lpv:translated text	"Mr President, there is one problem whose urgency is clear for millions of workers in the European Union: attacks on pensions. This problem is not limited to the workers of France, who will be on strike and holding demonstrations tomorrow: it also concerns the workers of Austria, Germany, Greece, Italy and everywhere in Europe, where governments are trying to raise the retirement age while reducing pensions. Raising the retirement age means that people who have retained their jobs to the end will die in harness, and that people no longer wanted by their employers will finish their active lives on the dole. What can the reason be for this retrograde step on the part of society? Can the European Union have become such a poor and underdeveloped region that it cannot provide for the twilight years of those worn out by work? I maintain that it is possible to provide proper pensions for all, if more taxes are imposed on employers. I should like to pledge solidarity with all those, throughout the European Union, who refuse to favour capital and who do not agree that it should be possible to possess capital at the expense of salaried employees."@en1
