If the European Union wants to have an impact in foreign policy, it needs to speak with one voice.
Three simple starting points:
1. Majority voting.
2. One seat in the UN Security Council.
3. Use available tools together, not individually.
Realistic? No. Doable? Yes.

.@vonderleyen and @JosepBorrellF doing an excellent job in projecting a common European foreign policy.
It is an uphill battle, but can be achieved step-by-step. The solutions will always be sub-optimal, but the direction is clear.
One step closer to a geopolitical Commission.

It is completely pointless to talk about strategic autonomy if it actually means driving the interests of a single country.
It is equally pointless to talk about the EU as a single foreign policy entity if it means projecting the power nostalgia of only one of its members.
