lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the Charter which we are preparing to vote upon today with Europeanist conviction is certainly a step forward towards the political integration of Europe, in which we firmly believe. However, as has been pointed out many times, the text does not have the legal status of a treaty. This is why we need to take further steps forward. The final objective is to establish a European Constitution, a fundamental law for a Union, which cannot stop at simply having a single currency but must become a political entity with genuinely common foreign and defence policies, an interlocutor on a par with the United States which will be able to take up the great challenge of globalisation in which the countries of the continent of Asia are also set to become protagonists in the coming years, starting with China. Therefore, Mr President, the Charter only represents the start of what is going to be a difficult, time-consuming task, but a task which, at the same time, excites enthusiasm. The text which we are going to adopt today, parts of which, being the result of a compromise – as President Poettering said – fail to satisfy us, must be instrumental in triggering a large-scale debate on the future and on the future European Constitution. The Charter of Fundamental Rights must confer binding legal status upon the rights and establish the levels of responsibility of the Union, the States and the regions, and it must bear the people's seal of approval. This is why it has to be debated and endorsed by this and the national parliaments. In the conviction that the Europe of the future must increasingly safeguard individual rights and the rights of the family and that it must prevent the return of new forms of racism and anti-Semitism, the Members of and the European People's Party will vote for the recommendation accompanying the Charter of Fundamental Rights."@en1
