"Mr President, we will soon be having monuments and sites labelled ‘European Heritage’. I support this label as it will be a response to the underlying need to bridge the gap between Europe and its citizens. Europe is often said to be remote and inefficient. When put to use properly, culture and heritage can bring people together. With this type of initiative, Europe will be able to prove that it is indeed active and, above all, real. I am more than well placed to talk about this as I am actually an elected member for a region whose history began with the very first European civilisations. In the land of Nîmes, and throughout the Mediterranean, men often came from elsewhere in Europe, marked out roads, built monuments and set up the towns and cities in which are still living today. The way I see it, these are the landmarks of our common heritage, which we should bring to the fore and that is why I voted in favour."@en1
