"Mr President, my wife Graziella is at last with me in Strasbourg, and when we went back to the hotel last night I read her part of the Dybkjaer report, about the two billion people in the world, in developing countries, who have never made a telephone call, never watched television, never gone to the cinema, never been in an aeroplane or a car. ‘Ah!’ she exclaimed. ‘They are the lucky ones then, they are fine without telephones, televisions and cars!’ ‘No’ I explained. ‘I cannot do what you want and vote against this report. I must vote in favour because they must progress, they must have their televisions, cinemas and telephones too’. In fact I have voted in favour. But she got angry and we argued and for the second time in my life I spent a sleepless night. But I have voted for the report and I am very happy to have done so."@en1
