Post-Lisbon EU needs a European Army

Not mine, but an idea floated buy the Italians...

Lord help us.. How do we integrate the Challenger tanks with the Italian ones that only have reverse gears ?

Italy is to push for the creation of a European Army after the "new Europe" takes shape at this week's crucial EU summit following the adoption of the Lisbon Treaty.

Franco Frattini, the Italian Foreign Minister, said that the Lisbon Treaty had established "that if some countries want to enter into reinforced co-operation between themselves they can do so". This was already the case with the euro and the Schengen accords on frontier-free travel, and could now be applied to "common European defence".
