EU needs ‘true single market’ to stay competitive, Nobel prize winner Aghion tells Euronews
3 December 2025
Europe has overregulated and punishes failure too severely, hindering the next wave of innovation, the French economist said, calling for a “true single market” in an exclusive interview on Euronews’ flagship morning show Europe Today.
Nobel Prize winner in economics Philippe Aghion has urged the European Union to lower internal barriers and establish “a true single market” in an interview on Euronews.
The French economist said a fully integrated internal market for EU goods and services will boost competition and innovation in the bloc, which he argued is lagging behind the United States and China amid rising geopolitical tensions.
“We don’t have a true single market and it is absolutely necessary,” he told Europe Today, Euronews’ flagship morning show. “Each member state has its own regulation, which they add on top of European regulations. That’s what we call gold plating.”
His comments echo recommendations from former European Central Bank president Mario Draghi, a highly influential figure in European circles, and Enrico Letta. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/12/03/eu-needs-true-single-market-to-stay-competitive-nobel-prize-winner-aghion-tells-euronewshttps://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/12/03/eu-needs-true-single-market-to-stay-competitive-nobel-prize-winner-aghion-tells-euronews
Many European leaders want Europe to change, which means that it will need to reorganize.
Europe is prophesied to reorganize and put into power a dictator.
He is called the man of sin in 2 Thessalonians 2:3. The Continuing Church of God has a sermon of related interest on its ContinuingCOG channel:
In 2 Thessalonians 2, the Apostle Paul writes about one called the man of sin, the son of perdition, the lawless one. Is this person the beast of the sea or the beast of the earth of Revelation 13? Is he the King of the North or the False Prophet? Is he the Antichrist or the papacy? Is he someone in the Church of God? What are various Catholic, Protestant, and Church of God views? Are those views based upon tradition or scripture? Are some views at least partially right? Are the radical preterists right? What about Millennialists and Hal Lindsey? What about ties to the Great Monarch of Catholic and Eastern Orthodox prophecies? What types of signs and lying wonders might accompanying him? Will he advocate the breaking of all ten of the commandments? Why will most who profess Christianity be deceived? Will most non-Philadelphians be misled? What are the biblical facts about the man of sin? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more by covering numerous scriptures and other writings.
Here is a link to the sermon: The Man of Sin will deceive most ‘Christians’.
Notice that the Bible shows that the time will come when Europe will reorganize and turn power over to a dictator called the beast below:
12 “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. (Revelation 17:12-13)
This will NOT be a democracy.
And we see that this Beast will arise with support of ten who will have been given power in a reorganization.
In the Book of Revelation, let’s look at the following verses which precede the reorganization:
8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will marvel, whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 “Here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits. 10 There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must continue a short time. 11 The beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to perdition. (Revelation 17:8-11)
Could the European Union be the sixth king that now is, but is not? Related to that, we put out the following sermon:
1:13:56
European Union & 7 Kings of Revelation 17:10
Could the European Union be involved in biblical prophecies? If so, which ones? What did the EU form from? Did the little horn of Benelux grow larger towards the south and east as Daniel prophesied? What about the seven kings of Revelation 17:10? Could they be connected to the so-called ‘Holy Roman Empire’? What is the ‘Marian’ EU flag based upon? Might the seven kings be Justinian’s Imperial Restoration, Charlemagne’s Frankish Empire, the ‘Holy Roman Empire’ of Otto the Great, the Hohenstaufen Dynasty, the Habsburg Dynasty, the European Economic Community/European Union, and the Beast of the Sea of Revelation 13? What about Napoleon or Benito Mussolini/Adolf Hitler? Did Otto von Habsburg renounce his right to the title ‘Holy Roman Emperor’ in the same year that the European Economic Union (aka the Common Market) formed in 1958? Did the EEU last until the EU was formed in 1993? What about the beast that “was, and is not” and “now is’? What about the beast that “is also the eighth, and is of the seven”? What have Roman Catholic and Protestant scholars taught? What about Church of God groups and writers including Andrew Dugger and Herbert W. Armstrong? What are some of the religious connections between the Church of Rome and Europe? What about private prophecies related to the ‘Great Monarch’? Could those looking for the Great Monarch miss the Beast and Antichrist according to Roman Catholic writer Paul Thigpen? Could the final Antichrist be an antipope? Is the the Mediterranean Sea the sea that the Beast of Revelation 13 rises from? How does the EU resemble the ‘Holy Roman Empire’? Could the EU be the sixth king of Revelation 17:10? Might the United Nations be involved and support the rise of the seventh king? Is the EU setting the stage for the seventh king? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more.
Here is a link to the sermon video: European Union & 7 Kings of Revelation 17:10.
Europe will, for a 42-month time, become a global, dictatorial power consistent with prophecies in the 13th, 17th, and 18th chapters of the Book of Revelation.
Related to change and prophecy in Europe, we put together the following sermonette video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
Europe to Expand and Reorganize?
In September 2023, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen gave her annual State of the European Union speech. It was a motivational speech to push Europeans to support bold moves for expansion, trade, and international influence. She also mentioned Europe’s Global Gateway project as well as her involvement in getting the G20 to go for the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC). Several days after her speech, a report titled Sailing on High Seas: Reforming and Enlarging the EU for the 21st Century put out by Europeans from Germany and France, called for an overhaul of the European Union so that it could manage expanding to over 30 nations. Will Europe reorganize? What does the Bible teach in Revelation 17:12-13? Will this involve more than 10 or 11 currently existing nations? Will this end up being a dictatorship? Could any of this have to do with the coming ‘King of the North’ of Daniel 11? Could a Bavarian ‘strongman’ possibly be involved in the future? Could the year 2030 be relevant? Dr. Thiel and Steve Dupuie discuss these matters and more.
Here is a link to our video: Europe to Expand and Reorganize?
Since the Donald Trump tariff announcements, the European Union is even more focused on being its own power independent of the United States.
Europe will reorganize per Revelation 17:12-13 and become a military power per Revelation 13:3-4 and Daniel 11:39-43.
It will not end up as a democracy as many there now hope.

Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations? Some claim that these passages refer to a gathering of 10 currently existing nations together, while one group teaches that this is referring to 11 nations getting together. Is that what Revelation 17:12-13 refers to? The ramifications of misunderstanding this are enormous. A related sermon is titled Ten Kings of Revelation and the Great Tribulation.

Who is the King of the North? Is there one? Do biblical and Roman Catholic prophecies for the Great Monarch point to the same leader? Should he be followed? Who will be the King of the North discussed in Daniel 11?

When do the 1335 days, 1290 days, and 1260 days (the time, times, and half a time) of Daniel 12 begin? When does the Bible show that economic collapse will affect the United States?
