"Mr President, the European Commission has the institutional and political responsibility to submit the most objective and fair progress reports possible on 16 May, without compromise and on the basis of its own political and economic criteria, as with the other candidate countries.
Bulgaria and Romania – and this needs to be highlighted – have made significant progress and have carried out important political and economic reforms. That is why they cannot be taken hostage either to the present institutional crisis in the European Union or to the fact that certain European countries dispute the enlargement strategy.
Today, in our debate in plenary, we must emphasise that our fixed objective is still for Bulgaria and Romania to accede on 1 January 2007.
Commissioner, I should like to highlight in particular a question which is a sensitive issue and cause of concern to European citizens and Greek citizens: it is the question of environmental protection and nuclear safety, mainly on the part of Bulgaria, on the basis of plans to construct new nuclear reactors in our neighbouring country, Bulgaria. I believe that respect for and the application of the
in the field of nuclear safety must be the European Commission's basic priority in the forthcoming period."@en1
