The Visegrád countries believe it’s time for the European Union to have its own army.
The Visegrád Four, which consist of the Czech Republic, Hungary,
Poland, and Slovakia, had already been toying for some time with the
idea of having their own battle group.
These battle groups, first conceived in 2003 by Britain and France to
provide the EU with flexible forces that could deploy rapidly, do little
else except train.
So the idea that the Visegrád countries are now pushing for the EU to have its own army when they can’t even mobilize a battle group lacks all credibility. Indeed, the calls are half-baked if not insincere. The EU is not going to have its own army, not least in the near future, for the following reasons.
