"Mr President, Mr Barroso, Mr Reinfeldt, first of all, I would like to congratulate the Swedish Presidency on the six months of relentless and very ambitious work it has done, notably by securing, alongside the Heads of State or Government and within the scope of the G20, a common and ambitious position on financial regulation matters.
When it comes to the Copenhagen conference, too, we see that the European Union has an ambitious, very elevated, very proactive and common position. I would like therefore to endorse its positions and its decisions. Europe has been a driving force behind the proposal, negotiation and conclusion of major agreements concerning this financial crisis, which affects the whole of Europe.
The European Council also gave its verdict, last week, on the new financial supervisory architecture, and negotiations with the European Parliament have been opened since, from now on, the responsibility for monitoring the implementation of the decisions taken in Pittsburgh will also be shared by the European Parliament.
The financial crisis has revealed the weak points in our financial supervision system. The idea was to ensure better coordination, but also to renew and strengthen the powers of European authorities; these are urgent requirements.
I hope – and I am addressing the Commission here – that we remain vigilant and maintain this level of ambition when implementing our decisions."@en1
