⚡🇮🇹 NEW - Former Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi calls for the federalization of Europe:
Grouping together small countries does not automatically produce a powerful bloc. This is the logic of confederation—the logic by which Europe still operates in defense, foreign policy, and fiscal matters. This model does not produce power.
A group of states that merely coordinates remains a group of states: each with a veto, each with its own calculus, each vulnerable to being picked off one by one.
Power requires Europe to move from confederation to federation. Where Europe has federated—on trade, competition, the single market, and monetary policy—we are respected as a power and negotiate as one.
Where we have not—on defense, industrial policy, and foreign affairs—we are treated as a loose assembly of middle-sized states, to be divided and dealt with accordingly.
A Europe unified on trade but fragmented on defense will find its commercial power leveraged against its security dependence.
