| "Frankly, Europe could do more" That was the strongly worded message from UK Prime Minister Tony Blair today. "Too long have we been dilatory. Hoping that our neighbors would take care of their own problems. Hoping that their problems remained their and not ours." Blair addressed the council with impassioned vigor. "This simply has to stop. It has to end. We are not just the 'European Union.' We are part of a greater union. A union of the world." | ![]() |

| With that message, didactic in purpose. Blair then pledged the deployment of a further 5,000 troops to help purge the undead presence in Haiti. However, none of these troops are from the stage one withdrawal from Basra, Iraq announced last week. These are fresh troops who will support the 1500 UK contingent already based in Haiti.

Following the emergency meeting, Euro Commission President José Manuel Barroso is to participate in the opening ceremony of the two-day "Citizens of the Earth" conference on global ecological governance in Paris. Those members present will focus on the present Undead plague, as well as draw up a list of the other greatest threats to our planet, particularly factors which disrupt the balance of society. It intends to set priorities, notably to strengthen international governance regarding the Necro-Mortosis virus. |

The impact of the undead virus on Europe is sporadic. Southeastern countries such as Romania, Hungry, Serbia and to the west, Serbia are all heavily infested. Spain, France, Germany, Belgium and Italy all have outbreaks, although they are considered modest and controllable. Britain has had less than 20 confirmed cases at this time.
