my answer? perhaps it sounded kind of like a vague fortune teller.
it's not an answer to anything, just thinking out loud.

Norway, Iceland and Switzerland should join EU.

I think we should keep those eastern european states out, at least little later. (they need more time to develop economy, infrastucture and quality of life and root out organitsed crime.)
Belarus and Ukraina should join Russia.

Turkey and Israel should not join EU.

Tired of ads?

I read somewhere about a poll they made in Belarus. Two of the questions were about Belarus joining either Russia or EU. On both questions roughly 60% said they would vote yes. Something tells me they are not very satisified with their current situation

Indeed. And I'm against the leaders of those countries for that very reason (besides many other reasons for Berlusconi...). It's a pity there already are many pro-American EU members and future-members. No need to increase that amount if it can be prevented.

Suffering from ads?

A better question is which country will leave the EU first?

Denmark, Sweden or the UK are front runners.

The picture comes from a movement in the 19th century called the Scandinavism. The idea was to unify the Scandinavian countries, mainly to be able to make a big army that could keep the pesky Germans away

It failed. We conquered Denmark in 1864 and freed Schleswig and Holstein (op ewig ungedeelt) from Danish tyranny.

Hey, what is FYROM you greekolliticaly correct bastard?

Anyway I am pleasantly surprised by the results of this poll. It would seem that voters are much more open than the average EU citizen.

Some time ago I've read a EU wide opinion poll about the same topic - "Which country would you like to see join the union?"

The average for ex communist south and east european countries was quite low, and I remember Croatia and Bulgaria scoring somewhere around 30% of support.

Yep, it's a propaganda poster from the war between Denmark and Prussia in 1864. IIRC Denmark lost alot of land, but was given back most of it after WW1.

Azazel, I don't think they're supposed to be anyone special.

I believe Norway has stayed out of the EU because joining would mean they would become a net giver of tax money instead of a net reciever of tax money. Those blond haired oil barons figure they can get 90% of the benifits while paying 10% of the costs.

The largest vote is for Norway?? Hrmph...

well, i guess I would say that it wouldn't surprise me if Russia eventually joined, though I seriously doubt the inclusion of Israel, or the former Soviet States south of Russia
