lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the principle of multilingualism is one of the pillars of the European Union. What this means is that each of the 23 official languages has the same standing, that is to say, it enjoys equal status with respect to the remaining languages. It also means that citizens have the right to information on the European Union in their mother tongue. To date, the way the European Commission has allocated funding to information policy contradicts the aforementioned principle. One example of this is the Euronews television channel, which is supported from the European Union’s budget. All Member States contribute to the budget, but broadcasts are only made in six official languages. In my view, the stance on multilingualism should be firm and consistent, and no language should be discriminated against. It is our duty to nurture Europe’s national languages as they embody our identity, richness and beauty in diversity."@en1
