Melech 9,900 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 "Pope Francis reportedly said Europe 'will no longer count for anything in the world' if it does not federalize Pope Francis has reportedly said that Europe “must become a federal community or it will no longer count for anything in the world”. His comments were apparently made in an interview with Eugenio Scalfari, the 93-year-old La Repubblica journalist who does not record interviews or take notes. Scalfari writes that he told Pope Francis that Europe must become a federal state if it is to deal with the ongoing migrant crisis, to which the Pope responded, “True, I have repeatedly raised this.” Pope Francis then continued, “The countries [of Europe] will act if they recognise one truth: either Europe becomes a federal community or it will no longer count for anything in the world.”" http://www.catholicherald.co.uk/news/2017/07/11/pope-francis-europe-must-be-federal/ One of the few time I agree with the Pope.

We have America on one side, Asia (soon great asia) on the other, and we are in the middle, small states fighting over stupid things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsches 17,550 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I dont know how to feel about this. On the one hand I think it's a good idea and I am very Proud to be european and I do feel european. But on the other Hand I dont want to be considered as being from the same area as someone from Portugal or bulgaria or Finnland because they are all so different. Actually I am Kind of annoyed by people from other continents travelling to, let's say Paris, and are like "omg i've totally seen europe." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

USA is way bigger than EU and also have different regions and it works! and that are only minor things compared how much relevancy europe will loose in the future if we dont unite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still have too much pride, nostalgia and some other BS nobody should care about anymore. We have so much competition right now, and should work together against a better future. I hope other states learned from Brexit and are more willing to fight together, and not against each other. Time will tell, but i hope the best, cause i just love Europe, best continent in the world.

Daredevil 2,133 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Every country in Europe is so different. Not just culturally but economically too. A Greek household earns a 1/10 of a German household and both countries have the same currency Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goosey 3,017 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Lmao Who would want to be ruled by some other country? Of course Simon is in Germany so his country will be pulling most of the strings as they have the most money "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.
