Half the things you list on her "wiki CV" are an embarrassment to her.
see? item 1. sovereign countries often do want they want, not what others want ... item 2. she is the secretary of state of the US ... employed by the US, her primary focus should be on what the US needs, not on what euroweenies want or need, which is likely to be in direct opposition, stated or not ... you can substitute "neochamberlains" here for "euroweenies", if you like (not necessarily referring to you as a neo-c, on that point) ...
i.e., FMF is standing firmly on his own little plot, and arguing from his own little world-view.

THEODOTUS. Caesar: you are a stranger here, and not conversant with our laws. The kings and queens of Egypt may not marry except with their own royal blood. Ptolemy and Cleopatra are born king and consort just as they are born brother and sister.
BRITANNUS (shocked). Caesar: this is not proper.
THEODOTUS (outraged). How!
CAESAR (recovering his self-possession). Pardon him. Theodotus: he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
