"The European External Action Service is gradually developing its role. Today, we are debating the funding for its activities.
In this context, it is necessary, Baroness Ashton, to be aware that the funding for the work of all European institutions is provided by the individual Member States of the European Union. Even the European External Action Service will ultimately survive only on the money from the 27 Member States of the EU, and you must, Baroness Ashton, be well aware of this fact.
Even though we demand professionalism, quality and experience, above all, when selecting diplomats for this service, we cannot completely abandon the principle of balanced geographical representation from the individual Member States. An absence of representation in the important external activities of the EU might provoke feelings of injustice or injury among the countries affected. I would therefore like to ask you, Madam High Representative, to take a sensitive approach to the selection of diplomats."@en1
