lpv:translated text	"( ) The implementation of democracy is a long process, and one which requires a strong commitment by the government and civil society. It is a rocky road and is fraught with difficulties – we Portuguese know that only too well. When this is combined with the breakdown of a country that, despite being federal, was fairly centralised and governed by a dictatorial regime that collapsed, leading to a horrific war which will not be easily forgotten by future generations, we can indeed be immensely glad, as I was, to vote in favour of this resolution that brings us good news of the progress made by Croatia. I know, however, that much remains to be done, and I realise that without a free and independent justice system, neither the rule of law nor human rights can be guaranteed, as there is no foreign investment or progress. This holds true for Croatia and any other potential candidate country. I also appreciate that the speed at which Croatia is advancing towards the EU is set by Croatia itself, as the rules for membership are transparent and well known. I know that Croatia can live up to its aspirations. We hope that negotiations can be concluded within this year. For our part, Croatia can count on our complete support."@en1
