lpv:translated text	"More than 36 years have passed since European Union regional policy was created, and 12 years have passed since the creation of cohesion policy. Based on the core principle of the European Union – solidarity – both initiatives seek to eliminate the significant regional, economic, and social disparities between different Member States and their regions. However, the results to date are unfortunately still patchy, and between some Member States the disparities have actually increased. For exactly this reason, first of all, cohesion policy funding must be maintained at least at the current level. Secondly, it is necessary to state clearly and precisely that in the future, the fundamental principles of European Union cohesion policy must be Member States’ gross domestic product (GDP), and it must prioritise those Member States whose GDP is less than 75% of the EU average. Cohesion policy should not apply to the poorest regions of the wealthiest nations, because they have significantly more opportunities to support their poorer regions with their own resources. Unfortunately this report does not fully reflect these well-founded principles."@en1
