"Mr President, Mr Leterme, Europe is being hit by an unprecedented economic and social crisis. The situation is urgent: there are 24 million unemployed, and there will be 5 million more if nothing is done about it. Unfortunately, Mr Leterme, Mr President, I did not hear any response in your proposals just now to this urgent situation ahead of us, and I would like to offer you three suggestions, which I believe will enable us to tackle the economic and social situation we are facing.
Firstly, a large European loan. This is one possible way of achieving this policy of full employment. Secondly, we were with Jacques Delors and President Buzek in Brussels a few weeks ago to propose a major EU energy policy. Thirdly, the tax on financial transactions. We know that a 0.05% tax on each financial transaction will result in EUR 200 billion of revenue for the European Union and 2 million jobs.
Mr Leterme, this is what I would like to hear under the next six months of the Belgian Presidency."@en1
