I catch myself judging myself as that 13-year-old boy, who, of course, rightfully points out that he is only a child.

A two-speed Europe will not be a strong Europe. The idea of making decisions and policies in a narrow circle, disregarding smaller EU members, will make it hard to engage them to commit to a common policy, which will weaken the union. ↗
