The BIG putsh - Germany and France want two EU presidents
By Philip Delves Broughton in Paris
(Filed: 16/01/2003)

France and Germany sought to stamp their control on the reform of the European Union yesterday, delivering a plan for two separate presidents of Europe.

President Jacques Chirac and Chancellor Gerhard Schröder effectively decided to split the difference between their competing visions of the EU's future by proposing powerful heads for the European Commission and the Council of Ministers.

Franco-German presidential plan would be recipe for Euro-disaster
By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in Brussels
(Filed: 16/01/2003)

The late-night deal reached by France and Germany for two separate European Union presidents operating at the same time is a formula for mayhem.

If the Convention on the Future of Europe includes a version of this Franco-German "diumvirate" in the new EU constitution over coming months, as now seems likely, it will create two competing centres of power in Brussels: one at the Commission and the other at the Council of Ministers.
