Speech delivered by Winston Churchill in 1946 in the auditorium (Aula) of the University of Zurich.

Sir Winston Churchill gives his opinion on the future of Europe promoting federation and giving United States of Europe as an example.

One thing has changed widly since this speech. In 1958 export of UK was distributed like this:
EEC - 13%
Rest of Europe - 13%
The Commonwealth - 52%

Today UK exports are distributed like this:
The rest part of EU - 56%
USA - 14.6%
The Commonwealth - 4%

The anomalous influence in the world of tiny European countries (such as UK or France) was dictated by historical events and our higher advance in time. We have no more this advantage in a global world. The only way to defend our interests is through our own - European - family.
