Verheugen said in Brussels that there could be no special rules for Ireland. He said that if the rest of EU members accepted the Lisbon Treaty, one single country could not remain outside of it. Meanwhile, Luxembourg's Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker warned against putting the Irish government under pressure.
