Angela Merkel: 'In This Day, States Must Be Ready To Give Up Sovereignty'

Merkel spoke at an event last week in Berlin entitled "Parliamentarianism Between Globalisation and National Sovereignty." She began by telling the crowd, "In this day, nation states must today - should today, I say - be ready to give up sovereignty. But of course in an orderly procedure." What is she saying?

Merkel appears to be embracing the idea of a global government.

The Express' Tom Nellist believes that Merkel is suggesting "Countries should be willing to give up control over their own affairs and let organisations such as the European Union have more power in a veiled swipe at Brexit, as the German Chancellor threatens to derail Britain's exit from the bloc."

Merkel argued that countries should be prepared to make concessions in an "Orderly procedure".

Mrs Merkel said that countries who think "They can solve everything on their own" are simply nationalistic and not patriotic because they "Only think about themselves."

In October, Merkel announced she would step down as chairperson of the Christian Democratic Union party in December and that she would not seek reelection as Chancellor in 2021.

Angela Merkel's approach to a problem, wrote one of her biographers, is "To sit it out".
