lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I too wish for my part to thank Commissioner Ferrero Waldner and to highlight the particularly positive contribution by my honourable friend Mr Tannock to the wording of the final text. I should like to mention certain matters, on developments in which the implementation of the ambitious objectives of the European Neighbourhood Policy will depend. Firstly, there can be no reliable European Neighbourhood Policy without a balanced geographical approach. We must do everything we can to prevent the Member States from taking a customer-orientated approach on the basis of their individual national interests. The basic precondition for the efficacy of the neighbourhood policy is the political will of the Member States to make use of the mechanisms for which provision is made for the protection of human rights and democratic freedoms. The negative experience in this sector from the Barcelona process should make us all wiser. The neighbourhood policy needs to be combined with the implementation of the European security strategy, especially in the sectors of combating international terrorism, organised crime, energy security and environmental challenges. The European Neighbourhood Policy should not produce overlaps or create confusion as to the European prospects and the future integration into the European Union of the Balkan countries. Relations with the Euro-Mediterranean cooperation process also need to be defined with greater clarity. Greater coordination and better cooperation are needed with the international financing organisations for the implementation of action programmes. More reliable financial planning in 2006 is needed for the adoption of the relevant regulation on the new financing mechanism. The European Neighbourhood Policy needs to develop in a process with the participation of the citizens and of third country communities. Regional cooperation and the integration and strengthening of regional customs union also need to be developed and extended. The crucial international energy situation is such that the European Union needs to harmonise and integrate its energy markets with those of the neighbourhood policy countries. To close, I wish to emphasise the need for negotiations on the adoption of action programmes with the countries of the South Caucasus to be speeded up, especially negotiations with Georgia. Particular account should be taken of the human rights situation and the situation of the Greek ethnic group in the Tsalka area of Georgia, where there are serious problems with both the human rights and property rights of the Greek community."@en1
