lpv:translated text	"Mr President, it is obvious that decision-making in the Union needs to be clarified. That does not have to mean, however, that the Union should move towards becoming a federation with concentrated power. I voted in favour of power remaining primarily with the Member States and the Union only being able to exercise that power which the independent Member States are ready and willing to hand over to it. As regards this vote on whether the Intergovernmental Conference should address the issue of Parliament’s seat, I do not think that it is appropriate to put it on the IGC’s agenda. If, however, it does address the matter, and if we decide to have just one seat, which would be a reasonable solution, I think that Strasbourg is the best place, because Strasbourg is the real European capital. I do not believe, however, that it would be realistic."@en1
