En inte helt purfärsk artikel som jag läste idag men som jag ändå tycker är högaktuell. Kommer Ryssland att göra gemensam sak med EU i ändens tid. Som jag förstått saken skall ju Antikrist samtidigt som han kallas Nordlandskungen i Dan. 11 och Gog i Hes. 38 o. 39 också representera ett förnyat Romarrike enligt Dan. 2 o. 7. Samtidigt som vi nu håller ögonen på Obama så får vi inte missa vad som nu händer i den gamla världen. När Odjuret som kommer står på höjden av sin makt kommer han ju för en tid att ha underlagt sig hela världen.

Saxar:

 

French President and EU presidency holder Nicolas Sarkozy yesterday (21 October) unveiled a new cooperation strategy with Russia that would build stronger economic links between Europe and its largest Eastern European neighbour.

Speaking in the European Parliament in Strasbourg, Sarkozy called Russia "our neighbours" and surprised the audience by alluding to "a common economic space between Russia and the EU".

The term recalls the early stages of EU history, which saw the development of a 'common market' that was subsequently renamed the 'single market' in the 1980s.

Sarkozy's view of Russia sharing a common economic space marks another step in his attempt to forge a new relationship with Moscow based on trust and tighter integration.

At a recent meeting in Evian, the French president and his Russian counterpart Dmitry Medvedev voiced similar messages about the need to reconstruct Europe's security architecture (EurActiv 09/10/08).

"I don't see Russia as a determined rival to the European Union," Sarkozy told the Parliament. "I think, on the contrary, that it would be necessary, in the future, to lay the basis of a common economic space between Russia and the EU, which will be, by the way, the best way to obtain from them that they get closer to the values of respect for human rights and democracy which we share in Europe."

He added that Europe and Russia needed each other, with Russia possessing the energy resources and Europe the technology that Moscow needs.

Transatlantic tensions

Without directly naming the United States, Sarkozy revealed that "others" considered military options when the conflict in Georgia erupted on 8 August, a solution which he described as "madness".

"Some said, and had [their] reasons to say, that dialogue [with Russia] was pointless and that the response to military aggression could be military [response]. Madness!," said the French president.

He also revealed that the US had opposed his visit to Moscow to broker the ceasefire agreement on 12 August. "Despite everything, we played hand in hand with our American friends […] And frankly, looking at the world today, I don't think it needs a crisis between Europe and Russia.
It would have been irresponsible," Sarkozy said.
