The collection of signatures continues until January 2027. The political goal should now be to make this the most successful ECI ever (I imagine this, since I am not involved in its organization). I think 3-4 million signatures is not unrealistic. As part of this goal, minimum thresholds should be achieved in more member states (minimum is 7, currently 10). 2/3

The ECI is organized by the Left Alliance group of the European Parliament. The main organizer is listed as Swedish MEP Malin Björk: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malin_Bj%C3%B6rk This means that the success of the ECI gives Björk and her allies a strong argument to demand the involvement of the Parliament. I expect them to demand that the suspension of the association agreement be discussed in plenary. In other words, your signature to the ECI has a built-in institutional backing. That's how it should be! 3/4
