At the funeral of Jean  Monnet, one of the founding fathers of the EU, Edmond Rothschild was quoted as saying "The Europe of Jean Monnet is a Europe in which there would no longer be any states but only federated regions. We shall no longer say that we are French, German or British but we shall say 'I am a European and a Bavarian or I am a European and a Scotsman'. Professor  Piskozub of Gdansk 

University recently observed "the disintegration of European states is a healing process that will lead to the integration of Europe as a whole".

In July 1999 the then President of the European Commission, Romano Prodi, confirmed the remarks of a German MEP who had said "the Parliament and the Commission are allies against the member states. Together we have to prevent the member states 

from taking back power". Nothing has Changed.
