lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Presidents, Commissioner, I would like to thank you for being here today after some difficult days and a short night. Several positive points have emerged from what you have just announced. We are pleased that things have not ended in tragedy. I would like to ask you a question. We are all very keen for what you are proposing to succeed, and I would not wish to ask you to associate this Parliament with it for institutional reasons. I would like to draw your attention to the contribution that we might make to ensure the success of your own ambitions. Mr Van Rompuy, you said just now, quite rightly, that we are learning that economies are interdependent. Could you not also learn that democracies are interdependent? The peer pressure that we have to bring to bear on each other will not be tolerable if it is perceived by our peoples as coming as a result of a diktat from the Central Bank, the Commission or even the Council. Just look at what happened between the French and the Italians this week. Would it not be possible to make greater use of this Parliament as a place where some can exert pressure on others within a democratic forum, by letting, in the case of each country, the majority and the opposition enjoy the opportunity – and this is not the case in the Council – to give their opinion? I have the greatest of respect for the Bundestag. I have the greatest of respect for German democracy, but we cannot interrupt summits just to let representatives of the German people voice their opinions. Let us draw on the German experience and the quality of German democracy and translate it to a European level. We all need to voice our opinions on matters such as these."@en1
