That's your personal opinion and you're of course welcome to that, though I'm curios why you take such an offence to other regions with a different political situation, cultural history, and most importantly security concerns

From the second sentence of the article: > Non-adherence comes with Significant Fines (15 million euros or 2.5% of annual turnover, whichever is higher) I don't know where you got the idea that this proposal suggest unbounded fines.
