Changing Poles

The previously Eurosceptic Poles are becoming less sceptical it seems.

Since the treaty signing in December 2003, however, the issue has become much less contentious. Polish sceptics, too, have largely been won over by the economic boom sparked by EU membership in May 2004.

They have also been relieved to note that the Franco German Alliance is not the power it was.

When it is explained that France and Germany won't control everything, they change their view.

So maybe the Poles will be less useful as allies after all.
