English is one of the official working languages within the EU, so many countries in the EU have listed English as a compulsory subject. However, not all member States do this, because the EU respects the educational systems and cultural traditions of member States, so the specific situation may vary from country to country. For example, in France, English is a compulsory subject; In Germany, although English is also very important, it is not a compulsory subject in all states. Generally speaking, with the acceleration of globalization, English plays an increasingly prominent role in international communication, and more and more European countries begin to take English as a compulsory subject.
