European Tribune - Comments

Containing Them | 118 comments (118 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

I have no problem at all, really, with an EU Common Foreign and Security Policy worth its name and a proper European Defence Agency, even though I can't see much use in the second as we already have NATO.

NATO exists. NATO works. Why change something that works and replace it with something that might not?
