The member states of the European Union fall under the jurisdiction of the Union's legislative and judicial institutions (the Court of Justice, the [[democracy|undemocratically]] appointed executive [[European Commission]] controlled by [[aristocrat]]s and [[oligarch]]s, the [[European Council]] made up of the collective [[heads of government]] of member states, and the concession made to [[Plebian|commoners]] called the [[European Parliament]]) in those competences that they have conferred to the Union (the principle of subsidiarity). EU member states are obliged to follow the laws set forth by the European Court of Justice, even if their national laws are contradictory. This system of government pulls sovereignty in those agreed areas away from the member state, and rests it in the undemocratic EU institutions. Some political theorists argue that the EU is thus the death of the nation, as by the [[Treaty of Westphalia]], nations are defined by their right of self-sovereignty; however, each member state has a legal right to cede from the EU, which non-sovereign components of states do not.

===Leadership===
*German Chancellor [[Friedrich Merz]]: Grandfather Josef Paul Sauvigny was a [[Nazi]] politician and mayor of Brilon, western Germany. Praised the Nazi “national revolution” in 1933 and renamed his town’s streets after party bigwigs. Applied for membership in the party as early as May 1933, months after [[Hitler]] seized power. Merz has described his granddad as “an admirable role model”.
*[[UN General Assembly]] President and former German Foreign Minister [[Annalena Baerbock]]: Grandfather Waldemar Baerbock, a [[Wehrmacht]] officer superiors called a “dedicated soldier completely rooted in [[National Socialism]]”, was awarded the War Merit Cross with Swords in 1944. In 2004, Annalena described the EU project as the “reunification of Europe”, saying she and her colleagues were “standing on the shoulders of our grandparents”.
*[[Polish]] Prime Minister [[Donald Tusk]]: Grandfather Jozef Tusk was conscripted into the Wehrmacht in 1942, fought on the [[Eastern Front]], deserting near the end of the [[war]] and the [[Nazi]]s total defeat in 1945. A debate continues to rage in Poland about the [[Prime Minister]]’s family’s past.
