法国和荷兰分别在日前举行的全民公决中否决了《欧盟宪法条约》，这引起了包括土耳其在内的一些国家对欧盟扩大进程的担忧。外电报道如下：Turks
joke bitterly that the only reason the European Union agreed to open
decade-long accession talks with
the overwhelmingly Muslim nation was that the EU
might not exist in 10 years. Now, with voters in France
and the Netherlands rejecting the EU constitution, the joke is looking more like
reality.
The votes show an unwillingness to accept the bloc's expansion to
include new members - in particular, a poor and culturally different
country like Turkey.
"Without a doubt, the result of these referendums is going to affect"
further expanding the 25-member EU to include countries such as Turkey,
Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos said Thursday.
Referendum表示“公民表决，公民投票，（外交使节）请示书”，多指对拟通过或已通过的法案进行公民复决投票。
据悉，荷兰否决《欧盟宪法条约》的原因之一是，他们担心“文化异类”土耳其的入盟将给荷兰带来噩梦。因为土耳其人口更多，可能在政治影响力方面超过荷兰。希腊外长莫利维亚蒂斯2日公开表示，希腊支持欧盟的扩大进程。土耳其在满足了所有条件后也应成为欧盟成员国，但这个过程可能至少需要10年的时间。
