    This might be the most remarkable geopolitical document I’ve seen come out of a major European institution so far this century.

    France’s Parliament has just produced an extraordinary 153-page report that calls for nothing less than a complete strategic realignment of Europe.

    The document systematically dismantles the EU’s current geopolitical positioning - “vassalized” to the U.S., in the report’s words - as a catastrophic failure that has led to the EU seeing “its influence diminish and its interests poorly protected.”

    The report details 50 recommendations from the “creation of a common world currency” (recommendation #14) to dedollarize the global economy, to “replacing the EU’s strategy in the Indo-Pacific region with a cooperative approach including China” (recommendation #11).

    In general the report’s central recommendation is that Europe break free from Atlantic subordination and instead achieve strategic autonomy by partnering with China.

    This would mark a complete historical reversal - for the first time since the colonial era, the historical West choosing equal strategic partnership with a Global South nation as an alternative to Western alliance structures.

    The report (which you can find here: https://assemblee-nationale.fr/dyn/17/rapports/due/l17b1588_rapport-information.pdf) is in French so I wrote a detailed article breaking down its most explosive findings and recommendations, an explaining why this could be its last chance to avoid irrelevance in a multipolar world.
