This will be a concise, brief post!
The European Union has failed, because:
- The believe an ever larger European Union (United States of Europe) could become a countervailing power to the U.S. was misguided and delusional from the beginning
- The super fast enlargement to 28 countries over a span of few decades was daring
- Too many major European agreements were seriously violated in order to continue and without repercussions and regret
- The monetary union and single market was imposed irresponsibly
- The once so much heralded subsidiarity principles was recklessly abandoned
- Countries that do not play along have been either bullied or receive vast amounts of money
- The heavy handed top down approach to form a unitary superstate has reached its limits
- Historically, the Europe was special because of its enormous variety and the many competing powers from city states to nation states. This important lesson was ignored
- What did I forget?
