"The EU 2020 strategy must stand on two pillars. On the one hand, solidarity among Member States which guarantees that no Member State will be left behind in the crisis. On the other hand, Member States also have to show solidarity with the community by faithfully carrying out jointly decided obligations. During the debate on the future of the EU, we should never lose sight of the already functioning policies. Common agricultural and coherence policies are the true results of European integration and symbols of solidarity between Member States and nations. As a Hungarian Member of Parliament and a politician from a new Member State, I consider the new priorities formulated by the European Commission as having equal importance: building a knowledge-based society, fostering innovation, strengthening social inclusion, creation of new jobs and a more resolute stand against climate change within the framework of sustainable development.
The weakening of the previous common policies cannot be allowed to be the price paid for stronger cooperation in the above areas. The food safety guaranteed by the common agricultural policy is becoming ever more important in the 21st century as food and drinking water assume the same strategic significance as oil did in the 20th century. If we really want to strengthen the global competitive position of the EU, we cannot allow certain regions to be left behind because of obsolete infrastructure and poor educational, social and health services. Therefore, there is a continued need for a strong cohesion policy based on solidarity."@en1
