#1 Macron’s idea has been supported by Germany, EU’s dominant economic power, and the two countries have repeatedly expressed concerns that a United States under the presidency of people like Donald Trump should no longer be regarded as reliable partner.

Well, Europe (with the qualified exception of the UK) hasn't been a reliable partner for about a quarter century now, so it works out.

#4 "Separate military force" ?
At that point, there's not even a bad excuse to maintain NATO. Hasta manyana.
In other news, the Germans probably have the Brandenburg and Nord regimental colors tucked away somewhere, so the staffing can begin.

#5 Considering that Germany can't even keep an air wing flying and their tank brigades functional... I ain't too worried about a proposed EU army. It would basically be twenty generals and lawyers filing complaints against the US.

#7 The armed part of the EUSSR would be to suppress any citizenship requests by the kulaks.

One nations personnel used to coerce another nation's for the stability of the post-democratic EUSSR's sinecurists.

They just need some new taxes and a few more rules to make it work!
