French Now Back EU Constitution "in Principle"
Some 18 months after massively rejecting the EU constitution in a nationwide referendum, two-thirds of the French now say that they are in favour of the charter in principle, according to a Eurobarometer survey made public on Wednesday in Paris. In May 2005, more than 55 per cent of French voters rejected the draft EU constitution, provoking a crisis within the Union that has yet to be resolved.
However, the same survey found that 48 per cent of respondents did not trust European institutions, against only 40 per cent who said they did.
