"Mr President, President Obama said: ‘America has no better partner than Europe’. I believe that I speak on behalf of many of us when saying that this notion is mutual. The election of President Obama started a new chapter in transatlantic relations that has suffered serious setbacks. As Vice-Chair of the Delegation for relations with Canada, I even had to witness, at one point, a situation where Canada acted as a mediator between the European Union and the United States.
My second point: I welcome President Obama’s commitment to diplomacy with the Islamic Republic of Iran. However, as a supporter of the Friends of a Free Iran, I hope that the democratic opposition of Iran will also be involved. The negotiations with Iran must be transparent in all aspects. This new era in EU-US relations will hopefully extend also to US relations with third countries. Europe’s high expectations of President Obama must now be backed by action."@en1
