lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this motion for a resolution, because Croatia has made huge progress in attaining the criteria necessary for the conclusion of the accession negotiations. Furthermore, it should be taken into account that the accession of Croatia would also encourage the rest of the countries of the Western Balkans to move towards EU Membership more quickly. I welcome the Croatian Government’s efforts to combat various forms of corruption and the reforms of the public administration, and the judiciary being implemented. However, in order to properly implement the principles of the rule of law and gain citizens’ confidence in the judiciary, the number of unresolved cases must be significantly reduced and the length of court procedures shortened. Furthermore, we must ensure that war crimes trials are unbiased and impartial. I agree with the proposal that greater attention must be paid to the safety of the Danube power plants due to be built. Furthermore, the Croatian Government urgently has to address the structural weaknesses of the economy and devote greater attention to regional cooperation, in order to tackle bilateral issues with neighbouring countries. I believe that negotiations with Croatia should only be completed once all the necessary reforms and other obligations have been implemented and without setting a specific time limit."@en1
