After the second world war, Germany got split into two parts -- West Germany which had the support of the western countries like US,UK etc. and East Germany which had the support of Stalin's Russia ( then USSR ). This happened just within months of Hitler's death and the end of W W 2. And then in 1990 the Germanies got united with the falling down of the Berlin wall !! During these 45 years from 1945 to 1990, the people inside these two countries felt betrayed by their own leaders ( and also other world leaders ), who infact were responsible for dividing a single nation into two.

The british Prime Minister Mr. David Cameron, has asked his fellow citizens to vote against the proposal asking Britain to leave the European Union,in the forthcoming referendum on June 23rd.  According to Cameron, Britain is more financially and regionally secured, if it remains inside the EU - financially because it can benefit from a common currency ( i.e. the Euro ) as well as conduct business with other 27 nations inside the European Union easily and with no regional boundaries ( according to Schangen agreement ). Free trade and commerce will continue to develop under such circumstances.  However, Mr.Boris Johnson, former mayor of London, is of quite an opposite opinion. According to him, a Brexit, i.e. Britain's exit from the European Union is the only option which can help Britain and the britishers. He argues, in quite a controversial manner, comparing the concept of having a huge league of nations like the European Union, being similar to the idea conceived by Ad

Immediately after the results of Indiana primary, he said this and added that this he has decided because it wouldnot be possible for him to acquire the required number of delegates, necessary for a nomination from the Republican party.  This came a huge shock for his supporters and a good news for those of Trump.
