Britain formally launches the process to leave European Union,(EU)

On Wednesday, Britain formally launches the process to leave European Union,a historic step that have divided the country and thrown into question for the future of the European projects .

Just few days after EU's 60th birthday, Britain will become the first country ever to seek divorce, striking a blow at the heart of the union forged from the ashes of the second world war.

Nine months since the shock referendum vote to leave the EU, Article 50 of the bloc's Lisbon Treaty , meaning Britain is set to leave in 2019 will be triggered by the Prime Minister, Theresa May.

"We must no longer be defined by the votes we cast in the referendum but a determination to make success of the result," May will tell the MP's later Wednesday .

"The triggering of Article 50 is the moment for the country to come together," May will say, a day after Scotland's Parliament voted in favour of holding a fresh referendum on Independence  from Britain, in a bid to hold on to EU ties.

May has already signed the Brexit letter to be delivered to EU president, Donald Tusk on Wednesday and the two leaders spoke by phone ahead of the momentous event.
