lpv:translated text	"It is in full knowledge of the facts that I refused to give my approval to Mr Vítor Constâncio’s nomination as future Vice-President of the European Central Bank. He, as an individual, is not in question, nor are his skills which, I might add, he shows off with some talent. We would so very much like to believe him. Only, the thousands of Portuguese ruined because of his thoughtlessness and his lack of foresight are living proof of his disastrous track record as head of the Portuguese central bank. Three such important incidents are a lot for one man. How can someone who has failed in his own country now aspire to be in charge of supervision in Europe? I made the provocative comment that this is a bit like giving sticks of dynamite to a pyromaniac. These words were echoed loudly in Portugal. Like me, the Portuguese cannot understand how someone who has failed in this way can be promoted to the top level. Generally speaking, I am sorry that the European Parliament is not going the way of the US Senate and making nominations that are decisive for the future of the European Union."@en1
