lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Mrs Grybauskaitė, a seven-year period is a long time in the world in which we live. Since the last Financial Perspectives, the EU has undertaken the biggest enlargement in its history and has become even more integrated with the entry into force of the Treaty of Nice and the signing of the Constitutional Treaty. In the last seven years, the world has become more globalised and societies have become more complex and diversified. Attitudes, customs, behaviour and even values have changed. The Financial Perspectives must therefore be adaptable to the current political context and to the new realities of the world in which we live. With the decision on the Financial Perspectives, we have a unique opportunity to show that we have a more ambitious vision for Europe, a winning vision, which I think is shared by the Commission. We must therefore prevent, at all costs, any lowering of the objectives of the Financial Perspectives or any simple act of budgetary consolidation, which some people would appear to want. In this context, I should like to ask Mrs Grybauskaitė kindly to comment on the three essential prerequisites on which, to my mind, the Financial Perspectives ought to be based. The first of these is credibility. The political priorities of stepping up the competitiveness of both the economy and European cohesion must go hand in hand. Secondly, there must be a clear break from previous practices, by which I mean we need to set about reforming the EU’s own resources. Thirdly, imaginative solutions must be created, such as ensuring that funds earmarked in the EU’s budgets also act as a tool for mobilising other financial sector resources, be they from the public or private sector."@en1
