European Economic Government Wanted

G. Klossa & J-F. Jamet | March 11, 2010

What used to be inconceivable, is today desirable and even essential. ++ As mentioned by the President of the EU, a European economic government should be the centre of all the EU efforts and attention for three reasons. ++ First, the crisis revealed the lack of coordination among national member states' economies; second, the failed Lisbon strategy proved the EU needs to boost its growth rate and competitiveness and third, the EU needs a coherent voice in a world economy led increasingly by developing countries.

I like this comment! What's this?
After the Lisbon teaty and the ongoing aspirations for an EU enlargement extending up to the Urals (maybe also beyond) and the Caspian Sea, EU seems to be reverting to the original concept of a common maket upon which it had been established.

If this may be achieved, then the EU may be revived to move ahead towards becoming the Wold'sgreatest super power eventually.

Thanks,
Mustafa
