The future of Europe is to become a country, not the United States of Europe but an European Union. Together we are the richest, the biggest democracy and the most powerful country in the world.
The 21st century is the globalization century and we are killing ourselves. With some influential powerful countries arising (Brazil, Russia, India and China) and the United States, Europe as it is today will die very fast. The EU way of act is still having good results in European economies, but in a globalized world we need to have a single voice and act as a single force.
As from the 15th century we conquered the world, we cannot allow others to conquer us. We are good but we need more. We need to act as a continental nation constructed by many others nations (Spain, UK…)!
We Are, In Varietate Concordi

read moreL'union européenne doit être un tremplin pour tous les citoyens européens. Mais les problèmes auxquels les citoyens de l'UE sont confrontés, notamment le chômage, ne se résoudront pas seulement en Europe. En Europe, il faut imposer des droits sociaux de base, un salaire minimum européen. Mais il faut que les citoyens du monde aient les mêmes droits sociaux et démocratiques.
Le PSE doit mener des combats dans tous les pays du monde en y pratiquant une politique visant à informer les citoyens du monde de la possibilité de s'unir pour acquérir des droits. Tous les moyens sont possibles: internet, journaux... Il faudra peut-être passer par la clandestinité dans des pays où les droits ne sont pas respectés (Chine...) mais le problème du chômage se règlera dans les pays où les droits sociaux ne sont pas respectés. L'ingérence est une obligation. Pensez-y à chaque lever du soleil. Dîtes-vous, que puis-je faire pour ces citoyens dont les droits sont bafoués. Les informer qu'une autre vie est possible. De là naîtra la contestation...
En Europe, tous les pays ne sont pas logés à la même enseigne. ll faut absolument que le PSE ait un programme visant à ce que le petit pays obtienne les droits du plus grand...

The session was presided by the leader of PS Setúbal, Victor Ramalho and some proposals were presented by activists. The session was well attended and the invited speakers delivered high quality speeches regarding the international relations of Europe. It was very helpful to have a broader view on today’s international problems and the political attitude that Europe develops towards them. As in the Faro initiative on the New Social Europe, the importance of the manifesto2009 consultation, the 2009 European Election and the PES activists initiative were also stressed - the videos on this initiative cam be seen

Hi,
Recently, the French President took a trip to Washington to say to the US congress how he "admired John Wayne". I won't elaborate.
Then John Mc Cain came to Paris and that same President promised to send more French troops to Afghanistan.
Next, the French President is preparing an alliance with Britain to develop Nuclear technology, build and export nuclear plants with the British and only the British.
He baptized a new submarine with sixteen nuclear missiles on board ("the Terrible", by the way).
I have just one thing to say : My God ! What does Germany think about that ?
Regards,
Frederic (Paris)

Hi,
Dmitri Medvedev has just been chosen by 70 % of the Russian voters to become next President of Russian federation (with Putin as Prime Minister).
1/ This election has been only PARTLY democratic but a vast majority of the people in Russia are supportive of Putin's policies and are behind Medvedev (more than 60% of th total Russian population. So, Medvedev IS representative of the russians as much as Bush is representative of the americans.
2/ Russia has 10000 nuclear warheads targeting western Europe because of the American project of an anti missile "shield" (!) in Poland and Chzec Republic.
3/ America is a debtor nation , diving into a great depression, with no cash or oil left,
whereas Russia is on the rise : A new middle class, Oil, Gas, Coal, Gold, Diamonds, A new banking, trading, commercial and economic booming system.
4/ (and most important) : Look at your geographical maps : Kaliningrad, Saint Petersburg, Moscow and most of the big Russian cities ARE in EUROPE.
5/ A bit of history : The forefathers of the white Russians where the "Varegs", Vikings coming to the region of Moscow around the tenth century A.D.
Russians Are europeans, and live mostly on the European continent.
That is to say : Most of the modern european Russians have SWEDISH ancestors : Sweden happens to be a member of the U.E. and is getting ready to join the € zone and the Schengen agreement.
6/ USA are...
