Britain Propels a Two-Speed Europe

The agreement reached during the late evening of February 19 between Britain and the other 27 EU member states was aimed at preventing the country from quitting the union. The British people will now decide in a referendum on June 23 if the deal their prime minister extracted will persuade them to remain in or leave the EU.
Either way, the concessions ceded to British Prime Minister David Cameron have not been lost on populist or Euroskeptic leaders across Europe. A precedent has been set. The populists have the bit between their teeth.http://carnegieeurope.eu/strategiceurope/?fa=62839&mkt_tok=3RkMMJWWfF9wsRonvKXNZKXonjHpfsX57uQsW6Sg38431UFwdcjKPmjr1YIGRcR0aPyQAgobGp5I5FEIQ7XYTLB2t60MWA%3D%3D
