"Mr President, Commission, ladies and gentlemen, we are all well aware of the political challenges that we are facing: globalisation, combating climate change, the ageing population and energy security, among others. All this is happening alongside a crisis that is showing no sign of passing. We want to maintain a strong social state, which will also enhance our competitiveness. We have devised a strategy for all of this: the Europe 2020 strategy. However, this strategy needs funding. We should identify the amount required for each of the policies in order to implement this strategy effectively, so that we will know the total sum needed.
Of course, I am advocating a bottom-up method, based on addition. Then, once we know what is required, we need to define precisely what resources we should have. Approximately 80% of the Community budget comes from national budgets, and we have to reduce this dependence in order to respect the treaties themselves. However, this strategy, the Europe 2020 strategy, should begin now, and so I would like to ask why the multiannual financial framework is not being revised at present so that it complies with this strategy, to which we have all already given our backing?"@en1
