Poland flexing its muscles in EU

June 13, 2007

Polish President Lech Kaczynski is holding talks with a number of EU leaders this week over his objections to a simplified EU constitution, which is due to be discussed at an EU summit on June 21 and 22. Poland has threatened to veto the proposals for the scaled-down treaty unless concerns over its voting rights within the bloc are addressed, something Germany refuses. Voiced report.
