THE BASIC FACTS ABOUT THE ‘EU ARMY’
From EU and NATO official sources
21 April 2019
Mrs May’s Government has been binding us into all of this, without the knowledge of most MPs.
Here we present a Brexit Facts4EU.Org Summary
Defence and Mrs May’s ‘Brexit’
EU defence budgets are rocketing – more than a 50-fold increase in budget starting January 2021
EU is accelerating its development of an ‘EU Army’ to replace NATO in Europe
UK Government has quietly been signing us up to EU defence structures since the Referendum
The UK will continue paying billions of pounds, and Parliament hasn’t been properly informed
MPs HAVE NOT BEEN INFORMED – Here is just one example:-
On 22 June 2017, the Prime Minister attended the European Council at which defence was the top item on the agenda.
European Council decisions
SECURITY & DEFENCE was the first section.
Mrs May approved the ‘European Defence Fund’, the ‘European Defence Industrial Development Programme’, the funding of EU Battlegroups, and the setting up of permanent structured defence within the EU.
Mrs May’s Commons Statement
DEFENCE NOT MENTIONED ONCE
Mrs May failed to mention DEFENCE to MPs at all. It was as if it hadn’t even been discussed, when in
fact it was the number one item at the Summit.
WHAT THE EU ARE SAYING, DOING, AND SPENDING
The huge increase in EU defence spending to €31 billion includes a €10.5bn off-the-books fund controlled by the unelected de facto EU Defence Secretary, Ms Mogherini.
“It took us a few weeks. And we decided it together, still at 28, and we did it.”
“Over this past year our common [EU] defence has advanced more than in the previous
60 years.”
Federica Mogherini, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs & Security
Policy, June 2017
“The first missions under EU flag were launched already [sic] back in 2003. Since then,
34 EU missions have operated on three continents.”
EU’s ‘European External Action Service’, 24 August 2018
The UK defence industry wants us to stay in all EU military structures. So do the MoD
mandarins. And so does Mrs May, under whom our national defence is at serious risk.
This is now an urgent issue for all MPs.
