Acknowledging that many Europeans have become wary of the proposed EU Constitution and its aim to confirm the destruction of sovereignty for their countries, billionaire George Sorts told the European Policy Center in Brussels that efforts to have it ratified by all EU nations should be "shelved" in favor of "piecemeal" implementation. The constitution, already approved by several parliaments but rejected by voters in France and The Netherlands, actually states that it "shall have primacy over the law of Member States." In other words, it points clearly to the termination of independence in each of the 25 nations already within the EU.
