There are those who argue that these are sensitive and complicated issues beyond most voters’ understanding, and that more democracy would result in either populism or embarrassingly widespread abstentions. Others believe the EU cannot continue being run along the same lines as in Beijing or even Pyongyang. It’s an issue that will confront any new team chosen by the old methods.
现在有两个明确的主张。有人认为这些是敏感和复杂的问题，超出了大多数选民的理解，而且更多的民主将会要么造成民粹主义，要么是让人尴尬的大范围弃权。还有人相信欧盟无法再继续像北京或者平壤那样运作。这将会是任何通过老方法挑选出来的新团队所要面临的问题。
