lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, if I may, I should like to start by thanking Mr Cramer for his fine words of solidarity. As I understand it, three things are needed before the trans-European transport network can be established, namely money, money and more money. In my opinion, however, money is not all that is needed. Once upon a time all roads led to Rome, the centre of the civilised world, because that was how the Romans built them. Where do the roads of the ever more united Europe now lead? It is not my intention to answer that question just now. Instead, I should like to address another question that lies behind it. Does the transport system of the enlarged EU, which in future will enlarge even further, really form one system, and can the European network be viewed as a whole? In my opinion, the answer to this must be no. Sixteen new priority projects have been added to what was until recently 14, in order to take account of the accession of the new EU Member States. The action we take in future will undoubtedly also follow this pattern, or in other words we will continue adding on extra projects in a piecemeal fashion whenever new countries join, as though we were extending a house or making a patchwork quilt. I should therefore like to ask the Commission whether it is not finally time to take a bird’s eye view of Europe, and whether it would not be worth drawing up a comprehensive study of the trans-European transport network. This study should cover not only the Balkan states, but also Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, and probably also Russia. In my opinion, it is high time that a comprehensive and methodical study of this kind be drawn up in order to gain a bird’s eye view of Europe."@en1
