The Council has decided that the representatives of both the European institutions and the national Parliaments will work on a European Charter of fundamental rights. However, Europe doesn’t need an additional declaration, it needs to create a federal power which will allow for the realization of those rights instead by promoting the citizens dignity, security, and well-being.
The Union’s enlargement is unavoidable, but a 27 or 28 Member States Europe, with the current institutional framework would be come absolutely ungovernable if we don’t discard the intergovernmental method and then create a federal group.
The European unification process is facing an impasse and the final choice of a european federation will be the only way out of it. Yet, governments don’t want to give up the dogma of national sovereignty and the intergovernmental method. Moreover, proposals such as modifying article 48 and the majority vote will only serve the interest of pro-sovereignty movements.
