lpv:translated text	"Mr President, BONUS is, in fact, a pilot project under Article 185, and I can assure everyone who will work on the BONUS programme and everyone who will read or be affected by this that it is not easy. It is not easy to combine research funds from the European Union and from various Member States. It is a huge challenge. It is not easy to coordinate different academic research cultures and traditions, with 16 large research groups, 500 researchers, eight countries and the rest of the EU watching to see how this will actually go, plus everyone who is to review and check that we are doing the right things and that they are proving effective. This will require a lot from the researchers involved. It will require a lot from the Member States and their governments, and I can assure you that it will require tough political decisions and strong political leadership, but we have to do this. Our research programmes must be thoroughly evaluated and we need to take on this huge responsibility because we need to solve the problems together for the sake of the Baltic Sea. However, we also need to find a model that will enable us to make progress in other parts of Europe. This applies to the large rivers, to the Mediterranean Sea and to how, in general, we handle common resources provided by taxpayers in EU programmes and in national programmes. The Baltic Sea has been part of our common history and culture since the end of the Ice Age, past the time of the Vikings, past the trade during the Middle Ages, past the ‘sea of freedom’ during the Cold War, and now it is a sea that our parents and children love and that we have a responsibility to manage. In view of these difficulties and the huge challenges we face, I would therefore, once again, like to thank everyone involved. The work does not finish with the decisions we take here and the documents we sign; it is now that the work begins."@en1
