(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) Prime Minister David Cameron faced opposition to his bid for Britain to opt out of a duty to forge an 'ever closer union' between EU nations on Thursday, ahead of talks with European
Parliament President Martin Schulz and Irish Prime Minister Enda
Kenny, dpa reported.
Schulz said there was little chance of Cameron succeeding in changing
the requirement under the Lisbon Treaty to build ever closer ties,
citing a 'more or less unanimous' view among leaders of other EU
nations.
'To change it you need a treaty change,' he told the Guardian ahead
of the talks. 'I see not so much chance for treaty change.'
