For the candidate, the European Union’s approach is a “mistake” and a “communication” operation.
The procedure was launched at the beginning of the week. Since Monday, the European Union has officially considered the applications for membership of Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova. As Russia continues its invasion, Erik Zemmour sees this approach as a “mistake.” Invited on BFMTV/RMC on Tuesday, the candidate denounced the mere “communication” operation and warned against “an act of war against Russia.”

“Everyone knows that it takes years and years, even ten years, to bring a country into the European Union, so that they integrate the acquis of the community,” the former journalist said in the preamble. Before pointing out that member countries must first “integrate the community acquis”. Difficult business, because Ukraine represents in his eyes a “rather poor society” and “a very corrupt political society.”
“First of all”, Eric Zemmour considers this EU decision “very dangerous”. According to him, any accession of the country to the Union will lead to the fact that it will have a “connection with NATO.” Thus, this choice will be tantamount to committing an “act of war against Russia” and “further intensifying escalation.” “I believe that today we must bring down the conflict and try to return everyone to the negotiating table,” for his part, he defended the candidate.
