"Mr President, in Finland President Borrell has, to his credit, championed human rights. President Barroso has been sure to champion Europe’s energy rights. That is his duty. As would any Head of State or Government, President Chirac has stuck up for his country’s gas consumers. That is as I would expect. However, it pricks European consciences, which would have been pricked in the same way if oil from Saudi Arabia, Iran or some African country had been at issue. For me, the issue is not that of knowing whether gas can be purchased from the Devil. Purchased it will be. The issue is, rather, that of how gas from the Devil can be done without. I think that, over the next few years – and in your case, Mr Vanhanen, over the next few months – it is independence that must guide us. In the next 10 to 20 years, oil and gas must be to our independence what coal and steel were to our peace."@en1
