"In the last 18 years the USA had a lot of vituperation to put up with – and, maybe in the case of the previous Republican Administration, under President Bush, on many occasions for very good reason.
I would like to remind you that without American support and involvement some problems on the European continent would be still hanging in the air. Very often in the previously mentioned period it has turned out that the European Union can become powerless and incapable to solve conflicts that happen at our back door, on our continent.
Without American involvement and the Daytona agreement, maybe there would still be war in Bosnia. And I am sure I do not have to underline enough that the status of Kosovo would be still unclear and therefore highly frustrating not just for the people of Kosovo, but for European powers as well.
In spite of the many shortcomings of the American democracy, they have achieved something that at this point we can only dream of: they have a black president. I put high hopes into transatlantic relations, and I sincerely hope that things will improve for the benefit of both the EU and the USA."@en1
