"Madam President, President Barroso, in my opinion you have succeeded magnificently in the role of President of the Commission. It is easy to criticise but we have to give credit where credit is due. Leading 27 different countries in a pluralist Europe is a challenging task and you have done it well. You have been a balancing factor between the large and small countries, so in this connection I would like to borrow the words of my party’s Chairman, Finnish Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen, who said that you deserved a further term of office. I am greatly in favour of your further term and I will vote for it. What you have accomplished in five years speaks for itself. In my view, there is no longer any need for proposals for new programmes because actions speak for themselves and I hope that the Finnish Commissioner, Olli Rehn, will also enjoy a good and strong position in the next Commission. Most important of all, however, is that tomorrow we will vote in favour of your being able to establish a new Commission. I wish you every success."@en1
