lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I think anyone reading page 6 of the Minutes might get the wrong impression from the juxtaposition of my speech and Mr Vander Taelen’s. I want to stress two points. First, Mr Vander Taelen may disapprove of my position on the European Union, but it can in no way justify the wholly unfounded personal attacks against me by the Chairman of the Canadian parliamentary delegation. Anyway, Mr Vander Taelen admitted he did not personally witness the incident. Secondly, I simply cannot understand how Mr Vander Taelen could have got the impression I was against enlargement. I have never said that. On the contrary, I have stated time and again in this House that enlargement is an historic necessity. I have just pointed out that the institutions in their present form undoubtedly constitute an obstacle to enlargement, but that is an entirely different issue. Of course I am in favour of the enlargement of the European Union to the East."@en1
