". Mr President, economic development and job creation are primary requirements in Europe today. Progress must be made in the field of job creation through economic development and this needs planning of a longer term than 1-2 years, and more flexible use of the solidarity funds. We must confront the threat of climate change, and we must arrange a secure, sustainable energy supply. Environmental protection and the introduction of environmentally friendly technologies are now global issues that affect the whole of society. Following the Lisbon Strategy, and amending it where necessary, the Union must be turned into a region of prosperity, solidarity, security and freedom, striving for new partnerships with the whole world, but especially with its immediate neighbours, Asia and Africa. Europe must play a leading role in globalisation! The creation of a knowledge-based society is important for this, where citizens can acquire flexible, transferable knowledge that they can use in their everyday lives, through education and training. Lifelong learning is the basis for labour mobility. In employment, we must achieve full equality of opportunities, combat social exclusion, support those who lag behind, those in disadvantaged situations and those who have been forced onto the edges of society. Particularly great attention must be devoted to small and medium-sized enterprises, which may be tokens of a welfare society and an appropriate level of employment. Energy production must be built on firm foundations, consumption must be brought down to a lower level, and waste must be halted with the introduction of energy-saving technologies. The proportion of alternative energy sources must be increased in parallel with a reduction in the use of fossil fuels."@en1
