Australia, U.S Make Final Plea for Britain to Stay in EU
Amid Opposition in the Conservative Party, British PM David Cameron May Pass a Referendum Taking Britain out of the EU bloc
Australia's Foreign Minister, Bob Carr, has sent a letter to Britain's foreign office, stating its suggestions for inclusion in the European Union.
The foreign office has been posted the letter on its website. However, reports say that the name and signature has been left out.
Regardless, the letter highlighted that Britain has a strong say in EU policy and that it should continue to dominate discussions from an EU perspective and platform.
In a similar move, the U.S. and President Barrack Obama have voiced their concern saying that Britain needs to stay in line with the EU and its economic interests since it is a close ally of the U.S. The United States believes it will be weaker without Britain as a member of the European Union.
Australia is among the many nations that have put in their recommendations before Britain decides to pass a referendum to stay, or leave the European Union.
British Prime Minister David Cameron is facing domestic squabbling among his Conservative Party members about Britain's independence from the EU bloc of nations, ABC news reports.
In early January, financial executives from U.K. attending the World Economic Forum in Davos suggested that the U.K. should remain with the confines of the EU, following a voter referendum on continued participation in the regional body.
