A French 'no' to EU constitution would mean the 'fall of Europe'

If this is not illustrative of the ridiculously false, self-importance that France has for itself, than nothing is..................

By Honor Mahony Former European Commission president Romano Prodi has warned that a French "No" to the European Constitution would mean the "fall of Europe".

In an interview with French newspaper Journal du Dimanche (24 April), Mr Prodi said that a French rejection of the document on 29 May would result in "no more Europe".

"We will go through a great period of crisis. The problem will not only be a catastrophe for France, but the fall of Europe.

"A No would be catastrophic for Europe, from a social and economic point of view, not only political. And that is the whole contradiction: everybody knows very well that there is no Europe without France, yet France does not realise the chance it has with Europe. She should reflect on that because an isolated France would be very weak", said Mr Prodi who presided over the Commission during the making of the Constitution.

Yup... without France, Europe has no chance. UH, huh.
