Nope. Free trade is not god for EU
The Eu wants to protect its fledgling trade - the uk leaving will take away the second biggest contributor and the 2nd and only nuclear power in Europe leaving France with that honour
Military matters arent really important for the EU
NATO takes care of that
Which Britbongs are staying in regardless
The EU has wanted an army of its own since 10 years ago (only just revealed in the last 4)
So if they offer a country outside a free trade without the usual models (Aka Norway for example, or Turkey), they won't do it.
@Rick Turpin That fledling trade at the moment still the strongest trade zone.
Will change after UK leaves, but will be important (for a while at least)
@Chawosaurian EU just wnated to do their own army.
NATO isn’t always going to be there
One of the campaign point of Brexiteers that they do not want an unified command.
Its thers for now
@Rick Turpin That is why they are pushing and this liks with Ukraine too.
The EU Globalists want an EU army
But they dont have any
Erdogan is blackmailing the EU into joining, I can sympathize with Brexit for wanting to get the fuck out while they still could
And cant do shit yet anyway
So breaking the international law and not acting as US on the treaty one signed, Eu pushed forward this plan of EU army.
Gl pushing an army
Actually the opposite. Erdogan drove further away Turkey from joining and he prides himself as such.
Euros are too complacent of having fuck all military spending
@Muad'Dib I take no moral standpoint on here. Brexit have some other underlying issues aside of Eu though, more to do with teh 4 nations.
I must have been thinking about the threats of unleashing the "refugees"
Turkey wanted to join but EU wasn’t too impressed at the end and turkey has had a shakey human rights record -
And UK political structure itself.
@Muad'Dib Yes, but that was about economical gains, and not joining.
They wanted EU to chip in extra support to keep teh refugee camps
So Turkey is already in EU trade zone, as in they can trade freely.
Letting Turkey in aint good optics
But they can't do their individual trade deals.
They sit together with EU.
In a trade deal.
Lol wtf was that
I think the EU could have saved themselves a big headache and just not have unelected people in Brussels making laws for people who speak a different language
wrong chat
srry
i am tho
Realistically neither Turkey (rising nationalist) wants to join, neither Europe keen of it anymore.
it's mitzvah
