Internal protectionism in Europe would be deadly, really a disaster for European economies.

Europe should stick to an open economy, to competition and we should refuse protectionism. It will not save one single job in the long run to protect non-competitive industries.

I think overall our national security is strengthened if we are able to make the decisions that we need and the alliances that we believe in outside the current structures of the European Union.

Life for the European is a career; for the American it is a hazard.

Europe can be saved.

What is most important for Europe is economic growth and jobs, security at home and safety in the world.

If we leave the European Union it's a risk to our economy - it's a risk to pensioners, it's a risk to homeowners, it's a risk to people in work.

We can't put up a protectionist dam on our own against the neo-liberal world market either. However, we can try, together with our European partners, to maintain the social character of Europe as much as possible.

We are protecting Europe according to European rules that say borders can be crossed only in certain areas in a controlled way and after registration.

The European Union needs to reinvent its security system. It needs to break the stovepipes that prevent sharing information, enforcing borders and protecting citizens.
