英伦广角 英国前首相卡梅伦敦促特朗普,听我的不会错太多

Do I think the Brexit will encourage other countries to leave the European Union? Would European politicians hate direct questions that they find were very hard? Normally in the middle of the week I would have been the prime minister of those questions and I could have been pretty grueling as I’m so sure you've seen on your television set. But I'll try to give you direct answers on this one, which is I think the answer to that is “No”. 

I think we'll go see elections in France, go see elections in Poland, and we just had this referendum in Italy. And of course other countries have their concerns with the European Union, particularly, as I said, with the euro, the currency the west will work in. But I think Britain particularly never allowed, as I said in my speech, never allowed the institutions of European Union -- even those who wanted to remain certainly felt though affection for the way this organization worked. We knew we needed to be there for trade and corporation and working together, but the affection for this institution, particularly as Britain, has had such successful independent history where our own institutions simply wasn't there. So I would say that when thinking France I will guess that Marine¹ Le Pen won’t win the election. I will guess that whatever happens in Holland, there will be ultimately² majority for staying inside the European Union. As I said in my speech I think the question, a really debatable question is what happens to the future of the euro. Because I think that does count, as some countries think. We've had no growth for too long. And they will stop to question in the way the currency works and where it's working and its interests. 

People will talk and write about the Brexit referendum, about the decision, about the whole referendum, about the conduct to that referendum, about the outcome³ of that referendum. I'm sure for many years to come, I would simply say this that I believed and still believe that the fact that we haven't had a referendum on this issue for 14 years despite the fact that the European Union was changing, changing and changing, was actually beginning to poison British politics. It was certainly poisoning politics in my own party. And I think more broadly than people felt. What have been poisoned, my friend, they haven't been delivered. And people will begin to feel very frustrated⁴ about this issue. At the end, Britain has to decide. Do we want to be inside this organization but out of some of its parts, or do we want to be outside this organization, but cooperating with it in ways that honor our mutual⁵ advantage? Britain has made its choice. I believe that choice will be carried through. And yes, right, it is carried through. And yes, there will be difficulties along the way because it's a big change. But ultimately it can be made to work. And the last word I'll say is simply this: if one of the problems -- you know world today, as we're trying, as I argued in my speech, build the globalization that works for all our countries and all our people, as we do that, we have to listen to what those people want and people do want a say on these issues.
