WARSAW (SwissInfo) - Poland's president threatened on Thursday to delay talks on a new European Union treaty at a summit where EU leaders hope to finalize the charter to reform the bloc's institutions. Agreement on the treaty would end a crisis of confidence sparked by Dutch and French voters' rejection of a European constitution in 2005 and open the way for a toned-down treaty that includes a foreign policy chief with more clout and a long-term EU president. The treaty also provides for a more democratic decision-making system and more say for the European and national parliaments but avoids mention of an EU anthem or flag.  Poland, which fought against changes to the voting system at a treaty summit in June, has recently voiced greater optimism that it would win a compromise on its demands, even though other states have said they will proceed without Poland if its often-cantankerous leaders continue to drag their feet. Some leaders have indicated that Poland may be asked to leave the EU if it cannot "play ball" in the future.
