Poland threatens to reject EU treaty - by Dan Belefski

A European Union treaty meant to improve Europe's profile on the world stage was thrown into doubt Friday after Poland threatened to reject the draft agreement. "We are not happy with the current text, because elements we wanted are not in there," said a senior Polish diplomat, requesting anonymity. "We are not yet ready to approve this treaty in its current form." Next week, President Lech Kaczynski of Poland will meet with President Nicolas Sarkozy of France and Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany to discuss Warsaw's concern.
