The heavy push for the EU military (rejected twice in the past) in response to the Brexit may be one clue.

“Why do I think an EU army is more about preventing more Brexits than it is about a common defense?”

And suppressing the actual Europeans. Old Roman trick. Legions raised in one province to dominate another, while a foreign raised legion suppressed the home they came from. The Soviets did the same, in their haphazard, sloppy way.
