Army of the European Union

Why would you think that? That was a proper German resposnse and I wouldn't expect anything less from a German.:icon_cheesygrin:

I don't know that. I suspect.

[Insuperable]

Proper German response in historical context maybe. Today such statement looks rather hilarious.

They still do some bossing around today, in the EU. Is the development of German army regulated by other large European forces after WW2?

And then, the evil shadows proceed to another european massacre... Nothing will get better in a demo(n)cratic system. Europe will only get on its feet again when monarchs rise once more.

It's an economic Union... any shared military operation would need to have a unified command which would essentially put in place a unified government structure. This will not happen, and would not be in the best interest of the EU regardless. Plus, the vast majority of EU nations aren't up to the standards of the larger economies (France, Germany, Italy, Spain) whose militaries include aircraft carriers (France/Italy), superfighters (France, Germany, Italy, Spain), and nuclear weapons (France). This would by nature shift command to the larger nations, which isn't necessarily in the best interest of smaller countries.
