lpv:translated text	". We recently celebrated 20 years of Portugal’s accession to the European project. From the outset, Portuguese workers saw their freedom of movement restricted by barriers put up by Member States fearing disruption to their labour markets. History is repeating itself and workers from the eight new Member States from the east are now experiencing the same ordeals. I voted in favour of this report because it has been shown that, just as in 1986, migration from these countries has had positive effects on the economies of the Member States that have decided to open up their labour markets. Those countries have found that there are no longer any valid reasons for maintaining such restrictions to freedom of movement. It is precisely restrictions of this nature that foment illegal work and the exploitation of workers. Above all, this is a matter of solidarity towards the new Member States. The EU must not respond to the challenges of the world with the kind of nationalism and protectionism practised in some of its Member States. All European workers are needed to improve business competitiveness and thereby increase economic growth in the EU."@en1
