COMUNITATEA POLITICĂ EUROPEANĂ – O VIZIUNE FRANCEZĂ PRIVIND VIITORUL EUROPEI

Abstract

Emmanuel Macron’s idea for an European Political Community, launched on May 9, 2022, on the occasion of Europe Day, is part of the French traditional political thinking on the strategic autonomy of Europe. The French President's proposal was focused on two main ideas: political cooperation and European sovereignty. We find these ideas in other French Presidents’ proposals for the Europe organization after World War II and the creation of the first European Communities. These proposals also failed to be implemented, for various reasons.
