lpv:translated text	"Madam President, Mr President, the financial crisis and in time also an economic crisis will affect all of Europe, and therefore we must bear responsibility together and make our decisions together. Since all Member States will be affected by the crisis and will face the task of counteracting it, slowing it down and mitigating its consequences, all Member States must decide together about the joint action to be taken. A situation such as the one prevailing today, whereby the EU is divided into Europe A – the euro area countries with the addition of only Great Britain – and Europe B – which consists of the new Member States together with Sweden and Denmark – represents a division of the EU, all the more so now that we are facing a crisis. It represents a negation of one of the basic principles on which the operation of the European Community has hitherto been founded: the solidarity principle. This is not the way, Mr Barroso. The Commission’s action plan, put forward 13 days ago, confuses fundamental matters with unimportant ones and with matters which may have been important at one time, but have lost their importance in the face of the economic crisis. At the present time, economic growth and fighting the increasing threat of unemployment are a hundred times more important than climate change issues. I am glad that the European Commission regards further expansion of the European Union, that is the inclusion of the Balkan countries, as a priority. The real issue here is to stabilise this explosive region of Europe, since stabilisation of the Balkans will mean lower costs for European taxpayers: the citizens of our Member States."@en1
