Of course, the creators of today’s united Europe did not start by calling for national sovereignty to be abrogated. Indeed, Robert Schuman once declared that “Europe will not be built in a day, nor as part of an overall design.
当然，当今一体化的欧洲的缔造者们并没有将废除国家主权作为起点。的确，Robert Schuman曾宣称“欧洲的建立决不会是一日之功，也不会是某项总体设计的一部分。它要通过现实的成就先营造一种共同的使命感来实现。”
