Uhm sorry no. Read the links. It was rejected by the majority of the voters both in France and the Netherlands.
What happened afterwards in France was to change it slightly and make it pass by parliamentary vote instead.
About the accuracy of the term "the population", I simply mean it "by the local rules for a nation wide referendum".
