"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the rapid growth experienced by Asian countries and the United States has presented Europe with a major economic challenge. This means that faster economic growth based on science and new technologies is needed in the European Union. A coherent research policy should be formulated to provide support for the latter.
The report sets out the key areas of research for the EU as a whole. In view of the huge differences in the research potential of the various Member States and regions, particular attention should be paid to poor countries and regions, which lack the necessary resources but which have enormous human potential, in order to ensure cohesion between Member States and harmonised development.
Certain groups have expressed the view that there is no point investing in science if the necessary resources are lacking, and steps should be taken to prove this view wrong. Special attention should therefore be paid to research policy in the countries and regions in question, in order to prevent the gap in intellectual ability and development opportunities widening instead of narrowing. The guidelines for EU research policy included in the report’s motion for a resolution highlight the key areas for the development of research. This is entirely correct, but the development of science and technology throughout the EU should not be neglected. I thank you."@en1
