Poland is blocking the revival of the European Constitution

Jan Cienski in Warsaw and Bertrand Benoit in Berlin analyse Poland's criticism of EU voting strengths, which looms large over next week's summit. "[In Germany] many believe that Poland has replaced the UK as the main obstacle to putting the constitution back on track. ... Poland insists that the constitution's double majority voting system for the EU Council of Ministers, under which laws would be passed if supported by at least 55 % of the EU's 27 member states and covering at least 65 % of its population, is unfair and biased towards its largest members. ... Poland insists that its proposal, under which each country would have as many votes as the square root of its population, ... is fairer to small and medium-sized countries. ... the German argument is that re-weighting the voting system is only one aspect of broader compromise extending to the European Parliament ... and the extension of qualified majority voting to new policy areas."

Will Russia divide the EU?

Academics Bertrand Benoit and Richard Milne note that an argument about Russia between the Lithuanian ambassador and Germany's ambassador at a recent meeting in Brussels "called into question the ability of Germany, current holder of the EU presidency, to remain neutral in a whole range of disputes between Russia and its former Soviet-era satellites in eastern Europe. ... German business needs good relationships with a stable, if authoritarian, Russia and it wields considerable influence in Berlin. ... By sticking to its exclusive relationship with Moscow, however, some EU experts argue that Berlin is contributing to the division of Europe. Besides, they argue, Germany's interest - to persuade an increasingly affluent and assertive Russia to remain a reliable energy supplier and partner - would be better served by building a truly European policy towards Moscow."
