BOMBSHELL: GERMAN PRESIDENT STOPS EU RATIFICATION *PIC*
While Schroeder - the Chancellor of Germany - plays EU statesman in Brussels, the constitutional President of Germany Horst Koehler just announced he will suspend his signing off on the EU treaty until the constitutional court has heard a case from an opposition parliamentarian. It is now asked to verify in a massive law suit if the EU treaty is compatible with the German constitution. Should the court decide in favor of the opposition parliamentarian, then all bets for the EU are off, because then many nations will start to look into things very carefully.
German president halts EU backing
President Horst Koehler must sign the bill to make it law
The German president has said he will wait for a court ruling before completing his country's ratification of the European constitution.
The German upper and lower houses of parliament both backed the treaty, leaving President Horst Koehler to sign it into law.
But the German constitutional court is still to rule on an MP's complaint against parliament's approval.
The president's signature is required for German ratification to take effect.
The treaty was given overwhelming support in the upper house of parliament, the Bundesrat, on 27 May, two days before the French referendum on the text.
But France, and subsequently the Netherlands, both voted "No", plunging the EU into turmoil.
Crisis fear
German conservative MP Peter Gauweiler wants the Federal Constitutional Court to decide whether the charter conforms to Germany's own constitution.
Köhler unterschreibt Verfassungsgesetz nicht -
Gauweiler beglückt

Bundespräsident Horst Köhler will mit seiner Unterschrift unter die von Deutschland ratifizierte EU-Verfassung warten, bis das Bundesverfassungsgericht über die Klage des CSU-Politikers Peter Gauweiler entscheiden hat.
