Europeans are demanding an end to a failed project and starting from scratch. Such a statement on Saturday, February 1, made the chairman of the French party “National Association” Marine Le Pen.
According to her, secession from the European Union of Great Britain is the beginning of the era of independent European states. On this basis, she proposes to build a new community.
“The European Union will go down in history as a major failure,” said Le Pen. – Together with Brexit, the era of the creation of the European Alliance of Independent Nations should begin. We are calling for this. This is what most Europeans want. ”
As News Front previously reported, after numerous scandals, resignations and the political crisis, Britain nevertheless withdrew from the European Union, of which it was a member for almost half a century. This happened exactly at 23:00 local time [2:00 Moscow time].
Together with Brexit, a transitional period came into force, which until December 31 allows maintaining interaction between Britain and the EU at the same level. This time is necessary to work out new conditions for cooperation. However, new threats are already emerging here. Negotiations will be extremely difficult, and the risk that the parties will take up protectionism is very high.
The question of the distinction between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom, remains open. London has the task of ensuring its own economic independence without introducing a rigid border.
