Nor does Parliament do itself any honour by concealing, contrary to the evidence, the fact that the Convention has shown itself to be dramatically incapable of raising a sustainable consensus. Nor does it do so by concealing the responsibility of the Commission and its President, who concealed their opposition at the time of the consensus, all the better to reveal it later, although they had chosen to remain silent on the Treaty of Nice.
Le Parlement ne s’honore pas non plus en dissimulant, contre l’évidence, que la Convention s’est révélée dramatiquement incapable de réunir un consensus durable et pas davantage en voilant la responsabilité de la Commission et de son président, qui ont masqué leur opposition au moment du consensus pour mieux la révéler plus tard, alors qu’ils avaient choisi de se taire sur le traité de Nice.
