BREAKING NEWS ~ European Constitution signed in Rome
Bernard Hibbitts at 6:30 AM ET

[JURIST] European Union leaders have signed the new European Constitution (official website and text here), agreed upon this past June, at a lavish ceremony in Rome. The document is still subject to national ratifications and referenda. JURIST carried the webcast of the signing ceremony live on our front page this morning; we will provide recorded video as soon as it becomes available from the EU.

UPDATE: BBC News has more on the signing.
