"Mr President, we are in a crisis, yes, but that is why we need to see the European budget as a tool for supporting all countries and as a tool for securing and increasing investment in public policies.
With this budget, we are maintaining the funding levels of basic policies, such as cohesion policy or the common agricultural policy; we are creating a fund destined for specific measures to help the producers affected by the
crisis; and we are also maintaining our support for the most disadvantaged through the European food aid programme. Within this budget, we are also emphasising the need to strengthen European Union investment in order to provide us with an intelligent, supportive and sustainable policy of growth. Also strengthened by our proposal are schemes such as the Lifelong Learning Programme, Erasmus, Youth in Action, and funding schemes for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Palestine is also included in the budget, for example, as well as an increase in funding for the neighbourhood policy, with special attention for the ‘Arab Spring’.
Accordingly, I would like to request effort and commitment from the Council, because I think we can come to an agreement for a more ambitious Europe."@en1
