Very well researched article, Arn - thank you for this. The history of the EU unification is a quagmire not easily understood by this American (and apparently by a large number of each member countries' constituents by design). Your piece has distilled it to clarity for me.
My recurring thought as I read was that the EU is another successful Prussian operation. So much similarity to classic Prussian philosophy in these eurocrats' quotes. "Leave the governance to us, peasants. You wouldn't have the first clue".
Thank you for this in depth look at what is happening in the EU and its history. Great to see the farmers taking a stand also.

Will Zoll's Prussiagate Substack is both fascinating and alarming. https://prussiagate.substack.com/
