EU leaders welcome Scottish referendum result

The European Union stayed neutral throughout the run-up to Scotland's independence referendum, the results of which were released on Friday. Following Scottish voters' decision to remain part of the United Kingdom, many European leaders expressed relief.

European Commission head Jose Manuel Barroso had drawn the ire of Scottish secessionist supporters after saying an independent Scotland would have difficulty joining the EU. He welcomed the result of Thursday's referendum, calling it a boost for a "united, open and stronger Europe."

Friday's outcome means Britain "is and will remain an important member of the European Union to the benefit of all citizens and member states," said European Council President Herman Van Rompuy.

European Parliament President Martin Schulz said he was "relieved" by the outcome of the vote.

"I admit, I am relieved about the result," he told Deutschlandfunk radio. "The next time I meet [British Prime Minister] David Cameron, I'll tell him that I like a United Kingdom in a united Europe."

'Good decision' for Europe

Germany's foreign Minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, called Scotland's "No" to independence "a good decision for Scotland, Britain and also for Europe."

"The election result speaks for itself: the people want a strong Scotland in a strong Britain," he said ahead of a trip to the United Nations in New York.

Spain has seen a rise in separatist sentiment in Catalonia

Spain's leadership also breathed a sigh of relief on Friday. The country is currently dealing with its own separatist sentiment in Catalonia, a movement that has drawn inspiration from Scotland.
