  1. The EU is not a country. And noone in the EU wants it to be. United to the outside and diverse on the inside is enough for most countries.

  2. Well it's called G20 for a reason. You need to have an economy 20th or better. However the EU has it's own seat there and a lot of G20 countries are EU members. So if you are an EU member you also get some represenation there.

  3.  @ad_astra468  Since the EU is not a country not different. The EU is a federation of countries. Sharing a face to the outside but inside everyone is for himself.

  4. That's rubbish. Finland has to put 2% of their GDP into military expenses ... like every other NATO member. Everyone pays for himself. The US never get any money from any other NATO member this was a lie perpetuated by Trump and the US Right-Wing that some NATO member somehow "not pay their dues." But even if ... the US would have never seen any cent of it because everyone pays for himself. The idea is to ensure that everyone has enough military ready to send troops to other NATO members. Nothing more nothing less.

  5. Have to agree. I feel very sorry for the Russian people. They deserve better. Instead they have a thief who steals their money and resources from them for personal gain and throws them constantly in military conquests and wars instead of trying to gain western levels of civilization. I hope one day Russia has a better government and consider joining the EU and we can finally put the 20th century behind us.

  6. What's wrong with proper border checks? If you want to move to a country go through the legal routes and not scare the local population.

  7. Always was. No borders on the inside, strong borders on the outside.
