Mr President, like EGNOS, the Galileo programme symbolises the spirit of Europe: to join forces so that together we can go further.
More than any other project, Galileo reflects Community spirit rather than national egos. The idea of funding based on national contributions, albeit even partially, was not a good idea. Fortunately today this argument has been settled in favour of complete financing from the Community budget.
I would like to thank the European Commission for finding an alternative solution in the absence of an agreement between companies, and for working on a proposal to allocate contracts in a way that would federate all the member states and the European Parliament.
Today, we finally have financial transparency. It is fortunate that our institution and the Council are ready to agree without delay. The scientific community and workers in the aerospace industry – and I have encountered many in my own region of Toulouse – are expecting great things from us. Let us not disappoint them."@en1
