<item><title>EU not out of the woods | Editorial</title><link>http://www.presseurop.eu/en/content/editorial/1112671-eu-not-out-woods</link><description><![CDATA[&quot;With the exception of the creation of eurobonds, we got everything we were expecting&quot;. If the banker quoted by Le Monde  is to believed, the agreement reached on the night of 26-27 October on  the devaluation of Greek debt, the recapitalisation of the banks, and  the reinforcement of the European Financial Stability Facility will be  enough to resolve the Eurozone crisis. 
However,  the experience of previous agreements hammered out after difficult  negotiations should encourage us to hedge our bets. Markets move in  mysterious ways, and there is a risk that this latest summit will have  been for nothing. With this in mind, it is still too early to draw any  conclusions as to its final outcome. 
However,  in a context where the response of European leaders was informed by the  fact that the fate of the EU was at stake, a quick look at the European  political landscape in the wake of the October 23 and 26 summits should be sufficient to tell us  that the political crisis, which was obscured by the financial crisis,  is only beginning. 
As  many commentators have noted, we are now embarked on a path towards the  greater integration of the Eurozone, and this is a move which will  generate a lot of uncertainty.
The  highly publicised discussions between Angela Merkel and Nicolas Sarkozy  have demonstrated that the Paris-Berlin axis is once again the main  motor of Europe. But we are no longer in a Europe with just six or 12  member states, and this motor will have less horsepower in the wake of  successive EU enlargements and the creation of powerful internal  organisations like the European Central Bank. 
The  spat between Nicolas Sarkozy and David Cameron, and the Commons debate  on a UK referendum to decide on Britain&rsquo;s membership of the EU are  evidence that London is also seeking to redefine its role in what is now  a shifting architecture. &quot;Merkozy&quot; will be uneager to offer concessions  to the British, who have exerted a long-standing influence on the  liberal development of the European Commission, without assuming all the  political responsibilities that this would imply. 
However,  the UK is not the only country to wonder about its role in Europe. The  nine other EU members which are not in the euro, and in particular  Poland and Sweden, are already grumbling about the inception of what  will become a two-speed Europe. The Schengen Area and initiatives for  European defence have already set a precedent for EU initiatives with a  variable geometry. But they do not involve such a developed level of  governance as the one implied by the control of national budgets and the  appointment of a European minister of finance. 
And  here, we are touching on the main point about the instability to come:  the economic government that Berlin and Paris are aiming to establish,  with support from the Netherlands and Finland, will affect the  sovereignty of states and raise the question of democratic control  &ndash;  an  issue raised by sociologist J&uuml;rgen Habermas in a forthcoming essay from  which Presseurop has published a number of extracts.
From  this point of view, the EU has now embarked on a dangerous transition,  in which its leaders will have to demonstrate their political  effectiveness and at the same time keep an eye on the practicalities of  democracy: especially when you consider that the ratification process  for the 21 July agreement has already shown that national parliaments  are very slow when they are required to respond to financial markets.&nbsp; 
Worse still, as Timothy Garton Ash pointed out this week  in his analysis of the debates in the UK and German parliaments,  national democracies are expressing conflicting demands that have caused  the EU to stall.&nbsp; 
But  given that no one is ready to establish a European democracy based on a  parliament that is elected from transnational lists which take up a  position on transnational debates, decisions will continue to be taken  by political leaders who meet behind closed doors, and they will  continue to be approved by parliaments that have been first and foremost  elected to deal with national issues. The euro may be saved, &nbsp;but the  EU is still not out of the woods.
