@VoltEuropa A really great article by #Volt #MEP Reinier van #Lanschot, very much recommended. I particularly like the footnote "Volt considers any country in which a majority of the population has democratically expressed an aspiration for EU membership to be a European state" 🙂 (no, I am not joking). This reminds one immediately of #Canada, of course. Anyway, I cannot understand the claim that membership of Canada in #EU was impossible. Article 49 says nothing about non- european countries.
