lpv:translated text	". Mr President, today I have just discovered once again that Christian Democrat in one country does not mean the same thing as Christian Democrat in another country, I congratulate you ... The same goes for the Greens, but at the moment, I am addressing the President of the Union and not the President of the European Greens. That is the difference, Mr Poettering! You said something very interesting. If you are actually setting up a working group with Mr Barroso to look at the Lisbon process, I shall be very interested in taking part, in order to try and have everybody singing from the same hymn-sheet. In fact, we agree with you and disagree with Mr Barroso; competitiveness must go hand in hand with sustainable growth, with social solidarity and environmental responsibility. Mr Barroso forgot three of these four elements and this is why we need a working group between the Commission and the Council to have everybody singing from the same hymn-sheet. We are on your side, Mr President-in-Office of the Council. As regards the financial perspectives, everybody is once again in agreement. Paraphrasing Victor Hugo, I should like to tell you that letting stingy countries govern Europe is tantamount to letting a hurricane govern the ocean. That is something we do not want. It is apparent that when the hurricane governs the ocean, everything collapses. If the stingy countries – by which I mean countries and governments that are very close to me – prevail with their 1%, Europe will be the loser. We are therefore on your side, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, in the fight against any attempts at reducing the European budget. Reducing the European budget is in fact tantamount to letting Europe collapse. I should like to say one other thing – and this is very important – about education. I refer to the debate initiated by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development with the Programme for International Student Assessment. When discussing education, it is important to have the courage to say what works and what does not work in the Member States. It is not enough to speak of the need to educate, one must also say that there are education systems, teaching systems in Europe that are counter-productive, reactionary and ideological. To conclude, I should like to say that the tenth anniversary of the Dayton agreement and of Srebrenica falls during your Presidency. I therefore ask Europe to take steps to revise the Dayton agreement, which might have been a necessary measure in its time, but which is unacceptable in view of the Constitution now in force in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Consequently, on the occasion of ten years since Srebrenica, I ask you, on Europe’s behalf, to take steps to revise the Dayton agreement."@en1
