peer agreement (net): +1to wish for Explanation: This is a standard expression to be found in any dictionary. 'Appeler qch de ses voeux' means to wish for something'. The thing being wished for is obviously given by the context. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-02-12 20:28:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, can sometimes be translated as 'to call for' or 'to hope for'. I was just giving the general idea. I don't know the exact role of the 'Comité des Régions' in this case. |
