lpv:translated text	"Mr President, in many contexts the EU is de facto sitting upon quite a lot of countries’ ratifications. I am especially pleased that Commissioner Verheugen is here today and hope that he can use his influence to ensure that we have the applicant countries, as well as other countries which want to cooperate, alongside us on this issue and that we obtain a significant number of ratifications. It is also a shame that we are forced to note that only six Member States have signed this treaty. If, however, we involve more Member States, applicant countries and cooperating States in this work, then we shall make some progress along the road. The destination is certainly a compromise, but we have to start somewhere. Secondly, I hope that we can work for those resources which are needed if the treaty is to be able to function. This, I believe, will be an important priority for us in this Chamber in the future. I also hope that, in the future too, Members of the European Parliament will have the opportunity to be involved in working parties, as we were at an earlier stage."@en1
