lpv:translated text	"Mr President, despite the success of ten European parties that has been described, the democratic legitimacy of, for example, this Parliament has declined in election after election. The report states that there is a gulf between members of the public and the European institutions, which is true, but the solution to this problem is not financial support for European parties. Instead, there should, for example, be an increase in democracy through the return of power to the national parliaments. The report also states that an EU that is close to its citizens is a precondition for public support for the next steps towards European integration. In order to convince people to accept the rejected Constitution, grants must, in other words, be awarded to European parties. Any democratic forces may, of course, form parties, but to act on the belief that, through the award of large grants, the public would be induced to accept the draft Constitution would not only be an attempt to obtain acceptance of the Constitution in return for money, but would also be very dubious in democratic terms."@en1
