The Brussels elites are not likely to admit this fact without further ado: their rhetoric still oscillates between doom-and-gloom pessimism and a kind of pro-European PR that is concerned only with how best to “sell” the Union to Europe’s citizens. But PR won’t work unless there is a vision that ultimately sells itself.
布鲁塞尔的精英们不大可能不再骚扰就承认这一事实。他们的高谈阔论依旧在极度悲观主义和某种亲欧洲的公共关系之间摇摆不定。这一亲欧洲的公关只是关心如何最好地向欧洲公民“兜售”欧盟。但是，如果没有能够兜售自己的愿景，那时不可能的。
