+ De Gaule's "Great Europe", including Russia, should be ReVived !

*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- As CoFoE's 4rth Panel of Citizens, on "EU in the World" is unfolding these Days for a 2nd Time (26-28/11/2021), "Eurofora" firmly believes that Recent Developments (f.ex. azound Belarus, Ukraine, France and Germany, EU and USA,, etc.) call for a Change, by Returning Back to the Fundamentals :

 Russia of Christianism and Cyrilic Alphabet, Tolstoi, Dostoyevski, Poushkin, Majakovski, Soshtakovich, Chaikovsky, Eisenstein, Leningrad/Saint Petersburg, Stalingrad/Volgograd, Kalina maya, Bolshoi, Russian Sports and Chess, Laika, Gagarin, Andrei Tarkovsky, Soyouz, (etc), are part of Our European History, Identity, Continent, and Future.

Initialy called "the Road from Greeks to the Skandinavians", Russia joined Poland, Lithuania, Germans, Venice, the Vatican and Others in a succesful "Holly Alliance" to Free Europe from the Turkish Ottoman Invasion/Occupation, Fought Together with France and England at Navarino Victory (1828), Won against NAZIsm in Eastern Europe, became integral part of De Gaulle's "Great Europe", served "Detente" after Helsinki Summit, became CoE's Member during Mitterand, formed the "Trilateral" : "France-Germany-Russia" with Chirac-Kohl-Yeltsin etc. since 1998, created "Mir" (Peace) Space Station (+prepares now "ROSS"), Helped Syria face ISIL's a.o. Islamist Terrorists cowardly Killing Civilians, (etc).

If the EU kept Friendly Links with Russia, Europe's PIB Growth would be Boosted, ESA would have a SpaceCraft (that even USA hasN't), Europeans would be since the 2000s already on Mars and Exploring Space, a TTGV could Link Madrid/Paris/Berlin/Varsaw/Moscow to Vladivostok/Beizing/Shanghai, Great Europe would Control its Neighborhood, and might have Jointly Invented Cure + Vaccine against the Deadly Virus, (etc).

=> But  a 2014 Foreign Intervention in Ukraine, Snipers killing a Peace Deal, Civil War, etc.,have, meanwhile, Divided Europe...

It's Time for this to Stop !
