Netherlands approves Lisbon Treaty
The Dutch Senate approved the Lisbon Treaty on Tuesday, making it the 21st European Union (EU) member state to complete the ratification procedure of the bloc's reform treaty. Dutch senators voted 60 to 15 in favor of the treaty, signed by leaders of the 27 EU nations last December to streamline the expanded union's decision-making process. The lower house of parliament had approved the treaty on June 5.
