GIVE THE EU A VOICE IN THE UKRAINE CONFLICT

30 January 2022
Yes, Ukraine is an EU problem. Though the EU is sidelined and ignored. How could this be changed? Give them an army, give them a voice.
The Germans will never go to the front on any intl political issues. Truth be told, they are so ashamed of what they did, they daren't look themselves in the mirror, let alone look at us.
So you'll get nothing off them.
What about the French? They are proud of their imperial past (like the British aren't anymore) and are about to re-elect their very own little modern day Napoleon.
But the French, though they have a diversity of arms, are terribly underequipped. They have supplies for a few days, then they run to the Americans, or simply run away: look at Mali.
So one fateful answer would be for Macron to double his defence budget, with money from Germany, and build a real superpower army. Entirely under French control (but see the Elysee accord).
The beauty of this is that in the coming decade or two, it could be Europe that takes over, the Euro that becomes the world's reserve currency.
