Is it only me or does anyone else think something has gone wrong with the EU? Shouldn’t it have prevented wars and poverty promoting collaboration and solidarity? Especially for the countries which joined with the 2007 expansion like the ones mentioned in the post, I think their expectations were utterly “betrayed”.
@MetaPhrastes the EU has been incredibly effective at preventing wars between it’s members, before they were always at war, since the EU never again. And you just need to step out of the EU to see wars…
You don’t have to be a economist to see how much the Romanian and Bulgarian economies improved since joining. But there are no magic pills, it takes time.
So yeah, hopefully it’s only you with such a simplistic and alienated view, unfortunately we know you aren’t the only one.
