EU referendum: Czech president says Lisbon Treaty project is over Justin Stares The Czechs have hammered another nail into the coffin of the Lisbon treaty by declaring that ratification must stop. Czech president Vaclav Klaus, who is supported by the country's largest political party, called the Irish referendum vote a "victory of freedom and reason" and said "ratification cannot continue". His view was echoed in the Czech senate. "Politicians have allowed the citizens to express their opinion only in a single EU country," Mr Klaus said.

The resounding Irish no was a "victory of freedom and reason over artificial elitist projects and European bureaucracy," he said. Premysl Sobotka, Czech senate chairman, also said there was "no sense" continuing with ratification, according to the agency.
