Zusammenfassung:Problems of the European Union are discussed. The future of the European Union has never been more in doubt than at the very moment it has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for its historical accomplishments. When the heads of Europe's weakest institutions--the Commission, the Council and the Parliament--collected the prize in Oslo on December 10, 2012 they spotlighted the nub of the problem.
