translate English to French: Contrary to what we wanted to see, Nice left an image of a Europe of 'national self-interest' , instead of a Europe of 'a community of values' . An image of a Europe in which it seems that every State was looking after itself more than it was looking after Europe.
Par contre, Nice a donné l'image d'une Europe "des intérêts" au lieu de celle d'une "communauté de valeurs", l'image d'une Europe où chaque État semblait s'occuper plus de lui-même que de l'Europe.
