The head of the European Commission believes that the time has come to create a single EU army

54
Once again, the Eurocrats started talking about the need to create a single army of the European Union. This time the conversation on this topic was started by the head of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker. According to Juncker, he is a consistent supporter of the creation of a single European army, but, according to him, this position was previously criticized in European states. Now Juncker is sure that the issue of creating an army of the European Union must be substantively discussed at the highest level.

The head of the European Commission believes that the time has come to create a single EU army


It should be noted that German Chancellor Angela Merkel is also in favor of creating a single European army. According to her, the army will become a supranational union and can be formed from the composition of the military personnel of the armies of countries belonging to the EU, on a pro-rata basis. At the same time, it is not entirely clear how interaction will be carried out with another supranational military association, NATO, in which the majority of EU countries are members.

Among the opponents of such an idea is the UK, as well as the so-called Young Europeans. Thus, the Lithuanian parliament has already begun a discussion on whether the “elder brothers in NATO and the EU” will not press Vilnius with the aim of sending military troops from Lithuania, for example, to participate in a land operation in Syria.

        Junker has this idea fixed. He has already been explained several times, the US is against. It may be better for us. The US will have less impact. The EU will be more independent in its decisions, they can simply send the USA with their wars, let them fight themselves. It will be easier for us to engage in dialogue with more independent states.

          Wow, an attempt to indicate military independence from the United States ... Uncle Sam’s iron arm is too heavy ... In fact, that is, politically, Junker wants to get rid of NATO and American occupation. What is NATO for? It serves only as a factor of destabilization of Europe, it does not protect against any threats ...

      Well, really, this European army will look strange .. I don't think that ordinary Germans will serve in Poland in a mixed unit under the command of a Spaniard (the degree of mixing of different peoples is one hundred percent hazing), and if everything is "localized", the Germans are in Germany, the French are in France and the command in Brussels ... then with a certain mess ... how will they interact with each other? something is difficult for me)))

        And create (or choose from the existing ones) a single European language. I am very interested in how the interaction of German, Spanish, French and other "national segments" in the European Army will take place lol Another interesting question: Will this army be equipped with some unified equipment, ammunition ...? Or will each country continue to equip "its segment" of the European Army with the products of its military-industrial complex?
        However, in the case of the creation of a unified army and the creation of a unified military-industrial complex (in the course of "optimization" of national defense), some will earn good profits wink

      The question is, of course, very interesting. IMHO will be "steered" by the one whose "participation" in this army will prevail and who will invest the most in this clumsy creature. But in principle, you are right - Uncle Sam will give the commands, how can it be without his long nose. Yes

    Ha! Do Europeans get extra money on amusing troops? laughing
    In general, the unification is directed precisely against US pressure - it will be more difficult for the combined forces to provoke a gamble, or to force it. For the time being, they will hide behind Russia, but a serious reorganization awaits NATO. The principle of unity of command will not suffer, just the role of Europe will grow.
    In Russia, such changes will have little effect - the number of troops will not change. But the troops will become more manageable, which means more dangerous.

      Most likely, if the United States goes to the creation of the European Army, just for the sake of it. But something looking at modern Europe takes doubts about such an opportunity. Or they can’t create it already or they still can’t.

    The time has come not to create a unified army, but the EU to fragment. It is clear that the education is not viable (they themselves are to blame; they scored someone who got there). It is clear that the education is purely anti-democratic (no one elects EU commissioners and other Euro-riffraff) and has no right to exist even within the framework of traditional European values. It is clear that education is helpless - it cannot solve the simplest problem with refugees.

    Having created an army of mercenaries, Europe will solve a couple of its urgent problems, and once again drive out in front of the United States.

    The creation of a single European army is work for decades without guarantees of success:
    1. Any army implies one-man management, who in the European army is the commander in chief?
    2. Organizational staff structure can be torn off according to the NATO model, but how to organize units? for one national thing, this was an issue (the same units could only be called differently), no one canceled the multinational-language barrier (in a stressful situation and in their native language, it doesn’t reach some).
    3. The most important thing is who will pay? The army is troublesome and terribly expensive. And whoever nevertheless will pay will not indicate to others the supremacy.
    In Europe, human life is considered the highest value, but in practice it turns out that someone is more valuable (France) and someone not very (Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, African countries, etc., etc.))
