This framing of 'the EU has never done multiple speed Europe' seems like a product of way too short institutional memory.
Since the 1980s, major EU integration often happened in avantgarde groups, be it the Euro, Schengen, EU Patent, EU Public Prosecutor. The real change is a different one.

The EU has always prided itself on its members all moving forward as one. That era is over.
After years of resistance, leaders finally say EU should go at different speeds
Summit in Belgian castle sees governments acknowledge Europe urgently needs to change the way it functions if it’s not going to be left behind.

I watched some of this. #PamBondi is a disgusting human being. But IMO mostly because of the way she conducts herself in this - extremely rude, constantly using fallacies and 💯 sucking up to her "daddy". I mean, this has to be one of the most bizarre and ugly hearings in US history.
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

A continent divided into many states with different languages, histories & religions - overcoming their differences and uniting into one federation.
A pipe dream for Europe? No. It's the modern reality of India. And it shows it can be done.

The subcontinent was also once split into small states speaking different languages, but the Indian union has brought great success. As the EU and India strike a trade deal, there are wider lessons.
