In Europe, it seems that the transcendence and significance of the existence of the EU, as a successful result of the integration processes of the ECSC and EEC, is not appreciated in its real dimension. The EU represents -for humanity- the greatest economic and political legacy of the 20th Century, coming from leaders such as Schuman, Adenauer, Churchill and others; who, in a visionary way, worked to unite the European family in an environment of peace, solidarity and prosperity; for this reason, they are called ＂Fathers of Europe＂ and of the ＂EU＂. The EU is a dream come true, achieved with greatness of spirit, weighing the past and looking to the future; and, thanks to its integration, Europe, as never before, has been enjoying peace for 74 years. Like all great human works, the EU also has detractors, skeptics and discontented people; this is the case of the Brexit Pact that seeks the exit of the UK from the EU, when the ideal would be to join the European family as Churchill ＂Father of the United States of Europe＂ would have wished. Moreover, the EU is the image of Europe in the world and an example of growth and joint development in a context of peace and solidarity among its peoples and with the world.
