lpv:translated text	"Mr President, we need a Constitution in order to respond to the challenges which the new millennium has brought for cooperation. A Union of almost 30 countries cannot be successfully guided by rules established in the last millennium for a Community of what was originally six countries. A Constitutional Treaty will be a rational response to the challenges that the public have set for European cooperation. They have called for transparency in decision making, clarity in agreements and treaties, and power in matters which need to be dealt with together so that the measures taken are sufficiently effective. If our citizens are to be treated equally, each Member State must have a right and an obligation to decide independently whether to ratify the Constitution. Only then will it be time to draw conclusions on the future of the Treaty. As the next country to hold the presidency, Finland deserves our appreciation for implementing this principle."@en1
