Beyond that I wouldn't hold my breath. Just ask yourself as simple as something like "Which language would a United Europe speak".

I like the idea of open borders and a single currency with the EU. I think the whole european continent should be in the EU. It keeps everything organized. However, I want the military to under NATO and not an EU army. WW1 and WW2 was enough. Europe has a tendency to go facist. I also want the english language spread throughout europe and Germany to buy American gas instead of Russian. Make Europe easy for the tourist and the businessman.

Оf course you do, Americans want people to buy American, Russians foreigners to buy Russian, Greeks - Greek etc.



Personally I'd like to see eastern europen eu without some countries and btw today is 2nd June in my country where everyone stands still while listening to creepy sounding sirenes...to honour one revolutionary who was anti-russian, anti-ottoman and can't find reasons to think he had wanted a whole european union either:

Lol how??? Hungary has a beef with Romania, surely not Bulgaria - in fact Orban invited us to V4 last year or so and our only historical problems with them were over 1000 years ago ever since I don't know of one war or some issue where we were on separate sides. This forum has too many people speaking out of their asses for countries whose history or politics they know nothing about.
