PARIS — French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday urged EU member states to agree on “massive, common funding” to unlock investments of hundreds of billions of euros for European defense and security.
“We will give a mandate to the European Commission to define our capacity needs for a common defense,” Macron said in an interview published in several French newspapers on Sunday. “This massive funding probably reaches hundreds of billions of euros,” he said.
His comments come ahead of a special EU summit set for Thursday that will be focused on defense.
So we’re like 0.5Bn people, lets shake up a couple of euro bills each.
200 Euro per person? Shut up and take my money.
I wonder what US military suppliers think of all this?
Isn’t a EU a huge buyer? They sure as heck won’t be anymore.
They’ll be selling to Russia instead, I guess.
I made a comment that we will know we have reached a full geo political flip once CNN proudly announces:
The first weapons delivery to the Russian Federation has been completed, in their brave fight against Ukrainian nazi regime who is being enabled by the EU in shameless genocide of the Russian speakers across Europe! US is looking to stay of the war but Russia continue to suffer on the battle field D Day 2 is on the table and this time we won’t come as an “ally”
Time to join the French Foreign Legion, I guess.

He’s also a narcissistic liar high on power. He can go…
