EU Foreign Minister
Tiscali Europe - Home: “An EU Foreign Minister
‘Lowest common denominator’ or ‘all to play for’”
Many feel that the most innovative and radical part of the European Constitutional Treaty is the creation of the position of Foreign Minister of Europe, a position that has already been assigned to Javier Solana, the current High Representative of the EU for the Common Foreign and Security Policy. However, many feel that the creation of the post has begged the question of whether or not a European foreign policy even exists.
Just about everyone seemed to be in favour of the creation of the post but it is still not clear what exactly the post will entail. Will he be a traditional Foreign Minister with a brief and government policy to promote? Or will he be a cajoler, a facilitator and a listener, treading delicately so as not to upset the French, British and German Foreign Secretaries?
