The “woke, decadent” EU is not facing a decline regardless of what critics say, and some people, including nearly half of Canadians, “still want” to join it, the bloc’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has claimed.
Kallas made the remarks at the Munich Security Conference on Sunday, as she urged the bloc to “reclaim agency”and seek a “stronger role in the world.”She dismissed concerns that the EU may be facing an “erasure” altogether, hitting out at unnamed critics.
“Contrary to what some may say, woke, decadent Europe is not facing civilizational erasure. In fact, people still want to join our club. And not just fellow Europeans. When I was in Canada last year, I was told that over 40 percent of Canadians have an interest in joining the EU!” Kallas insisted.
