lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I will have no difficulty in voting in favour of Mr Brok’s report and the ten reports that make up this general report. By doing this, I will be happy to contribute, in a modest but heartfelt way, to the arrival of the ten new members of the European Union. The same applies to Mr Van Orden’s report on Bulgaria. It is true that the rapporteur’s comments may sometimes appear very favourable, or even too much so given the situation in Bulgaria. On the whole, however, the conclusion of this report seems to me to be the right one. The impression given by Baroness Nicholson’s report on Romania is different; in fact the contrast is striking. There is a feeling of unease when you see the indulgence of the report on Bulgaria and the severity of the one on Romania, when the two countries have a great deal in common. Baroness Nicholson did a significant amount of work over several months to monitor the case of Romania, and I welcome her efforts. However, the close attention that she pays to particularly painful problems, such as adoptions, led her to make very harsh judgments, so harsh, in fact, that the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Human Rights, Common Security and Defence Policy has already significantly amended the original text, which I welcome. Other amendments that we have tabled will, I hope, be adopted in plenary. Finally, the resolution before us contains blatant contradictions. Several of the provisions come from different points of view and I fear that as a whole, it lacks the coherence needed for the European Parliament’s message to Romania to be clear, precise and firm. I regret this, because Romania, which faces huge problems and massive underdevelopment, needs to be understood, criticised when it deserves to be, but also advised and encouraged as to the path that we wish to see it follow and which will lead it towards becoming one of us."@en1
