"Mr President, I would also like to express my gratitude for the countless expressions of friendship and solidarity I have received from practically every part of the world, from all the institutions – and I note that the Vice-President of the Commission, Mrs de Palacio, is here – and from many many Members of this House, from all the political groups without exception, following the delivery of the package from Bologna.
Mr President, I believe that the institutions must not be intimidated by these acts and that, today more than ever, we must continue to work in favour of a united Europe – taking account of the priorities which the Irish Presidency will present to us the day after tomorrow – in favour of a Constitution for Europe; Europe wants and needs a Constitution, Mr President, a Constitution which must include all of us.
Mr President, I believe it is important that, in view of the threat of terrorism, which affects us all equally – and I believe it is a good time to recognise and express, as a Spaniard, my gratitude for the constant encouragement we have received from the European Parliament in our fight against the terrorist group ETA – we have to continue united, and the response must also be from us all equally. And as Mr Titley said, that response must be calm and serene, and not hysterical, mobilising all our efforts and our determination so that freedom – and I would like to point out, Mr President, that this is the European citizens’ House of freedom – is not savagely, and with impunity, violated by barbarity, which is the only thing the terrorist movements represent."@en1
