"The European process needs to continue. The vote of the Irish citizens for the rejection of the Lisbon Treaty must be respected. At the same time, we need to take into consideration the larger interests of all the European Union citizens in making the European structure more efficient, as well as in continuing the process of the Union enlargement. The Irish citizens don’t have only rights, but they also have obligations in the EU. They need to be aware of the consequences they undertake by rejecting the Lisbon Treaty. The Irish citizens will have to decide by a new referendum whether they leave the European Union or they stay in the EU based on the Lisbon Treaty. The stoppage of the European process by invoking the “intact sovereignty” of the Irish actually means the stoppage of the natural aspirations of the citizens from Croatia, the Republic of Moldova etc. to approach the EU. Just like Ireland and the Irish political representatives have the right to fight for the aspirations of their citizens, Romania is entitled to fight for the accession of the Republic of Moldova to the European Union."@en1
