Can Germany change Europe?

Sabine Herre and Daniela Weingärtner point out that even under the presidency of pro-European countries like Luxembourg and Finland, the EU hasn't made much progress. They call for a radical change of course under the German presidency: "Back when the EU consisted of six, twelve and then fifteen countries, it was possible to reconcile the diverging interests of the different member states, but now, with 25, 27 and soon possibly 32 or 33 members it is becoming increasingly difficult to reach a compromise, and when compromises are reached, they're less productive. Perhaps the constitution was Europe's last good compromise. Now the time has finally come to lay the cards on the table. There's no point in continuing to pretend that everyone wants the same thing. The time has also come to allow those who want to go further to do so. For over ten years now the EU has been discussing the possibility of forming a group of particularly integration-oriented states that 'move ahead'. Europe needs an avant-garde like this now – but it may not be enough. We should at least start thinking about the possibility of shutting out those states that are continually blocking EU integration."
