Quote by William Hague

The EU is not a country and it's not going to become a country, in my view, now or ever in the future. It is a group of countries working together.

The EU is not a country and it's not going to become a count

Summary

This quote emphasizes the clear distinction between the European Union (EU) and a nation-state. It suggests that the EU should not be seen as a fully-fledged country and dismisses any prospects of it evolving into one. Instead, it asserts that the EU is an association of cooperating countries. By highlighting this distinction, the quote challenges any notions that the EU's purpose ultimately extends beyond collaboration between its member states.
