If it was an EU army, then probably. If it's a European army, then being European, you would hope, would be enough to qualify.

 

Italy would struggle to qualify.

Definitely time for an European Army, thing is THE most capable and battle hardened army must be the Ukrainians, do we include them?

Not if we want to walk straight into a direct armed conflict with Russia

I'm yet to be convinced there aren't too many differing interests and philosophies to really make it viable, or that there's currently enough will among the European nations to properly fund it

They'd spend their time debating the contents of the mess tins and whether the troops should receive frankfurters, sausages, salami or chorizo

Yep! 

We need to start asserting ourselves as a continent again. 

We can't risk watching all these spheres of influence expand while we go backwards. 

And I hate to say it. But I can envisage a future where we have to protect our interests against the US sadly.

Why do folk talk just of an Army when most conflicts these days involve mainly air and naval assets over land ones?

Pedantry aside, any force would have to be in line with political allegiance not geographical.

Nice try comrade Dimron.

Once Trump has gone everything will return to normal.

We just need to hope his internal organs fail sooner rather than later or the files are actually released.

Either way, anyone supporting him at this point is insane or unable to admit they were wrong. Bolty, basically.

Do you reckon it will return to normal though? I'm not sure it will. And I still think there a good chance JD Vance wins the next election. 

There's also a good chance that we vote Reform in - the Dems take the US - and we look like complete cretins internationally - in North America and Europe. 

Whoopdeedoo! 😂

Trump needs to die of natural causes really, the sooner the better. Any assassination or foul play would only make him a martyr

I would hope enough Americans are feeling the pinch and will vote with their hip pocket nerves or some such shite.

He said everything would be cheaper and there’d be no more wars.

So…

To be fair - he did manage to sort Ukraine, solve inflation and not get involved in any overseas conflicts. So at least he's a man of his word. Unlike Starmer! 😡

To be fair, wrong though it is, I think most people would include an airforce and navy as well when referring to a European army
