This paper is devoted to the proof of the convergence of the Vlasov-Poisson
system to the incompressible Euler equations in the so-called quasi-neutra
l regime for cold electrons. The convergence is global in time and for gene
ral initial data as long as a strong solution for the Euler system is known
to exist. This investigation extends the results of Y. Brenier [1] where t
he case of "well-prepared" initial data was handled.
