Özet:

 

In the aftermath of the shock result of the Nice Treaty referendum in Ireland in June 20011 it  was commonly stated that the result did not represent the electorate’s rejection of European  Union  EU  enlargement. In fact both supporters and opponents of the Nice Treaty agreed  wholeheartedly on this point. The Taoiseach  Irish Prime Minister  and his Foreign Minister  assured their counterparts in the EU and the candidate states of Central and Eastern Europe   CEE  that purely domestic factors explained the result –enlargement had not been an issue.  Opponents of the Treaty, similarly, couched every public statement with an insistence that  they were in favour of enlargement. These claims were treated with some scepticism in the  CEE candidate states. Not only would the result complicate the ongoing enlargement  negotiations; it might postpone accession indefinitely.
