In a speech released Wednesday and diffused on Twitter, the President of the European Parliament, Martin Schultz, defended the permanence of the UK in the EU as well as a major British commitment to Europe. “I want to see UK not only remain a member of EU but also become again a leader in the EU,“ said European Parliament President. “Yes some EU countries will integrate further but this does not mean UK will be dragged into further integration. It has never been the case,“ he added.
In one tried to calm down the Brexit British supporters, Martin Schultz said that “EU doesn´t moderate British influence, it magnifies it.“ Previously, President of the European Parliament had argued that “in today´s globalised world, together we are stronger. UK is stronger inside the EU and EU is stronger with the UK.“ Globalization, said Schultz, “does not mean nation state is dead. But 21th century demands smart coexistence between regional, national and European levels.“ And he warned that “we Europeans must work together.“
