Last week's ruling by the German Constitutional Court,
that ratification of the Lisbon Treaty by the German parliament is unconstitutional, | coupled with demands by one conservative party for changes to the constitution,
to prevent such goings-on in the future, | may not only jeopardize Berlin's schedule for the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty. The Karlsruhe ruling also threatens future steps toward European integration.
Those who want a United States of Europe, American style, to counterweight America, must be livid. Details and background at link. |
