"Nowadays Europe is living in a new world of globalisation, increased mobility and migration, as well as of regional regeneration and with a reinforced role for cross-border regions. This is why multilingualism must offer new solutions to Europe’s citizens and our society.
I would like to congratulate the rapporteur for this report. I also hope that the amendments which we have submitted will guarantee mutual respect for languages, including those spoken by national minorities or our migrants, because our living linguistic heritage is a treasure: a resource which must be valued.
Language represents for each one of us the most direct expression of our culture. Therefore, by learning other languages we discover other cultures, values, principles and attitudes. We can discover in Europe the values which we have in common. This receptiveness to dialogue is an essential part of our European citizenship and a reason why languages are a fundamental element in it."@en1
