Anger after Poland left out of EU ambassador team

Indeed!!! The Germs are being discriminated and should revolt against the evul powers that surrounds them!!!

If it's anybody who are discriminated within the EU it's the citizens of the BeNeLux. Paying the most, yet receiving hardly anything in return and being blocked out by the big countries when it comes to making decisions. Nobody else is being discriminated more in the EU than them.

>^..^<

M-G (no wonder the EU isn't that popular anymore in BeNeLux - off to bed now)

And here is




and average Belg is 5th in ranking who pays MORE
and average Pole is 8th in ranking who takes MORE

Why do you still talk about capita? haven't i teached you anything this night?

And why do you show me a chart that is only showing the budget for may 2010?

Here is an article that maybe will make you understand it all a litte bit better !!!

Making sense of the 2010 EU budget
For 2010, Germany is expected to contribute most to the financing of the EU general budget with approximately 19.6%, followed by France (18%), Italy (13.9%), the UK (10.4%) and Spain (9.6%)

Budget debates often focus on how much countries give and how much they get back from the EU (their "net contributions"). Inevitably, "discussions" arise where different countries feel they are either paying too much or not receiving as much as they should. The latter can be a particularly vexed point as some EU policies like agriculture and regional policy benefit some countries more than others.

However, contrasting "contributions" with money a country gets back and then presenting a "net balance" is a difficult and controversial exercise. Here's why:

europarl.europa.eu/news/public/focus_page/034-31028-161-06-24-905-20080605FCS31027-09-06-2008-2008/default_p001c005_en.htm

isn't the union equal?


thus a moot point at this time


i agree, that's messed up way of thinking


so do i but maybe there aren't any diplomats that do speak those.. but, since when did anyone have to speak another language to be a good diplomat? what, there are no translators anymore?


so why let PL into EU, if poland "isn't ready".. wtf kind of logic is that?

Well together with Sweden they have initiated the Eastern Partnership, which is arguably faring better than the Mediterranean Union initiated by France.
+
They are contributing to EU security by pressuring the US to build a missile defence shield which will contribute to EU security.
+
They did play a role in helping to bring about the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine, through Kwasniewski's mediation.

So i would say that they are punching above their weight, but understandably as a net recipient of EU funds, doors will simply not open up for Poles, no matter how talented. It will take a bit of time, about 10 years.

+
The EU president, Buzek, is a Pole so they have some positions.

its ********* that what it is !

However Poland's position and so called advantages being member of EU are highly illusionary!

I-S (M-G seems of late to be very prone to talk bull)

I love the British humour this is what William Dartmouth said to Obama “I’m the man to call when you want to call Europe"


Oh, you're gonna get it for that comment :D


Hell no, whatever gave you that idea?
