Unable to agree on the present, EU looks to the future

The former Spanish Prime Minister, Felipe Gonzalez, has been chosen by European leaders to head a review of the long-term issues faced by the EU.

Former Latvian President, Vaira Vike-Freiberga, and Jorma Ollila, ex-chairman of mobile phone company Nokia, have been selected as vice presidents of the group.

But the celebrations were marred by leaders' inability to reach a unanimous position on the future status of Kosovo, the predominantly ethnic-Albanian province that is seeking independence from Serbia.

As EarthTimes said, "
Unable to agree on the present, EU looks to the future"
