lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the results of the preparation of the Johannesburg Conference would not perhaps have been so poor – and the outlook for the Conference so pessimistic – if the parties had been more willing, and above all able, to see beyond their own partial short-term interests and to realise that we are at an extremely important turning point, not only in terms of achieving sustainable development – although this alone would deserve all our efforts – but also of achieving security and governability on a world scale. In the ten years between Rio and Johannesburg, there has been a fundamental change towards a globalised society in which social and economic inequalities seem closely linked to environmental problems and governability in all countries. The eradication of poverty is becoming a priority objective in the world because it is the only way we can guarantee security, governance and equality in a globalised world. After almost thirty years of policies aimed at reconciling economic development, the environment and social well-being, I believe that we have a pretty good knowledge of the range of instruments and measures to be applied in order to achieved balanced growth in a globalised world: transparency and openness of the markets, management of knowledge and innovation, transfer of technologies, the efficiency of our processes and products, the acceptance and application of social and environmental responsibility in all sectors; these are some of the most important measures. We need to approach Johannesburg by strengthening the coalition between government, civil society and the production sector, in order to jointly deal with the main challenges of global sustainability and equality. The European Union has offered clear signs of its desire to lead this process. I hope that in Johannesburg we will be able – and I include the delegation from the European Parliament here – to defend brave, generous and worthy positions which will show us to be what we aspire to be: leaders in the new world order."@en1
