lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I wish to discuss Paragraph 15 of Mr Pirker’s report which says, among other things, that immigrants are expected to respect the community of values – as set out in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights – and to show a willingness to integrate. How is this to be interpreted? A wave of Islamophobia is passing over Europe at present. In several EU countries, Muslims have been persecuted. The most rancorous debate I have been able to follow is taking place right now in Denmark. Quite a few politicians have made astounding statements. Mr Camre, a Member of this House, has said that all the countries of the Western world are being infiltrated by Muslims and that, while some of them are friendly enough with us, many of them are in favour of getting rid of us – in Danish that is to say, removing us. That is a prejudiced and irresponsible statement. My concern, as I address this House, is that the wording of Paragraph 15 might be in danger of creating further scope for this type of inflammatory statement. Is Europe not in danger of losing its diversity? Are we not in danger of tampering with freedom of religion and freedom of expression? Could not Paragraph 15 be understood as saying, ‘Adapt, full stop. Otherwise, gather your belongings together and go!’ I wonder if Mr Camre might respond to this."@en1
