I don't even think that people understand how much language is transformative to the human condition in all ways. We should have all been learning 3-4 languages from our early days on.
Mandatory English, Spanish and Russian/Mandarin in all EU schools could make so much difference. Parents and VOD services would optimize the rest for the ego boost gained from smart offspring.
I kind of view all EU as domestic market. Also Russian is not spoken solely in Russia. I just didnt want to put Mandarin alone and skip that huge piece of land between them and the EU.
Wait, were there a timeframe when French wasnt the main language of the EU?
You only need to look at the political discussion about Ukraine to understand that filtering out all languages but one will change the view entirely.

Interesting, you skipped German and French for Spanish and Russian.
I only think about global trade and the biggest markets, sorry.
Really, Russia is a bigger Market than Germany/Austria/Swiss, not so sure about that.
Did you know, that French was the main language of the European Union until the brits entered and funny enough, they left 2 years ago again :D
