The State of the European Union

Claire daily is an Irish member of the European Parliament. She says that various treaties like the Treaty of Nice and Lisbon laid a groundwork for involvement in foreign affairs and militarism. The anti-war people have gone they're really now at this point very much wound up in identity politics which is true of this country too I think so that's not unusual she also says there's a great amount of influence being exerted in the European Union by National Endowment for Democracy but also American think tanks largely funded by the military industrial complex.
