This is where we fundamentally disagree.
I want an european superstate/nation. With its own military, a democratic political system. A cohesive foreign policy etc... A real unified europe politically and economically.
Of course there will still be local differences, different languages etc...
But we share in good and bad a common history. We don't have to abandon our nation states to have a political europe. We give away some of your prerogatives as nation states, but we gain more as a unit.
If the europe you want is only an economic zone then its already failed.
60 years wasted for nothing.
