lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Council President is known throughout Europe as an excellent and experienced negotiator. We have to look elsewhere to find the reasons why we are standing here today empty-handed. Many people have spoken here today about Europe’s crisis, but this is not quite right. It is not Europe’s crisis; it is the crisis of the 15, and not only in a geographical sense. We need a new agreement, and one that clearly should cover much more than just money. Some want to speak about Lisbon, and about competitiveness. Well, let us do it! But let all twenty-five of us be involved. We cannot negotiate on competitiveness if our hands and feet are tied. We must review the regulations on free movement of persons – it is high time in any case. We must not make the same mistake with the free movement of services as we did with persons. When we were unable to resolve an issue politically, we put up administrative barriers. Some want to speak about agricultural policy. Fine, but I would remind you that we in the ten new Member States are contributing considerably from our own resources. It is important that there should be a financial agreement, but it is even more important that we should avoid a situation where the new Member States are bound hand and foot once again by a multitude of administrative obstacles regarding how funds are spent, because it looks as if that is the direction we are heading in. If we need a new agreement, then one of its pillars must be to solidify the enlarged 25-member Union. Over the past decade and a half, we in the ten new Member States have vigorously cleared the hurdles, despite all the difficulties. To invigorate Europe – as Europe seems to need such – all twenty-five of us must strive vigorously for solidity. Over the past year, there has not been much evidence of this. Perhaps now things will change."@en1
