Enhanced Cooperation, the solution we've got ?

I love the title ;-)

Enhanced Cooperation, the solution we've got ?

« Ironically, it is with divorce that the first enhanced cooperation should be established. » :)

This path was to be expected maybe, since different legal traditions blocked progress on this issue. Same goes for pensions, i guess. Curious how Britain and others look at this.

Enhanced Cooperation, the solution we've got ?

“Some critics said that enhanced cooperation will create a two-speed Europe or “a Europe within Europe”. ”

But perhaps a two-speed Europe is just what we need ? What's the point of keeping everybody on board if that means giving up any realistic prospect of having a genuine federalism.

Thje problem with enhanced cooperations is not that it creates a two-speed Europe. The problem is that of a MULTI-speed Europe, or Europe à la carte, which totally lacks the simplicity and legibility required to make it understandable by the citizens. What we need is not a Europe of enhanced cooperations, but rather an EU of concentric circles, with a genuine European Federation at the centre.
