An EU Army can challenge China and Russia - Here is why

Will an EU military superpower rival the US, China and Russia? And how would an EU army work? How strong would it be? Could it rival the other great powers? This video will address these questions by evaluating military spend and military numbers. It will also briefly look at a Federal Europe, a pre-requisite of a European army. With Putin, Xi Jinping and Biden (or a future Trump) holding most the military power, this video will look if a EU army can compete. Correction: (thanks to Riccardo Gemme in the comments): The new Italian Aircraft Carrier is going to take the place of one of the 2 already in service. The Garibaldi - Will be decommisioned (there are rumours that it may be used as a drone ship) Trieste - The new carrier that will take Garibaldi’s place Cavour - The current flagship of the italian navy Timestamps: 1:11 How would an EU army work 2:37 Military Spending Compared 4:50 Military Spending Compared (incl.
