"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to welcome everyone back after the summer recess. I hope we have had a rest, although the break was different this time. During the recess, we followed the development of events in the Union and the world. They were important to us during the recess, too.
I was in constant touch with the Polish Presidency on measures related to the economic crisis. We discussed the situation as it developed and considered how we might react. As you know, a special sitting of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs was held on 29 August, and was attended by Commissioner Rehn, the President of the European Central Bank Mr Jean-Claude Trichet, the Prime Minister of Luxembourg and President of the Euro Group Mr Jean-Claude Juncker and the Polish Minister of Finance Mr Jan Vincent-Rostowski. In two days’ time, on Wednesday, we are going to discuss a report on the anti-crisis measures taken by the Commission, which will be presented by Mr Barroso, and at the end of September, at the next part-session, Parliament will have a visit from Mr Juncker.
Recent weeks have also brought us nearer to a successful end to the fighting in Libya. We can say with confidence that from the very beginning of these events the European Parliament supported the right side. Our unequivocal call for protection of the civilian population, which we made in a resolution adopted in March, was heeded. Now we must do everything possible for the European Union to be effective in helping the Libyan people rebuild their country, setting it on the road to democracy. I would also like to remind everyone that a debate on this subject has been scheduled for this part-session, when we will be able to discuss the matter more fully."@en1
