"Mr President, the word ‘federalism’ risks staying devoid of meaning if we do not make a basic choice. Yes, we do have to draft a European constitution to avoid ending up with a simple free exchange area after enlargement. To do that, however, we really must understand subsidiarity, which remains the most important principle of federalism. I will give an example.
Under the Italian constitution we have a special regime of autonomy. On the way towards a necessary European constitution is it not important to involve the regional political level in some way, especially when it represents a linguistic minority? I ask this question knowing full well that the answer is not easy, but it is nevertheless vital for the democratic future of Europe."@en1
