Try again. My translation about EU. (from Russian to English)

After the Second World War, the six European states took the first step on the path to European Union. The achievement of this aim was not easy.
The Second World War sped up European integration, the idea of which had arose (sprung up) much earlier. Necessity of reestablish of economy that was destroyed by War, aspiration for strengthening of peace and fear (misgiving) on the occasion and rebirthing of nationalism led to rapprochement of leading countries positions.
Struggle between two principle approaches to European integration (federative and confederative) was constant. The first variant made provision for complete integration, namely, construction of supranational European federation, like about Union State of Europe. There was even expected to be introduction of single citizenship. In the second variant, sovereignty of participating countries was saved, but there was made provision for limited integration based on principles of intergovernmental agreement.
Commonly thought that beginning of European integration process was declaration of Ministry for Foreign Affairs of France Robert Schuman on 9 May 1950 which proposed the official offer of the establishment of European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC). Treaty of establishment this Community was signed by France, Federal Republic of Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Italy on 18 April 1950.
Integration of this important at that time sector of the economy has opened the way for integration with other sectors of economy, as a result, on 25 March 1957 members of the ECSC signed the Treaty of Rome to build European Economic Community (EEC) and European Atonic Energy Community (EAEC).
Several stages of European Economic Community formation took decades. There was found free trade area and abolished customs duties, quota holding and other limiting in trade between participating states in 1957-1968.
At the same time their autonomy in customs and trade policy to developing countries was saved (are kept). There was creation of customs union from 1968-1987. There was introduced common customs-tariff and created common trade policy for developing countries.
Creation of common home market in 1987-1992 has allowed of achievement of free movement of service, capital and labour force. There was a Economic and Monetary Union created to provide for replacement of national currency for single currency euro and introduction of common exchange rate policy in states of EU in 1992-2002.
