Well, as I said, you know the issue of Greek debt, they've grasped the principle of debt reduction.

Those who reject integration programs in the long term have as little right to stay in Germany as a hate preacher paid from abroad in a mosque.
Folks like me have to feel a little indebted to the communities that they came from.

The most difficult part of Brexit will be to figure out the trade regime between the U.K. and the rest of the E.U. because the level of trade integration between the members of the E.U. is the deepest in the world and integrates regulations that govern how products and services are produced and sold within the E.U.

For many years prior to the 1990s, European integration was embraced and supported by a large majority of citizens.

A united Europe made a repeat of the First and Second World Wars almost unthinkable.

One has to explain to people that the EU in this form is the answer both to 1945 and to the 21st century, in a dramatically altered world with new heavyweights, and that Germany benefits from the continued integration of Europe in political, economic and societal ways.
