<<EU takes Portugal, Greece and Malta to court for failing to transpose renewable energy and hydrogen targets into law>>
Basically, the EU be like "we're not a totalitarian superstate, but you better don't act like you're a sovereign state with it's own legislation and stuff, or we'll sue your ass". Cute, ain't it?
@ThatCrazyDude As long as individual countries have veto power in important questions, nothing will happen, since the EU cannot enforce anything. The countries will just refuse, and block important questions, and that is that. Just look at Hungary, they happily spied on behalf of russia, and the worst that happen is that they did not get some EU funds.
If EU starts to withhold funds en masse, it will risk getting humiliated by more countries eventually leaving since without EU funds there woul
@ThatCrazyDude d be no reason for them to stay in the EU.
My prediction is that the EU will abolish the veto of members, another guess is that they will change how votes are counted to penalize nationalist parties. A third change is a split, whereby a "deeper" EU is created, and funds and "benefits" to the outer EU will gradually be restricted in the hope that they will join the inner EU where they give away their national sovereignty.
Let's see if 10 years time if I am correct!
