Right on. If this is what they are saying, that they will be one united force, like all the states of the USA have one fedral military, then also they will only have one contribution to Nato, like the USA does.
It stands to reason that they also have only one vote and voice in the UN. The EU, is after all, going to be several states united under one body, just like the USA is.
We should in fact DEMAND that the EU have only one collective voice within the UN. Or else the USA should have 50.

"We should in fact DEMAND that the EU have only one collective voice within the UN. Or else the USA should have 50."

Would that be wise?

At the moment there are two permanent members of the UN security council who are also EU members.

France and the UK.

France obviously tends not to support the US.

While the UK does support the US

If there was only one EU vote, do you think it would support or oppose the US?
