I have heard expressions from people who are afraid we are moving too far too fast. I do not believe this to be the case. Once the criteria are met it cannot be too fast because it will mean people will live together rather than combat one another. It has been a long hard battle since the collapse of the Soviet Union. We must ensure these countries are not taken over by another regime. There are fears that there may be a Franco-German axis which will control matters. However, this will be obviated to some extent by the new constitution. Smaller countries will have rights, just as will the larger countries.
