"The cohesion policy is the European Union’s main instrument for ensuring that all European citizens have an equal chance of success wherever they live. It contributes decisively to creating a European sense of belonging and is one of the most successful and effective European development policies.
Commissioner, I cannot hide my concern at the Commission’s now famous ‘Non-Paper’ and its proposals. We do not accept the renationalisation of the cohesion policy, which would, in practice, come to an end if its effectiveness depended on each Member State’s wealth. I sincerely hope that the Commission will abandon that path once and for all.
As you are aware, Commissioner, the new Article 349 of the Treaty establishes the need for European policies to be adjusted to the special characteristics of the outermost regions, particularly to mitigate their handicaps, but also to make good use of their potential. What ideas can you give us on the future strategy for the outermost regions that the Commission is to publish during 2010?"@en1
