And we are getting smaller,” Juncker said, adding that only standing together, however difficult that is, can fix the problem. “We respect and at the same time regret the UK decision, but the European Union as such is not at risk,” said Juncker, who spoke in a mixture of German, French and English during the speech. Juncker also hit out at rising nationalism and racism, referring to the recent killing of a Polish man in Britain. He announced an ambitious investment plan for African countries to stem the migration crisis, and touted a plan for free mobile roaming and wireless Internet in cities across the EU.
