"Mr President, despite being unable to give a truly satisfactory response, I would not wish to leave unanswered the issues raised by Mr Busuttil, the Italian Members who spoke – Mr Borghezio, Mr Catania – and all the others; I wish, however, to say that the problem that we face in the Mediterranean is one that cannot concern Malta and Italy alone. Europeans really must become aware of the increasingly tragic and dramatic situation that has been described here.
I personally have been to Lampedusa and Malta; I met the two ministers in Brussels when the first incident occurred. We have, thank God, been able to find a solution. I will however raise the question again with all of the interior ministers at the next JHA Council at the start of June.
We will try as far as we are able to help Malta and Italy, but it is true that Europe and all the Member States must get to grips with a situation that cannot be left to two Member States alone to deal with.
We therefore need to give thought to this matter; this has been the whole thrust of this discussion that has taken place and which has shown the need for increased solidarity among Europeans."@en1
