Thank you based Americans.

I would even defend an obligatory 2-month boot camp for every man and woman aged 18, just to serve as leverage against possible attacks.

It's not false, mate, you guys have a good army because you are a big country with lots of people willing to fight under the same orders.

Europe would be harder, since most of them wouldn't follow orders from a foreigner.

You have a bunch of good units, I'm not trying to dispute that, but a random sample of 50 men in the american army vs a random sample of any European country wouldn't be tipped your way. Nor the other, really, but you guys aren't that special, pound for pound.

France and the UK have been driving the development of the ESDP (EU military) since the end of the Cold War.
France has always been desperate to expand it into an autonomous EU military capability, but the UK has staunchly blocked and prevented this at every turn, making sure that the ESDP remains part of (and compatible with) NATO.
Now that the UK has gone the EU should expect a military capability within the decade.

I for one support the creation of an EU army. The sooner shit like this is done the sooner we can form a new HRE.

Retarded shit that will be absused by the butthurt belt for Anti-Russian activities and the French for their African colonies. Other than them no one gains anything.

I don't think Europeans even need an army.

They should instead use their economic might to threaten the shit out of others.

But they can't even agree to that. The US basically had to force them to put sanctions on Russia.

The EU sanctions then crushed Russia's economy in a matter of weeks/months.

I don't want a single British man to ever die for the EU. The only reason for war now is justified defense of British peoples and land or all out WW3, in which case we're all dead anyway.
