"Madam President, Mr Barroso, you have displayed necessary and unavoidable flexibility which will enable you to obtain the majority of the votes of the European Parliament tomorrow. Today, you have promised us a genuine partnership, which is imperative because the European Union is facing huge challenges. Firstly, the Lisbon strategy needs to be revitalised, as it is clinically dead. Secondly, a deeper European Union must be dependent on the implementation of the Constitutional Treaty. Thirdly, the current enlargement needs to be consolidated, with the new Member States fully integrated and guaranteed equal treatment and the enlarged European Union made into a coherent whole. Finally, Europe needs to be publicised because there is an enormous gulf between Europeans and the European Union. For us – that is to say, for the new Member States – equal treatment is crucial. We are very well aware that there are no reserves left in terms of financial resources but, like the Hungarian Socialists and the former Portuguese minister, who empathised with the new Member States, we ask you to do what Mrs Fischer Boel promised us during her hearing and find new means and methods more appropriate to specific conditions, for example in the sphere of rural development. We wish you and the European governments success in these tasks and hope that you will achieve these common objectives that are necessary for an enlarged European Union."@en1
