lpv:translated text	"Mr Barroso, you have not convinced us. On Iraq, for example, you say that you want to turn the page and look to the future. That is easy to say; in that case, why have you not withdrawn your troops from Iraq? Why is it that we do not, today, have a clear plan put forward by you? We know perfectly well that it was your commitment to this war and your close links across the Atlantic that gave you the edge over other centrist candidates such as Mr Verhofstadt, for example. How are you going to change your image? Mr Poettering supported you by telling us, yesterday: ‘Mr Barroso does not change; he was the same when he was leader of the opposition, the same when he was a minister’. So, no doubt, you will not change if you become President of the Commission, and that is what frightens us. You are a clever man who can rise to an occasion, but you are not –unfortunately – a man of convictions, although it is convictions, along with actions, that are needed if the citizens of Europe are to regain trust in Europe and in its institutions. Today, your actions do not speak in your favour."@en1
