<< The EU is governed primarily by three institutions: the Council, the European Commission and the European Parliament. >>
Council of the European Union, nem szimplán csak "Council". Konzervek, bazz. Gondolom nem tudták eldönteni hogy Council of the EU, European Council, vagy pedig Council of Europe, aztán megegyeztek egy egyszerű "council"-ban.
<< [...] a French socialist who passionately favoured European integration. A personal enemy of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, he was famously attacked by the conservative British tabloid newspaper The Sun with the slogan "Up yours, Delors". >>
Kúrva fontos politikai részlet.
<< National parties sit in broad Europe-wide groupings: for example, most members of left-wing parties sit together as the "Party of European Socialists". No party grouping currently has an overall majority, but the main conservative grouping (the European People's Party) currently has the largest number of seats (277). >>
Nem European People's Party, hanem European People's Party - European Democrats (EPP-ED). (És csak én érzem gyerekesnek a nyelvezetet ? Sit together ? Grouping ?)
<< Similar to Federal Law trumping State Law in United States politics, the EU member states are obligated to follow the laws set forth by the European Court of Justice. This system of government takes sovereignty from the nation, and rests it in the EU court of Justice. Some political theorists argue that the EU is thus the death of the Nation. >>
Ez kúúúrva jó! Az USÁhoz hasonlítja az EU szerkezetét, majd egyszerűen kijelenti hogy ez a nemzet halála. LOL.
<< By the rules of The Treaty of Westphalia, nations are defined by their rite of Self-Sovereignty. >>
Kár hogy egy 350 éve írt dokumentumot már nem lehet alkalmazni ebben a fene nagy globalizációban.
Az meg vicces hogy pont az USA szegte meg legtöbbször egyéb országok szuverenitását. (Meg ezen elmélet szerint Afganisztán és Irak már nem is állam többé...)
<< Such people are known in British English as "Eurosceptics" >>
"in British English". LOL.
<< They also, however, include less well-respected politicians belonging to far right or nationalist parties, such as France's Jean-Marie Le Pen. >>
"less well-respected" - elég kedves fogalmazás.
<< Typically a country that is considered will have to make some economic or social changes to bring it in line with other member states. >>
De gyerekes fogalmazás bazz. Mondjuk "must reform its institutions to meet membership criteria" jobb lenne.
Persze a European Central Bank-ot és a European Court of Auditors-ot teljesen kifelejtették az EU intézményei közül... Minek is említeni őket ?
