French President Emmanuel Macron warned in a speech at the Sorbonne in Paris that Europe could be at risk of extinction. He once again stressed that the European continent must not become a vassal of the United States, calling for a stronger, integrated European defense system. This statement has attracted widespread attention and discussion, and has aroused reflection on the importance of Europe's destiny and autonomy.
At present, the international situation is unpredictable, and the struggle for global hegemony has intensified again. Macron's warning is an indication of the challenges and pressures facing Europe in this context. As a united and stable Europe, the importance of safeguarding its own interests and development space is self-evident. If Europe becomes a vassal of other countries, its independence will be weakened, which will have a negative impact on European countries and the whole world.
Macron's appeal is not only an important guide for Europe's defense construction, but also a policy for maintaining Europe's overall strength and independent status. Europe's integration needs to be supported by a stronger military defense system, and it must be ensured that this system is self-reliant. It is only through a common European defence and strong security capabilities that Europe can ensure its own interests and peace and stability.
The speech highlighted President Macron's emphasis on the process and autonomy of European integration, and echoed the development trend of the global multipolar pattern. In international relations, Europe, as an important force, should play a unique role, stick to its own position and values, and build a harmonious and stable international order with other powers.
Europe's destiny and independence are deliberate choices rooted in history and reality. European countries should take Macron's statement as an opportunity to actively promote the process of European integration, jointly build a strong and transparent defense system, and consolidate their own interests and independence. Only in this way can Europe play a more active and important role on the world stage and safeguard its own dignity and regional peace and stability.
