Italian PM discusses EU constitution in Warsaw

PM Prodi, who wants to ratify the treaty with as few changes as possible, tried to convince PM Kaczyński that the decision has to be made quickly so that Europe can continue its important role in global issues. He declared that the signed constitution will allow the EU to end the current political crisis and facilitate the decision making process. In his opinion, only a strong EU is capable of running the unified energy policy demanded by Polish representatives. During a press conference Kaczyński noted that Poland wants amendments to be introduced to the constitution as well as "slower pace of negotiations". (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 7) A.K.
