Very much agree. The EU has proven surprisingly resilient to react to crises that hit with a shock moment requiring quick action. But has high difficulties in dealing with slow moving structural challenges that don't have a single shock moment.

Smart piece: the debate on European defence is a lot like that on climate change: experts agree on how bad things are and on what we need to do to get out of it.
But the action to do so just isn't happening. Instead we have denial, dithering and magical thinking.
Until we ran into the wall?
