European Commission President made a strong appeal to Eurosceptics, including those to the British government using this crisis as a reason for separation from the EU, says "Observer". Jose Manuel Barroso urged Britain to pursue European integration.
Writing to the "Observer", Barroso made a rare intervention in British political debate, warning that he needed all member states to unite and make progress together. Barroso warned that "actions have consequences" and said that peace and prosperity will be best achieved by Europeans through the support and trust in EU institutions rather than to compartmentalize the continent politically and economically.
"We are witnesses of fundamental changes in economic and geopolitical order, and Europe needs to move forward with this or take the risk of collapse" he said.
"Our goal is not to maintain the same status but to move to something new and better," said Barroso. "I hope that when historians look back at these unprecedented times, they will understand that we have stepped back from the the edge of the fragmentation," says Barroso.
British Prime Minister has repeatedly called on eurozone leaders to take urgent action to save the euro. He refused both his country to participate in the rescue fund of the single currency and London feared losing their influence in Europe and behind the possible formation of a "two-speed Europe", explains "Reuters".
