“Great Britain never became a part of the continental space that Juncker speaks of. Membership in the European Union was not in the interests of Britain, so they voted against him, ”he said.

According to the expert, the planned UK exit from the EU “in itself will not be a tragedy.”

“The problem is the idea that remains in the center of the European Union, in the Franco-German leadership and on what the EU exists as a union. Now we are dealing with a serious crisis in the ideology of the European Union. So, regardless of the exit or not the exit of the UK, the answer must always be sought within the association. Junker is one of the best and best-trained EU leaders, but he also failed to do anything, ”concluded Bruter.

Earlier, Junker commented on Britain’s planned exit from the EU, calling it the culmination of a continental tragedy.

He also added that, in his opinion, brexit without a deal would lead to chaos.
