	Statement regarding UK presidency of the European Union
		At a moment when the Presidency of the European Union passes to the United Kingdom, the Catholic Bishops of England and Wales want to welcome the drawing together of European peoples.
		In the wake of two European and World Wars during this century we believe that the breaking down of political, economic and cultural barriers between peoples is in the spirit of the gospel of Jesus Christ where there is neither slave nor free and neither Jew nor Greek but where all are brothers and sisters.
		While the present fifteen states of the European Union form the most dynamic and united group in the continent we are profoundly glad that they are already preparing discussions to take other states and nations into the Union.
