translate English to French: We know that the Commission for a long time considered the option of involving them all at the start, and I would like to know what the reasons were for deciding against this, since it is clear that there are political disadvantages involved here, such as the fact that the new borders already being established within the existing Europe will have a NATO border, an EU border, and perhaps even a Schengen border superimposed on them.
Il est évident que cela entraîne également des inconvénients politiques. Songeons, par exemple, aux différents tracés de frontières au sein de l'Europe, à la frontière de l'OTAN venant se greffer sur une frontière de l'Union européenne, ou peut-être encore une frontière Schengen.
