The obvious solution is to remove France as a permanent member, and especially stripping them of their veto power. The French no longer really merit such a position of prestige and responsiblity in world affairs, do they?

Well if the EU ever does adapt a federal constitution, I think the European seats on the Security Council will have to be reworked no matter what. It certainly wouldn't be fair for the EU to have multiple seats while the U.S., China and Russia have one each.

It certainly seems like that's the long-term goal of the EU proponents, to make acentral European government along the lines of a "United States of Europe"

But that was shot down by the French and the Dutch people. Its not going to happen.

Yeah, for the time being. But I think it'll probably happen someday, with a different document under better terms with a less ambiguous document. It will take time to re-educate and properly condition the population to it though.
