Yes, indeed. And now Juncker is trying to pass CETA without national parliaments and that is currently backfiring, too. There was this moment during the crisis where I think we could have moved forward with EU bonds, a proper banking union, increased EU budged and debt relief for Greece. But now we are stuck with a deteriorating status quo. I blame Merkel for lack of leadership but maybe she just knows the limits of what she can push through.
