European Commission President announces possibility of creating a common European army

The creation of a European army is inevitable because in the future it will be difficult for the United States to care about Europe's security, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said.

The President of the European Commission has declared that the creation of a European army is inevitable.

Mr. Juncker was in Berlin at the invitation of German Chancellor Angela Merkel and spoke at an event organized by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation. The speech was broadcast on the European Commission's website.

"We owe a lot to the Americans, especially this country and this city, but in the long term they will no longer take care of European security. This is something we have to do ourselves, and that is why we need to push forward a new process on the topic of a European defense union and even a European army. These are the notes of the future and they have already started to sound, but many Europeans have not yet heard them," Mr. Juncker declared.
