The EU is to set up a new military unit as part of its plans for greater defense cooperation, according to several diplomats — just don’t call it an EU military HQ.
The Military Planning and Conduct Capabilities (MPCC) unit would be responsible for the EU training missions in Somalia, Mali and Central African Republic, and EU countries have agreed on all the major outstanding issues, according to four diplomats and two EU officials who spoke on condition of anonymity as they are involved in the talks.
nent of greater EU defense cooperation — prepares to leave the bloc and as U.S. President Donald Trump puts pressure on Europe to spend more on defense.
This is ridiculous posturing unless there is some ulterior motive to attack Russia or to act as an inter EU enforcer No EU country has the military capability for independent military action not even combined France had to beg the US for transport planes for its Mali intervention Holland has zero tanks Only people in EU who has sizable military and a population jingoistic enough to use it are the Eastern euros So the target is either Russia or to try and stop countries from leaving
watch it's the yuropoors that start another world war. what a failed continent

>EU has shit military
Hmmm, it's almost like a united army is one of the incentives and ways to improve that so we can finally kick you american dogs out and create a strong union.
Sometimes I wonder how people with IQ's as low as yours even breathe.

The EU would have a decent sized military if they threw money at the Slavs
It propbably costs half as much to maintain a trained Polack or Czech
Maybe pooling resources is a way for countries like Germany to get around the NATO 2% rule
Throw money at Slavic cannon fodder and let them get maimed, also Western Europeans are too soft

You obviously did not read my post or have an understanding of European militaries They lack key capabilities to be an effective fighting force They have no heavy transport They have no aircraft carriers Some of them have no tanks France has to have half its military patrolling the country for terrorists Germany can't afford live ammo excercises

>No sizeable navy able to project power >no sizeable airforce on the whole continent >most nations have no tanks >needs to have a standard training regime for its personnel >needs to have a standard language (its either english or German) >no heavy transport >need standardized equipment and supplies/ammo >needs a clear mission statement or nations will leave the EU
Even if it happens, it will take over a decade to unfuck their shit

I don't think it has anything to do with Trump demanding 2%.
It has to do with Globalists feeling impotent when they lose control the NATO apparatus.
