Waters, Timothy W. (2006). «Remembering Sudetenland: On the Legal Construction of Ethnic Cleansing». Virginia Journal of International Law (47(1)): 63–146. «In 1997, the EU entered accession negotiations with the Czech Republic. The Sudeten question, although peripheral to the process, proved a persistent and troubling issue, especially in relations with Germany and Austria. … in the late 1990s, the level of diplomatic dispute between Austria and the Czech Republic over the expulsions was even more heated-and after its own admission to the EU, Austria had the right to veto accession. However, although Austrian officials and politicians frequently expressed dissatisfaction with the Czech Republic's position, 129 Austria never declared that failure to repudiate the Decrees or to otherwise undertake restitution constituted a violation of any international or EU norm or a reason to oppose accession. Austria approved Czech accession without requiring any restitution for Sudeten claims.»
