"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in future memory, this time, if it is recalled, will be seen as a time of genetic change in that Parliament and that European Union, Mr President, that back in 1985 you knew well and helped to shape: the European homeland versus the ruinous illusion of the old Europe of homelands.
Today, every day, we are moving in that direction. Only yesterday, and the day before, at the Council there were calls for the Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals, the old nationalist memory, not a pro-European one. The Europe of Coudenhove-Kalergi, of Winston Churchill, of our forefathers who gave their name to our Parliament. They were in favour of a United States of Europe, today all we do is talk of partnership to all those who actually want membership, who want to be part of Europe. I believe that we are consigning them all – look at the Mediterranean – to a fate that is surely dangerous and will surely be a blow to the pro-Europeans and democrats in those countries."@en1
