Yet another divide lies between the United Kingdom and the rest of the EU. Given the UK’s role, alongside France, as the key force in European defense and a significant authority in world affairs, particularly with regard to climate- and development-related issues, the prospect of a genuine split should be a source of serious concern for the EU.
但还有另一个分裂，存在于英国和欧盟剩余部分之间。英国与法国一起构成了欧洲防务的主力和全球事务重要权威（特别是气候和发展相关问题），因此这一分裂趋势理应成为欧盟严重关注的问题。
