Federica Mogherini, Rector of the College of Europe, speaking during a conference in Belgrade, estimated that one of the effects of the coming to power of the Trump administration will be the accession of one or two new states to the Union.

We hope that happens, he said, adding that the return of Donald Trump to power means more investment in security and defense in Europe.

Paraphrasing the French economist Jean Monnet, she quoted that: "The EU must be on the brink of a catastrophe to be able to act quickly and united".

Mogherini added that when the perception of the scale of the challenge is shared among EU leaders, decisions are made quickly.

She mentioned a united front that the EU made after Brexit and during the COVID pandemic as examples of this, reports ATSh.

"There is no country in Europe that is big enough to negotiate with Trump alone. That is why, even if Trump is for a bilateral approach, they should be united for that negotiating table as well," said Mogherini. /europeanwesternbalkans/
