lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I voted in favour of this report, and I hope that the extension of the Erasmus Mundus Programme to 2013 will continue to provide an important bridge between different cultures. The benefits of this educational programme are evident – not only will the EU benefit from attracting intelligent, high-flying students from third countries, which will improve EU research and innovation, but our own students will also gain improved language skills and increase their employability, both at home and abroad. Above all, I think this programme is particularly pertinent, given that this is the Year of Intercultural Dialogue. Building links with third countries through education fosters understanding and communication between different cultures, languages and faiths. This is precisely the kind of programme that the European Parliament should be supporting, and I welcome it wholeheartedly."@en1
