This is the best news in years for a sovereign Europe. The planets may soon be briefly aligned for some badly needed reforms, which require unanimity among EU states. The crucial factor is that France and Germany are led by Europeanists who both want action. Potential spoilers Slovakia and Czechia can be persuaded, unlike Orbán's Hungary. The window may close with France's election next year.

Genuinely curious to hear from the folks flagging this. It’s pretty directly related to anyone doing business in or around Europe, and has direct implications for swaths of EU policy.
