(MENAFN) France's President Emmanuel Macron says those who want to further develop the European Union should not be held back by countries who oppose it.
Macron, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, said Europe would not be sufficiently ambitious with 27 countries.
"We [Europe] have to build our common policies," Macron said, referring to a 10-year plan for the bloc"s future.
"I"m not naive. We will never build something sufficiently ambitious at 27. Honestly, I"m not saying it"s impossible. It"s just that we have to first finalise the work we have at 27.
"But you need more ambition " to deliver on these critical issues."
