I want a United States of Europe! Europe is our home and our only chance to live in a society governed by liberal values and principles, which have been the foundation of Western civilization. Europe is home to the 5 million Romanians who left their country in search of a better life. Europe is where we go on vacation. Europe is the cradle of democracy. Europe is our family. Yes, America saved us at least twice in the last hundred-odd years. And I, as a simple citizen of Romania, part of Europe, will forever be grateful to the memory of the hegemon that gave me the opportunity to dream of a perpetually better life when I was a child. But today, those who make decisions on behalf of America no longer have anything in common with the American dream (my dream), with the values promoted by America, or even with their anthem, "land of the brave, home of the free." Today, right now, those who lead America have turned their guns on our home, Europe, extending a huge helping hand to our greatest enemy, Russia. The morally decaying hegemon, convinced by the spells of the criminal from the East, is ready to tear down our home. They want to convince the confused and those bent on betrayal that a "Europe of nations" is what we need. No! A Europe of nations means a fragmented Europe, devoid of political and economic bargaining power. It means a fragmented Europe. It means the end of the last structure that imperfectly and bureaucratically, clumsily and awkwardly protects people first and then profits. I don't want that. Europe is the one that wants to regulate AI. The one that wants to regulate social media. The one that fines American giants for violating our rights. It is Europe that puts a stop to harmful food imports from America, has a much lower crime rate than America and a much higher standard of living. It is Europe that cannot understand how there can be no free education or free healthcare. Yes, it is not perfect, and that should come as no surprise to anyone, because rivers of blood have flowed here for thousands of years. For pride, for territory, for wealth, for political games, for the dreams of psychopaths. But there has been peace since the European Union was created. The European Union has been the most important guarantor of human progress in our home. Now is the time for European leaders, including those in Romania, to correctly analyze the signals of struggle against us and to act quickly towards an even stronger Union. Towards the United States of Europe!
