 May 1948. The second EPU Congress was held from 1 to 5 September 1948 in Interlaken, Switzerland.On 20 September 1949, the EPU met for the third time in Venice and voted a resolution in favour of greater European political integration and an extension of the powers of the Consultative Assembly of the Council of Europe, which had just been established. In 1949, the British MP Kim Mackay became chair of the EPU.The creation of the Council of Europe resulted in a loss of influence for the EPU, since European parliaments now had their own intergovernmental forum in Strasbourg. On 18 May 1950, Kalergi was the first person to be awarded the International Charlemagne Prize of the City of Aachen. In 19.-20 June 1950, Rheinfelden, Switzerland, the EPU organised a Conference of German and French Parliamentarians. Shortly afterwards, the EPU was merged with the European Movement. Kalergi was elected honorary president of the European Movement in 1952. (en)
