Welcome to The Flemish Republic

Why the Belgian federation should be dissolved and Flanders should become an independent state.
 TFR - FFI   Frequently asked questions

What is our position on the European Union?

An independent Flanders would be a member state of the European Union. The European Union should be a confederation, whose members cooperate on economic matters, the fight against crime, defence, foreign policy, and other matters of common interest. Europe should be able to defend its territory and its interests on its own without help from the United States. We reject the creation of a European superstate as being too centralist and too bureaucratic.

The Vlaams Belang supports the integration of central and eastern European countries into EU institutions, but such integration should be planned properly and take place at a controlled pace. One should take into account the enormous socioeconomic differences between EU member states and the states that are applying for admission. In addition, the free movement of people across borders has negative aspects: criminals have more escape routes and immigration becomes more difficult to control. Europe should make it clear that it will guarantee the sovereignty of these countries if they are threatened by resurgent Russian imperialism. The European Union should be limited to the countries that belong to European civilisation. Turkey is not a European country and therefore does not belong to the European Union. This of course does not mean that the European Union should not maintain good relations with both Russia and Turkey.
