lpv:translated text	"Mr President, first of all I would like to congratulate the Portuguese Presidency on the determination, speed and proactiveness it has shown. Thanks to it, we today have a text of the Reform Treaty, which is to be put forward to the Intergovernmental Conference in Lisbon. I hope that the governments there will rise to the occasion and assume their responsibilities so that we can emerge from the deadlock we find ourselves in. I would also like to assure the Portuguese Presidency that the overwhelming majority of this Parliament’s Members stands by its side and we expect a positive outcome on this issue. First of all, we need agreement, then ratification by all the states. I have heard various observations about the efforts being made for the further unification of Europe and I have been surprised by those who hide their anti-Europe philosophy by invoking the better in order to destroy the good. Let them be honest: if they do not achieve better unification or integration of the EU, then let England, France, Germany, Poland face the challenges of globalisation alone. Let them come to ensure peace when nationalistic rivalry leads us once again into crisis and perhaps to war. We must understand that the vision of the EU cannot simply be swept under the carpet; we must promote and realise it. Our aim should be to maintain constant progress, so that all these states and peoples face a global future rather than a merely European future, on the basis of principles and values. That is the vision that we must promote, and this European Parliament stands by your side, Prime Minister."@en1
