lpv:translated text	"Madam President, as a Pole, but at the same time a citizen of the European Union for five years now, I would like to express great satisfaction that we are talking here in such illustrious company, including people who are closely involved in the enlargement process, such as Mr Rehn and Mr Bildt. We are talking about further enlargement of the European Union, and we are doing so in spite of those who are saying that the EU has reached the upper ceiling of its possibilities for territorial development. The only good news which I have for those opponents of further enlargement is that there will be no enlargement of the EU at all in 2009. I would not like us to look at the process of EU enlargement only from the point of view of legal clauses. I would also like us to view it as an historical process. History teaches us, after all, that the Balkans, for example, were the source of many conflicts in the 20th century. They were conflicts which then spilled out over the entire continent, such as the First World War, and conflicts like the war in the 1990s, which also affected other countries, if only because of the migration of many millions of people. Therefore, admission of the Balkan States to the European Union could, in my opinion, be the EU’s most important contribution ever to stabilisation and peace in our continent. If I could just say one more thing about what Mr Bildt said concerning open doors, I would like to ask you not to forget that there are still other countries, not mentioned in today’s document, which dream of EU membership."@en1
