Negotiations to agree on a text
for the final declaration of Saturday's summit in the Italian
capital to mark the 60th anniversary of the Treaties of Rome
have ended successfully, sources said Tuesday. A compromise has
been struck to bring on board the Eastern European countries of
the Visegrad Group who are skeptical about the prospect of a
multi-speed European Union. Now it will be possible for all of
the 27 countries of the EU, Britain excluded, to sign the
declaration, the sources said.
