"The European Council adopted five principal objectives for economic growth and employment on 17 June 2010: achieving a 75% employment rate among the population aged between 20 and 64; improvement in research and development conditions and the allocation of 3% of GDP to this sector; a 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emission levels compared with those of 1990 and a 20% increase in energy efficiency, with 20% of energy consumed to be generated from renewable sources; a reduction in the school dropout rate and an increase in the number of graduates; a reduction in poverty. Some of these objectives were stipulated by the Lisbon Strategy in 2000. However, the results achieved hitherto are still far below expectations. In addition, the economic and financial crisis has triggered a dramatic rise in unemployment, thereby jeopardising the sustainability of pension systems, dependent in any event on demographic changes, which therefore poses the risk of poverty, especially among the elderly and young people. I believe that the Digital Agenda, the climate change agenda, investments in transport and energy infrastructure and agricultural development should be the key elements in the EU 2020 strategy, which will be supported by the cohesion policy, common agricultural policy and the future financial outlook."@en1
