Responding to the comments, a spokesman for the pro-independence organization Yes-Scotland told RIA Novosti “it is encouraging, but not surprising, that such an internationally-renowned political thinker such as professor Chomsky can see the benefits of Scottish independence.””Professor Chomsky, of course, is not a nationalist and increasing numbers of people in Scotland, particularly Labour supporters and those who have no party political affiliation at all, also see the logic of putting Scotland’s future in Scotland’s hands,” the spokesman added.A spokesman for the pro-UK Better Together campaign told RIA Novosti “in Scotland, when people study the issues in detail they conclude that we are stronger and better together as part of the UK.”Professor Chomsky said he hoped to see greater devolution of power throughout Europe.”No one wants to restore the Ottoman Empire, obviously, but in some respects it had the right idea: let people manage their own affairs, with cooperative federal arrangements, and as few barriers as possible,” he told RIA Novosti.
