French President Emmanuel Macron said today in Lisbon that he was planning three rounds of Europe in 15 years, according to BTA.
In response to a question about his vision of the future of Europe, asked a meeting with citizens, in which the Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Kosta was also involved, Macron expressed the opinion opinion that the political structure would change in the coming years. "I foresee a broad circle that could also cover countries beyond the 27s, on average between the EU and the current Council of Europe," said the French president. This enlarged Europe will be less integrated than the EU but will retain much of its values, he added.
The larger circle will include, perhaps as members or through closer badociation agreements, Turkey and Turkey. Russia If we want peace, we must achieve stability with these two powers, said Macron.
The second round will "no doubt somewhere between the current EU and the euro zone," said the French president. It will have a "strong single market, with a policy of sovereignty, commercial policy, research and innovation", as well as a "true freedom of movement in its countries"
The third round will be "the heart of the reactor", with a common currency and a much more integrated labor market, as well as a real social cohesion. The countries concerned
"will have followed the logic of the euro area," said Macron, adding that he wanted France to be one of them.
During the debate that brought together about 500 people Macro also said that the future of Europe will be determined over the next five years. "We will fundamentally change Europe, or we will accept its status quo and its gradual decline," he warned
