You clearly do not know much about European history. I'll give you a quick guide:

- France's general De Gaulle's One Europe "from Brest to Vladivostok" (1958),

- Willy Brandt's Neue Ostpolitik (1971),

- Gorbachev's "Our Common Future" 1981

- Macron: Europe "from the Atlantic to the Urals" and Putin: "from Lisbon to Vladivostok" 2018,

- Olaf Scholz too is driven by the conviction that Europe can only continue to exist in the world in the 21st century if it is united and unified.

The future of Europe lies in Europe. In a Europe united in its aim for peace and prosperity for ALL its citizens.

We all know too well, as Secretary General, Ismay has said, that the sole purpose of NATO was "to keep the Soviet Union out, the Americans in, and the Germans down'. Germans now meaning all Europeans. (as we have recently witnessed with the US bombing of Europe's Nord Stream)

It's why General de Gaulle wisely kept France out of NATO and why we Europeans should leave it. Before the US's naked imperialism, blatant terrorism and sinking global influence drag us all down.
