Recently many media perked up and remembered that not far off long-awaited British event: the referendum, which will decide their fate.
However, this event offers not only the residents of the United Kingdom and the entire European Union. And it is, indeed, surprising. Indeed, in the case of a positive result (“Yes, to withdraw from the EU”) after Britain can go to other States, and it already has a hit on the integrity of the entire European Union.
That is why now, many politicians, businessmen and influential people are trying all possible ways to dissuade the British from this idea and to influence the outcome of the referendum.
Take here, for example, American billionaire George Soros. This investor suggested that, in the case of a positive outcome of a referendum Britain expects “black Friday”. This definition Soros gave a reason. Many may remember September 16, 1992, the day have fallen sharply the pound sterling. “Black Wednesday” as it was called, then it is a shocking event.
According to the financier Soros, the same thing could happen now in 2016: “the Pound will almost certainly fall hard and fast if the referendum will end with a decision to withdraw (from the EU). I expect the collapse will be greater and deeper than the 15% drop in September 1992, when I was lucky to get a tangible benefit for investors in my hedge Fund from the Bank of England and the British government”.
Also George Soros has said that the British vote for withdrawal from the EU, will provoke the fall of the pound to the Euro standard. The majority of the country is simply poorer and the government can’t do anything to somehow help the citizens of the country.
It is obvious that an American billionaire is interested in how to save the Kingdom, therefore, the whole of the European Union. His statements about serious losses is understandable: America needs a coherent Union, which will continue to meekly take orders from overseas. As for Washington, he will continue to have an impact on European politicians to do everything possible to ensure that no country came out of the European Union.
