Juncker less presentable as European Commission President

To criticism of Merkel, to Italy and France, but to which must be added as the recipient also Belgium, was followed by the public reprimand of the European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, who has threatened sanctions for countries that do not do enough to meet the budget constraints in Europe. Too bad that the German Chancellor has chosen a messenger very little authoritative for its recall of severity. Juncker, in fact, on the eve of the oath for the settlement in the highest office of the EU single judge he ran into further developments of the scandal relating to the practices of tax evasion, that several multinational companies have perpetrated in the country of Luxembourg, when was the government own the future president the European Commission. In the ritual formula of the oath includes the passage that states that the exercise of the responsibilities of the members of the Committee, should be carried out independently and in the general interest of the Union. As we see it is a contradiction in terms, if this formula applies to Juncker, who has lost all reliability and is objectively weakened in his role. Not even the usual defense, based on the lack of a uniform law in the matter in the Union can improve the bad perception that the character makes plain. In the period in which he pursued the role of Prime Minister of Luxembourg, 2002 to 2010, would have been less than 340 tax agreements that have facilitated multinational companies, which have a private right of tax revenues countries with which the Grand Duchy has a covenant to 'interior of the Treaties of the EU. The economic damage to the countries that have not been able to exercise the taxation of profits made within their territories, and thus subject to their fiscal sovereignty, would amount to billions of euro. These amounts may now be used to reduce the deficit for the presence of which Merkel calls the rigor or be invested previously to revive stagnant economies, but capable with the right fiscal levers, to compete with Germany and thereby reduce the gains. This new chapter in the European question can only increase the distrust of Brussels a hostage of Berlin, which they suspect of having taken advantage of circumstances to eliminate their competitors within the industrial present. Merkel did not come from big words condemning the actions of Juncker and the reason is not only belonging to the same political group: it is not clear, in fact, as the continual references to the rigidity of the accounts, are not accompanied by reprimands as stringent on the certainty and universality of rules, factors that were completely absent in the work of government Juncker. He understands how the appointment of Luxembourg is unsustainable, especially in the future, should they occur always problematic scenarios on the economic front: what authority could have such a President of the European Commission; this would give permission to fierce debates about the legitimacy of his every act, able to block the activity of the entire European Union. The first concrete sign of rebellion against this situation could come from possible Greek elections, where the far left is ahead in the polls, with the prospect of re-discuss all the parameters of the return of debt. But also a possible election in France, where it could win a movement in the opposite situation could cause even more problems as the exit from the single currency. On the other hand the unmistakable signs of malaise towards an institution that imposes unjust top choices are underway for some time, but only the rulers and the European bureaucrats do not capture fully the situation. European citizens are not given signs that manifest the will of a turnaround, it's practical, with an increase in purchasing power, but even of a more abstract, such as the presentation of reliable and respected people in the most important and representative. The European Union is still time to withdraw to Juncker's mandate as President of the Commission, if it will not do any of the acts could be decisive for the demolition of the idea of a united Europe.
