The membership of both organisations is virtually one and the same. An EU force could never practically act without NATO approval and vice versa.
There’s many arguments against “ever closer union” but EU Member States choosing to pool common resource, training and military assets can only be to the benefit of NATO operations.
There’s not a single territory the EU has a border with it can realistically invade. It’d only enhance their ability to contribute to NATO, something that President Trump has openly called upon everyone else to do.
However I respect your right to a different opinion on the matter, and I’m sure we’d both agree it’s further diverging from the main topic.
