Nevertheless, the rise of Euroskeptic parties, in a number of countries including Britain, France, Belgium, Poland, and the Czech Republic, has worrying implications for a summit meeting whose purpose is to take European integration a small but unmistakable step forward.

无论怎样，欧洲怀疑主义党派在英、法、比利时、波兰和捷克共和国崛起的涵义令人忧虑，对以逐步稳定地促进欧洲融合为己任的本届峰会更是如此。特别是在英国，英国独立党（UKIP）蔚为壮观的崛起只能使政府久已隐藏的欧洲怀疑主义暴露出来。
