- Аннотация: In 2020 European Union's external and defense policies seem likely to change. With European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s ambition to lead a “geopolitical Commission,” the EU opens a new external front that could exacerbate internal splits — especially between Berlin and Paris — while simultaneously risking the bloc’s relations with the rest of the world.French President Emmanuel Macron is the most important driving force behind this change. He laid out the building blocks of his approach in an interview with the Economist last year. Key to his vision is the idea that the EU must become a political and strategic player with one voice and one purpose, first in its own neighborhood and then in the world. It is no coincidence that Macron believes that a proper EU defense policy is the key to his “sovereign Europe,” and that Thierry Breton, the French commissioner, now straddles a joint internal market and defense portfolio in Brussels. But seen from the U.S., this will be an affront, especially since few EU capitals have fulfilled and are likely to fulfill their NATO promises on defense spending. https://humus.academia.edu/JumberAsatiani
