BRUSSELS, Oct 29 (Reuters) - Czech President Vaclav Klaus is satisfied with a declaration by European Union leaders intended to pave the way to ratification of the bloc's Lisbon treaty, Czech Prime Minister Jan Fischer said on Thursday.

"Vaclav Klaus was content with the text. He has been informed about all modifications ... and does not have a problem with it," Fischer told reporters after EU leaders agreed on the text at a summit.

"I consider the result to be good," said Jiri Wiegl, a top aide to Klaus.
