lpv:translated text	"Mr President, in all the countries of Europe there is the capital and a large city: there are Madrid and Barcelona, there are Paris and Lyon, there are Rome and Milan. In Greece, there is no shortage of cities competing with the capitals in terms of quality of life. In Greece, we have our second city, Thessaloniki, the symbol of all the Balkans, a city with a two-and-a-half thousand year history, which bears the name of Alexander the Great's sister, that is how far back it dates, a city which was the cultural capital of Europe ten years ago and which is in a terrible state. It has three times the pollution of any city in Europe. It does not have even 100 metres of intersections. It has no trams, no metro, not even a flyover. The people are suffocating: it takes about two hours to travel five kilometres. So we need to do something. Mrs Hübner had the kindness to tell me the mayor's position is ineffective; in other words, he has not asked for anything. However, this does not mean that the people of Thessaloniki need to have the quality of life which they have. We need to do something."@en1
