"Mr President, Dr Barroso, Mr Vincent-Rostowski, I would like to begin by expressing my satisfaction at hearing the words of the President of the Commission today. I would like to congratulate him on having made a balanced yet robust defence of the Community method. I am absolutely convinced that there is no prospect of us overcoming this crisis unless we use the Community method. Moreover, use of the Community method requires a completely firm and determined attitude on the part of Parliament and its Members in support of the Commission’s efforts.
It is often said that the Commission needs to be more proactive. I too am of that opinion. However, the fact is that the proposal relating to project bonds is already on the table. Here in Parliament we already have the proposal to increase the flexibility of funds to countries that are the subject of intervention, whether they are members of the euro or are outside the euro area, which will enable the allocation of resources to these countries, in order that there may be growth whilst austerity programmes are ongoing.
We have also had the news here today that there will be a properly balanced proposal to bring in Eurobonds, either in a form compatible with the current Treaties, or in a form which may mean institutional reform. We have also had this news here. Of course, we also know that this proposal has to be balanced, because it is not enough simply to introduce Eurobonds. That is only one possible variable in solving the problem.
What I mean by this is that we now have an array of solutions which have already been identified by the Commission, and all that is needed is our enthusiastic backing in the week of the State of the Union Address, in order to support the Commission as it puts forward a solution to the crisis."@en1
