In a speech with strong strategic accents, the leader from Élysée emphasized that Europe must defend its interests without hesitation. Macron insisted that the community bloc "must not bow to bullies," referring to geopolitical actors (unnamed) who use force or economic coercion to destabilize the continent.
To a similar extent, the French president drew a red line regarding the internal policy of the Union. Macron warned that respect for the rule of law is not optional and not negotiable, being the essential pillar that supports the architecture of the European project. The statement was interpreted as a clear warning to member states that test the limits of liberal democracy, emphasizing that European funds and benefits are strictly conditioned on the respect for justice.
His intervention comes at a time of reconfiguration of the global order, with Macron advocating for a Europe that acts as a self-sufficient power, capable of defending and protecting its democratic model without becoming a victim of external power games.
