WILL THE FRENCH "NO" HAVE
CONSIQUENCES FOR US?
“The French rejection for the European Constitution brings the further
enlargement of the EU in question, and makes it more difficult for Macedonia
to get the candidate status in December of this year”, the German Euro
parliamentarian Doris Pak said for the newspaper “Dnevnik”.
“We must admit that in such circumstances it will be difficult to award
Macedonia a candidate status in December. I’m not saying that that is
impossible and that it wont happen, but the fact is that the French “NO” may
draw in other countries like Holland, The Czech Republic, Denmark and Great
Britain who will say “NO” to the constitution”, stated Pak. |
