"Madam President, to keep my speech short, I would like to congratulate Mr Salafranca, Mrs Ferrero-Waldner and Mr Winkler, for the Council, on this convergence of the three institutions, which they have described very brilliantly.
I believe that the key to Europe and Latin America’s relations — and we must not lose this overall picture — is the complementary nature of the two regions, which share values, ideals, history, culture and traditions and which represent more than 50 countries and more than a thousand million inhabitants. Together they can be worth much more than the sum of their parts and they can tackle the problems and challenges of globalisation much more successfully. If this is taken into account, the Vienna Summit can succeed. That is the direction we must take.
Finally, Mrs Ferrero-Waldner, let us not abandon the Andean countries just because one of them has cast the Andean Community aside: we cannot reward the country that has boycotted the Community, but rather we must reward those countries such as Colombia, Peru, Ecuador and – who knows? – Bolivia, that want to maintain an agreement with the European Union."@en1
