The rejection of the Lisbon Treaty at the Irish referendum was not because of our attitude towards Europe – it was because of the Treaty itself, says in an interview for the Bulgarian National Radio the Ambassador of Ireland to Bulgaria.

In the first part His Excellency explains why, in his opinion, the Irish citizens said “No” to the Treaty.

In the second part of the interview the Ambassador explains whether the Government and the political class as a whole in Ireland should bear the responsibility for the negative referendum.
