European heads of state meet in Versailles (Yvelines) from Thursday March 10 to Friday March 11. The European response to the war in Ukraine is at the heart of the discussions. 19/20 journalist Anne Bourse is live from Versailles. She returns to the issues of this meeting.
“This conflict in Europe is also testing the unity of the 27. There are several thorny issues. The two main ones remain defense and energy. On defence, we are still far from a European army so dear to France. Paris now admits that it needs 27 strong national armies”reports 19/20 journalist Anne Bourse, live from Versailles (Yvelines).
“Another issue: our energy independence. Germany and the Eastern countries are much more dependent than us on Russian gas. There should be no embargo, but the objective is to reduce imports by two thirds by the end of the year Divergences also appear on the timetable for Ukraine’s accession to the European Union. A conflict that will make Europe change faster and stronger, according to Emmanuel Macron”concludes the journalist.
