lpv:translated text	"Madam President, it has now been 10 years since the Barcelona Declaration and it is therefore time to make an honest and dispassionate review of the policies and actions of the truly historic initiative of Euro-Mediterranean cooperation. In 1995, we set ambitious objectives, because the regional environment was much more favourable. Unfortunately, I fear today that the geopolitical regional scenario in the Middle East and the Mediterranean in general is not conducive to the implementation of Euro-Mediterranean cooperation. The impasse in the peace process in the Middle East and the Palestinian question continue to have a determining and negative influence on Euro-Mediterranean cooperation. This was and is the basic precondition for the implementation of the objectives. Everyone spoke of results that were not particularly encouraging. However, I should like to comment on two main points. The question is how the Barcelona process will proceed in coming years. I believe that it is particularly difficult for the European Neighbourhood Policy to coexist with the Euro-Mediterranean process, when there are overlaps between objectives and policies. It is difficult for the European Union to persuade our Mediterranean partners of the honesty of its intentions without significant financing resources and with a limited Community budget. There has been institutional inflation in Euro-Mediterranean cooperation with the constant creation of new institutions and bodies. How will they operate without adequate financing? How will serious initiatives be implemented, such as that of the Spanish Prime Minister, Mr Zapatero, on the alliance between civilisations and dialogue between religions? At the Barcelona conference in November, wish lists will not be enough to persuade the Mediterranean partners. What is needed is a realistic roadmap and realistic priorities for the implementation of the objectives of Euro-Mediterranean cooperation."@en1
