  • European Union -1st of May, Uniting even more people

    European Union bigger than ever. Tomorrow we will be joined by:
    10 new countries
    74 million people
    Bringing the total number of countries in the EU to 25, with growing population of 455 million.

    Also 444bn euro of extra GDP strenghtening our position as the worlds second largest economy with 9613 billion euro GDP totaling over 18 %(USA 21.3%) of worlds gross domestic product. For more info check this out http://europa.eu.int/eday_en.htm


    The Europe will be united again, last time it was the romans by force, this time its the people by choice. http://europa.eu.int/comm/greetingscard/index_en.cfm

    Welcome!

    Just outside my office, on Gedimino Prospektas, there's a tent with dishes from every EU and tomorrow-EU country (funny enough, Turkey's there as well... perhaps someone likes kebabs too much?). I ate a Polish "Fliaki" soup, a Viennese Snitzel, Italian icecream. Loads of other good stuff to eat later at night. And 1 l jugs of beer in the German section. Wooohoo!!!

            Fine, just remember that what grows can also shrink.

            It's the referendum on the EU constitution I'm thinking of.

            I'm for it. Most Brits are not.

                I wish I had time to celebrate this properly. I guess I have to settle with smileys. So:
                Welcome, "New Europe"

                  I am strongly pro-EU, and after reading it, I know why I'm against it

                  And welcome to the new members! May your entry be as fruiful for you as it was for all of us old members

                          It is exciting.

                          What a vigorous institution the Union is.

                          Great map, by the way, laurentius.

                          The bureaucracy was hideously hard to work with as it was. So what do we do - make it even more impossibly with all these new members.

                          But to hell with such old maidish fears. It is great all these people wanted to join and great that it has been so agreed.

                          Before the Great War Poland and Czeckoslovakia had vibrant economies. I can see no reason why that cannot be so again.

                          Welcome fellow Euros!! An ever closer Union may it be!!

                            Hey brothers, welcome to the family.
                            Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
                            -Richard Dawkins
