lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I have one comment and one question. My intention was not to accuse the Commission of rampant optimism, I was merely comparing what the Commission says with the Council of Europe report entitled "Extremist threat to democracy" and I used that as the basis for my judgment. The question, Commissioner, is this: we are calling for everyone else to do a whole host of things. But what are we doing? I do not mean programmes and money, I mean something else. You know that, because they have no country of their own to look after them, no place to call home, the Roma, of whom there are some 7 or 8 million, need to find a different mode of expression. They have set up a council, they have made a number of requests, they have asked for a pan-European forum, they have asked for special relations with institutions of the European Union, some sort of recognition because, as they have no country to recognise them and kick up a fuss about the holocaust, the horrendous holocaust which they suffered half a century ago, someone has to speak for them. We cannot speak for them. Do you intend to submit a proposal for us to recognise some sort of special representation of the Roma to the European Union?"@en1
