“” “” Britain had no leading role in the EU. Nor does France; they have always acted as Germany’s lapdog. Don’t forget that there was a reason why Berlin wanted the European Central Bank on German soil. “” “”

It is only natural and they are welcome. Unlike some of the fearmongers on thread I don’t see any prerequisites for future war behind it.

Previous European wars were among other reasons for the recognition of German leadership which was denied by the rest.

Now their leadership is obvious and accepted and actually exercised so they don’t need to go to war to be there. Also they don’t have a military to speak of and I am yet to see a will to change it.

I think only France and Ukraine now have somehow serious war machines in Europe and both are still deficient. Poland, some other East European countries might be somehow above the rest Euro armies which are girl scout clubs but they are too small to put any fight anyway.

That’s almost opus material. Hope you at least learn about the real world from FR before you go.

It’s the geography. Poland is indefensible. One big plain. Germany has to be thwarted.
