lpv:translated text	"− This is a report founded on erroneous principles, which then affect its entire development and some of its central ideas. The situation currently being experienced in the EU, and particularly the difficulties being faced by countries like Greece, Ireland and Portugal, demonstrates and proves the failure of the cohesion objectives written into the Treaties over the years. Cohesion has not failed because of the crisis. The crisis and the varied impact it has had on Member States is also a result of the failure of cohesion policy. Some issues tackled in the report cannot fail to arouse our concern. Firstly, there is a call for a new intermediate category for Objective 1 of cohesion – convergence – for regions whose gross domestic product (GDP) is between 75% and 90% of the EU average. Secondly, the reinforcement of Objective 2 and Objective 3 – regional competitiveness and employment, respectively – is proposed. As we have always said, the creation of new objectives or the reinforcement of existing ones absolutely must be accompanied by increasing the financial resources for achieving them. The alternative is sacrificing other objectives: specifically, the convergence of more less developed regions, whose GDP is less than 75% of the EU average. It is not clear that this is not happening."@en1
