"The representatives of the European Council and of the European Commission have not concealed their concern about the disagreements which have emerged at the Intergovernmental Conference within the framework of the discussion about the new 'Constitutional Treaty' of the ΕU.
However, the disagreements are about completely secondary issues which do not change the reactionary nature of the text. They are concerned about the role of the foreign minister, without any of them contesting the militarisation of the ΕU and its cohesion with ΝΑΤΟ. No-one is concerned about the further cession of national sovereignty, but they are concerned about exactly how the power is to be redistributed. Not a word against the deification of the 'market economy' or against the strengthening of repressive mechanisms, while the European Parliament is only worried about the role reserved for it. In other words, everyone is fighting their own corner.
In all events, some concern is being expressed about the outcome of the referenda (where they are being held), which shows they are worried about increased grass-roots dissatisfaction, despite the misleading propaganda and the results of the referenda so far.
The peoples do not need a 'Euro-Constitution'; they hardly even need a European Union. They must step up their fight to defend and broaden their rights and demolish the structure being constructed by the exploiters in order to finally change society."@en1
