But if Europe started producing their own shit

They'd need to re-industrialize first. Only France and maybe Germany have the capacity or the labor expertise, and they'd both need African/Eastern Europe raw materials.

And this is one of those kinds of projects that take serious organized long term commitments. Would be a significant change from how Europeans have governed over the last two decades.
