EU is facing threats today it wasn't facing for decades and there are talks that European countries need their own armies not to rely heavily on US, let alone recent statements of high-ranked US officials on this issue.

March 10th, we are going to argue on:

European Union needs its own strong army

On debate we play a game of a mock-up Parliament of Argulot where each of you becomes a member of a political party. We are a 2-party system here, with 2 partes opposing each other: the affirmative side is defending the statement while negative side is be arguing against it.

The mock-up Parliament of Argulot's sessions take place at Nope bar, Rua Miguel Bombarda 316, Porto

Parties have 30 minutes to prepare and then we start the debate.

Debate Club aims to:

• develop logic, rhetoric and oracy skills

• improve the ability to prove your argument and critical thinking

• practice English

And who knows - maybe you will argue in a real Parliament one day!

We would encourage all speakers starting from Upper-intermediate (B2) level to join! Whether you are a Churchill or you have never argued in your life – we are happy to have all of you and we’ll do our best to make sure you feel neither bored nor cognitively overwhelmed!

The debate is conducted by Daria Gakova – a member of debate team at Moscow State University in the past and a sales lead and negotiator in the present.

Come debate with us!
