But what you quoted doesn't mean that Scotland is precluded from EU membership, and anyway it wasn't what I was referring to, I was referring to JC Junker in a summary of the EU in 2014, the comment you quored were made 2 years before the indyref debate and by Barroso. Quite frankly the technicalities are in uncharted water, but what is clear is that Scotland qualifies for EU membership as an independent nation because it already is in the EU......so far
