2、, 2007, the 27 member states of the European Union marked the organizations 50thanniversary in Berlin with a very optimistic vision. Prodded by German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the EUmembers hope to make a new start, leaving behind the shadow that had been cast over the Union whenthe Netherlands and
3、 France rejected the European Constitution in 2005. They also hope to formulate anew Treaty for a European Constitution before elections to the European Parliament in 2009 to guide theEUs future functioning and enlargement.2007年3月25日,欧盟的27他曾景阈在德阈柏林以非常攀觐的速景厦祝了欧盟成立50遇年系己念日。在德阈S8理的促成之下,各曾员帙I希望走出2005年欧盟

Therefore,although opinions differ among members over the EUs future development and not all were entirelyhappy with the Berlin Declaration, Merkel successfully convinced the other leaders to adopt theDeclaration without signing it themselv

(Note: the Declaration was signed by Merkel along with the presidents of theEuropean Commission and the European Parliament.)德阈熬焉,欧盟各曾景阈不能因玛欧盟意法未在荷舆法阈通谩,就停滞不前不再思考欧盟下一睹段怎麽走,德阈理梅克崩女士更是强烈熬焉,欧盟停滞不前就是在退步,所以,员隹然各I国封欧盟的

Its not only that theNetherlands and France rejected the EU Constitution via referendum. Czech President Vaclav Klaus alsodeclared in public that
9、 he is not interested in the Declarations goal (of placing the EU on a renewedcommon basis) by 2009. He said he believes that only people who have already forgotten the manysetbacks that the EU faced during the past two years could harbor such an unrealistic dream. PolishPresident Lech Kaczynski als

Poland is also not willing to accept curbs to its present voting power, whichequals that of (much bigger) Germany (as would have been the case under the European Constitution).事上,欧盟的赞展似乎走到r 一他很殿重

12、awning of a new era. The success of the EUover these 50 years is there for people around the world to see. Half a century ago, after the end of WorldWar II, everyone found it equally hard to imagine that the countries of Europe would be able to form alarge family, in particular given that Germany an

This shows how deep the wounds of the Franco-German wars still are. So how could anyonehave imagined the success that the EU is today? Thanks to the effo
