lpv:translated text	". I voted in favour of the compromise motion for a resolution on the Commission’s political orientations and wish to highlight in particular the pact on the economic, social and territorial cohesion policies. As I have said on many occasions, I feel that cohesion policy is a guiding principle and the very backbone of the entire EU, without which the EU would lose its raison d’être. Without cohesion policies, the EU would be no more than a ‘hyper-market’, an instrument of subordination to the big and the dominant, in all fields. As one of the EU’s founding principles, the principle of cohesion is, moreover, a fundamentally Christian-Democratic concept. The Left is welcome to join us in this interpretation, but we must not leave it to the Left to advocate and defend principles that are ours. In other words, we must develop competitiveness, but without damaging cohesion; rather, we must make cohesion stronger."@en1
