lpv:translated text	"The European Union can be competitive only insofar as internal policies bolster its capacity to respond to today’s challenges. A sustainable regional and cohesion policy is essential to remove obstacles to economic development and increase competitiveness in the internal market and globally. The importance of a coherent and coordinated regional policy in the European Union is clear. The financial and economic crisis, as well as the gas crisis that had previously dominated Europe, proved that the lack of a suitable regional policy is affecting the whole of Europe. I believe that cohesion policy is the EU’s key policy for enabling the regions to overcome the problems that have arisen. I agree with the rapporteur that the development of territorial cohesion policy will have a direct impact on whether the goals set in the EU 2020 strategy are achieved and that it is necessary to analyse as soon as possible whether the support provided by the EU to specific regions builds on concrete results that will ensure the sustainability of regional policy."@en1
