a big mistake

"People like Hans-Gert Poettering, Jo Leinen, Josep Borell or Elmar Brok do not want to listen to critical arguments. They carelessly reject all the reservations that do not correspond with their ideas. They criticise these objections and parody them beforehand. And this is experienced by the people like myself who had to live behind the Iron Curtain, in the communist times, for long decades, and we therefore know that we should not ignore or underestimate this,"

The words of Czech President Vaclav Klaus in responce to the EU reform treaty

"I see this as a big mistake but the bigger mistake is that they did not tell this to Europeans clearly and distinctly. They should have said loudly that they have practically approved the rejected European constitution,"
