Commission president calls to end unanimity in EU foreign policy decisions

  1. The bar should still be high, like 75% or 90% support. It just needs to bypass the ridiculously common situation of countries like Poland or Hungary abusing veto power to stall the EU at every turn.
    Especially if we let countries like Serbia join, holy shit they’d veto anything that puts pressure on Russia.

  2. an unfederal country without an army cannot make foreign policy decisions for countries that do have armies. This makes no sense whatsoever and just shows how disconnected from reality Bruxelites are

  3. I am pretty surprised that people here consistently claim that “the member states would never accept such loss of sovereignty”. The treaty of Lisbon already replaced unanimity with qualified majority voting in many important areas, including immigration, defense policy, police cooperation and EU budget.
