Kurt Zindulka<\/a> – September 23, 2021<\/p>\n President Emmanuel Macron is willing to trade control of France\u2019s permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council to Brussels in exchange for European Union member states backing his plan to forge an EU Army, an ally of the French leader has said.<\/p>\n Macron, who at the start of his presidency declared<\/a> that he wished to govern like the Roman God Jupiter, is set to become the European Union\u2019s most influential leader with Chancellor Angela Merkel set to step down after Sunday\u2019s elections in Germany.<\/p>\n Part of this Jupitarian strategy will be to push for the creation of a centrally controlled European Army with France at the helm in the wake of President Biden\u2019s bungled withdrawal from Afghanistan and the AUKUS defence pact signed between the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.<\/p>\n In order to accomplish the lofty goal of a centralized European military force, Mr Macron is reportedly willing to cede control of France\u2019s permanent position on the UN Security Council.<\/p>\n A close Macron ally,\u00a0Sandro Gozi told<\/a> The Telegraph<\/em>:\u00a0\u201cI think that if we move on these things we can put on the table also the discussion on the Security Council.\u201d<\/p>\n The former Italian Europe minister and current transnational MEP for Macron\u2019s party in Brussels added:\u00a0\u201cWe must be prepared to confirm our transatlantic alliance but also to become adult in terms of our security and take on our responsibility\u2026 Certainly, Macron will push a lot. I would say this is probably his highest priority now.\u201d<\/p>\n France is currently the only EU member state to have a permanent seat on the UN Security Council after the UK left the bloc at the beginning of this year. While Brussels does not have a seat on the influential body, it sits in \u201cobserver\u201d status.<\/p>\n The indication of a potential trade of the UN seat for a France-led EU Army comes as the French are set to take control of the rotating EU presidency on January 1st. President Macron is set to lead a joint summit on European defence alongside the EU Council president and close Macron ally Charles Michel during the six-month period in which France controls the presidency.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a unique opportunity for him and for Europe,\u201d said Mr Gozi.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.breitbart.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kurt Zindulka – September 23, 2021 President Emmanuel Macron is willing to trade control of France\u2019s permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council to Brussels in exchange for European Union member states backing his plan to forge an EU Army, an ally of the French leader has said.
