The 2025 Eurobarometer reveals record support for a common EU defense policy, signaling that European citizens now favor federal solutions more strongly than political elites. Growing geopolitical threats and U.S. uncertainty are driving a popular push toward a sovereign, united Europe
… a clarification of our positions and a contribution to a debate we believe to be of vital importance
What Together for Europe is aiming for, in brief…
The July 27 Trump–von der Leyen trade deal starkly exposed Europe’s institutional weakness, deepening U.S. dependency while delivering negligible gains. Only a Federal European State, transcending intergovernmental fragmentation, can restore strategic autonomy and prevent Europe’s progressive subordination in twenty-first-century geopolitics.
From military dependence to economic subservience, the EU risks fracturing into powerless client states. The only escape? A federal European democracy—or irreversible decline. The choice can’t wait.
The EU faces a dual crisis: democratic erosion and geopolitical paralysis. Together for Europe argues that only a democratic federal Europe can restore legitimacy, counter populism, and respond decisively to global challenges. The choice is federation—or fragmentation.
