French referendum: analysis and consequences

[Јas]

Probably not. We already got the Nice-treaty, which basically is a constitution, only a messier one, where the power structures are more clouded and the rights of the citizen less wellprotected.

True, but I believe that Nice is applicable only until a 27th (or maybe it's 28th) member, IIRC, which means something else needs to be brought into play, though further expansion itself is now called into question in the short term anyway.
