Polish President Lech Kaczynski met with his Portuguese counterpart on Tuesday to discuss Georgia, Ukraine and the European Union's Lisbon Treaty, reported dpa. Kaczynski said he was optimistic, along with Anibal Cavaco Silva, about the Lisbon Treaty's future, but stressed that Ireland must solve "its problem" on its own. Kaczynski added that his signature wasn't hindering the treaty's ratification, but it's the Irish no vote in a June referendum that's a hindrance. Kaczynski also reaffirmed he was happy with the conclusions reached at Monday's EU summit on Georgia. "I think either Nicolas Sarkozy's success in Moscow awaits us," Kaczynski said, "or the necessity to act further." Silva met with Kaczynski in Warsaw and was slated to meet later with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
