"Mr President, the Committee on Budgets was pleased to address the financial aspects of these issues. We were glad that in the future our foreign policy and neighbourhood policy activities would be conducted within a more transparent and more simplified structure. We have a saying: a bad neighbourhood is a Turkish curse. It originated in the times when a large part of Hungary was under the occupation of the Ottoman Empire. We are interested in a good neighbourhood, and I believe that this instrument will help prevent the European Union from building walls or erecting a Chinese Wall around itself, and will encourage it to efficiently help its neighbours to prosper, instead. This will also be in the interest of our safety. We supported the idea that in some cases we could, for instance, waive the cofinancing contribution, because in many of our neighbouring countries the organisations involved would be unable to support such a programme from their own resources. I ask the House to support the proposal, and I would like to thank everybody for their work."@en1
