Opinion poll shows that the public back Belka and the EU Constitution
An opinion poll shows that the public surprisingly well evaluate the results that Prime Minister Marek Belka's secured at the EU summit in Brussels over the weekend. Roughly 40% agreed with the decision to accept the EU Constitution, while 43% disagree with the opposition who claim that parts of the Constitution are against the national interest. With a referendum to be held in Poland concerning the EU Constitution, the results of the Rzeczpospolita poll reveals that a majority is in favor of the document. The big "if" is that every fifth Pole is still undecided about his opinion on the issue. (Rzeczpospolita, pp. A1, A3) M.M.
