I have a certain fondness for the idea of visegrad admitting austria and becoming a strong counter-EU but oh man oh man oh manhttps://factsdomatter.co.uk/2018/02/15/reintroducing-liberty/ …

and the role of central/eastern europe in that conflict has been a constant since at least the partitions of poland-lithuania to the present day
-
events like molotov-ribbentrop and warsaw pact made this dynamic explicit but the dynamic is inherent in russia, not the soviet union, and did not vanish with its dissolution
-
western europe remains free from russian hegemony by virtue of its status as an american protectorate, not because it can maintain independence by force of arms anymore
-
so it needs to become a great power in its own right if it is to survive american decline, the russians are not as laissez faire with their vassal states
-
EU federalization could accomplish this but seems impossible, strong intermarium in symbiosis with the west more realistic avenue
