"Mr President, frequent use was made of the word solidarity at the recent European Council meeting devoted mainly to climate change and a common energy policy for the Union. This is a positive development. The Union has finally realised that in the case of matters of such importance, success will only be achieved if we take joint action and stand together in solidarity when dealing with external partners. There is some concern, however, as to whether this oral solidarity is not simply the result of the wheeling and dealing political leaders are attempting to engage in behind their citizens’ backs. The outcome of these machinations was to be an understanding on the Constitutional Treaty. Heads of State or Government, the German Presidency and the European Commission cannot disregard the sovereign will of the people of France and the Netherlands, who rejected the Constitutional Treaty. They must also take into account the serious reservations about the document expressed in other Member States."@en1
