"Mr President, Prime Minister Orbán thinks that Europe is stronger today than it was six months ago. Without questioning the merits of your administration throughout the Presidency, I would hesitate to share your assessment.
The cacophony that has surrounded the Greek crisis from the start, with the negative impact that it has had, has not strengthened Europe. If anything is stronger than it was six months ago, it is speculation.
The True Finns, too, are stronger than they were six months ago. As for the enlargement – and I choose my words carefully here – it will only strengthen Europe if Europe is capable of coming up with rules that can ensure respect for the Copenhagen criteria on the part of all Member States once they become members of this European Union; that is, not only before but also after their accession to the European Union.
Regarding the Schengen Agreement, I also think that, unfortunately, those who are sceptical about, or opposed to, the principles enshrined in this agreement are stronger today than they were six months ago."@en1
