A chance for Europe to face the New Truth (International Herald Tribune, By John Vinocur, Published: June 23, 2008)

[…] Hubert Védrine, the former French foreign minister, got it right: "Everybody knows that if there were referendums everywhere, the noes would have won in several countries. The disagreement between the elites and the populations is flagrant." (Védrine spoke before a poll last weekend showed France, had it voted, joining Ireland’s rejection front.)  […] What Europe could do, since it describes itself as the master of soft power, is stop trying to pile new, hard architecture on its soft mass. That means forgetting about becoming a mammoth lumbering with the cast iron paraphernalia of an all-purpose state. It could do things differently. And more simply. For example: concentrate its skills and energies on a single project. Deal with energy supply as a quasi-exclusive community priority for an unlimited period.

[…] So, I am certain of this: even if the Eurocrats, by sleight, blackmail and gerrymander, manage to yoke together the disparate, brawling menagerie from the Vistula to the Corrib, and Gibraltar to the Barents Sea, they’ll never plough a straight furrow. Never. Just watch. (Independent.ie, ‘No’ vote gives us all a chance to take fresh look at Europe, By Kevin Myers, Tuesday June 17 2008)
