When it comes to the oceans, add France to the list. Due to their island holdings around the globe, they have the world's largest maritime exclusive economic zone, covering 8% of the surface of the Earth.
You may have missed that he mentioned the whole EU :)
The EU is not a nation, and foreign policy is a bit of sovereignty several member states really do not want to give up. And France perhaps more than most.
