 WARSAW, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Polish President Lech Kaczynski
signed the European Union's reform treaty into law on Saturday,
leaving the Czech Republic as the only country still to ratify
the document.
                                
 The Lisbon Treaty is designed to streamline decision-making
and give the 27-nation bloc a long-term president and a stronger
foreign policy chief. It can only take effect when all member
states have approved it.
                                
 "Only (Czech) President Vaclav Klaus' signature is missing.
Europe eagerly awaits this to happen, Europe needs no more
delays," said Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, who
attended the signing ceremony in Poland's presidential palace.
                                
 Klaus set out his terms on Friday for signing the treaty,
demanding an exemption to protect Prague from post-war property
claims and safeguard the sovereignty of the judiciary.
                                
 Kaczynski, a eurosceptic conservative, signed the treaty at
a televised ceremony attended by the head of the European
Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, and the leader of the European
Parliament, Jerzy Buzek.
                                
 He stressed that the EU remained a union of sovereign
nations and said it must remain open to new members, including
countries in the Balkans and Georgia.
                                
 "The EU remains a union of nation states, a strict union,
and let it remain so ... Within a union of sovereign states we
will achieve increasing successes," Kaczynski said.
                                
 "We now have 27 member states. I am deeply convinced this is
not the end... The EU, a successful experiment without precedent
in human history, cannot be closed to those who wish to join ...
not only in the Balkans but also countries like Georgia."
                                
 Kaczynski had refused to sign the treaty, which Poland's
parliament approved last year, until Irish voters backed it in a
referendum. Ireland overwhelmingly approved it on Oct. 2.
                                
 Poland and Britain have already won opt-outs on the
application of some of the provisions of a Charter of
Fundamental Rights which will be given binding force when the
Lisbon Treaty is ratified.
