Chapter 19 — Archipelago; where do the information platforms that are states live? The EU, Paragraph 13.2 (§19.00.13.02)

In other words, from a state point of view, an EU member state cannot ignore, refuse or challenge the existence and self-identification as such of another EU member state. It must be treated as one of their kind and taken at face value as irrefutably existent, in the very same way that citizens within a state (as well as when crossing borders) treat one another. State individualisation and unique identification are achieved in this manner through the EU, the state for states. In addition, through the acquis, understanding and meaning is common among all of them: any one EU member state citizen is to understand and treat all Things and Beings in exactly the same way as another EU member state citizen, as if they existed on the information platform that is their own state.
