"Mr President, I too thank the rapporteur, the President of the Commission and all those who have contributed to the achievement of an agreement that I see as being positive and satisfactory on two key subjects that have concerned us: the restructuring of the Spanish and Portuguese fleets and the impact of enlargement on cross-border regions. These two problems do not just affect two nations but have Europe-wide repercussions. I therefore ask the Commission once again to provide a better definition of the concept of cross-border area and region. For us socialists, a cross-border region, which should be included in the pilot project and other measures, is one which forms a border by land or by sea.
I do, however, regret certain cuts, in the case of the Balkans for example, but I am also pleased with the success achieved in MEDA recovery. In this regard, I hope the Commission will give priority to the regional dimension of the partnership provided for within this programme. I must also express my satisfaction with
learning, Socrates, Leonardo, Europol, Eurojust and the Global Help Fund. Thanks also to Mr Turchi for his report.
The projects approved at Essen must be speeded up; the individual States must be involved more, but the space for the great networks linking North and South must also be increased. Only if North and South can be brought closer together will we have a more cohesive European Union."@en1
