Since the EU started out as an economic union, it seems on the contrary very logical that its priority is regulating the market rather than military considerations.
Cooperation on military and foreign affairs is developing though, so I think you are just misinformed on the EU and its purpose.
- LAC-Tech 4y agoI understand how the EU started and its purpose. I Just find it a bizarre way to integrate inside out, by aligning internal economic policies. The cynic in me thinks it thrives because it's a bureaucrat and civil service wet dream. I feel like the hardcore pro-european people must feel this deep down and be deeply ashamed that - in 2022 - they are still completely reliant on the US security umbrella despite their increasing edge (on paper at least) over their neighbouring "rival".
