"I am pleased with the results of the European Council summit as there was agreement to Ireland’s suggestion to come back to the rejection of the Treaty of Lisbon in Ireland at the Council’s meeting of 15 October 2008, giving ample time for the Irish Government to come up with ideas on how to rescue the Treaty.
I am especially glad of the fact that the Irish ‘no’ will not affect the scheduled ratification process in other Member States. As the Irish had their chance of rejecting the Treaty at this juncture, all the other Member States must have an opportunity to move forward, so that the Irish can return to their decision when the time is ripe. I am convinced that time will clear the haze and show the way to a reformed European Union.
Apart from the Treaty of Lisbon, the European Council also discussed the Millennium Development Goals, promising radical reforms to improve aid effectiveness, building on the full implementation of the 2005 Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness and the 2005 European Consensus on Development. I hope that the European Council will this time act in accordance with its commitments."@en1
