🚨*Shots Fired by Macron!*🚨

Following the stunning, but unwanted Trump victory, President Macron outlines his future vision for the #EU & #Europe

He acknowledges that Europe can no longer rely on America for its military security & economic stability, & that the EU needs to stand on its own 2 feet & see #America & #China as rivals

North Koreans are fighting #Europeans in Europe, for a Trump backed #Russian dictator

@AnthonyFStevens Macron often says things I want to hear.

Somehow though I don't remember actually doing these...

That's the issue with the #EU, it has 27 member states who all have to agree, & this includes the pro-Putin Viktor Orban of Hungary.

European politics is complex, but I sense European leaders' patience with Orban is wearing very thin.

@AnthonyFStevens *27 😉
@schmaker Well, given that he's the only one with the military means, I suppose there IS a way he could do some of those things by staging an EUCO coup and taking over during the next summit (with Poland swooping in from the East, we could call it the Barot-Sikorski Pact). But yes, in the meantime, there are 26 other vetoes in the EUCO.
(The bloated vatnik is already a political corpse, the focus on him is misplaced and feeds his ego, imo, he's not that big of a deal.)

@Veza85UE @schmaker

I think the #EU has had too light a touch with Orban, & he needs to be neutered. He's already thrown several spanners in the EU works in his support of #Putin, so I think #Europe needs to give him a shock & awe reality check sooner rather than later.
