lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I think that at times, when we get heavily involved in a discussion and really get down to detail, we can lose sight of the bigger picture to some degree. That is why I would like to remind those of you ladies and gentlemen who are so strongly criticising the outcome of this negotiation that the degree of similarity between the Commission’s proposal and Parliament’s proposals could be more than 95%. I think, if we look at the outcome of the negotiation from the perspective of the commitments, the result is not too bad. We have strengthened programmes that will enable us to tackle the crisis: entrepreneurial initiative and innovation programmes, the Intelligent Energy – Europe Programme, and programmes such as Erasmus Mundus. We have also committed money that will help our neighbours to the south of the Mediterranean look to a democratic future. However, one cannot deny that happiness is never absolute. For the past three years, the Council has had just one word on its mind: austerity. You are incapable of seeing beyond it. Parliament has not been convinced by austerity as a principle, and the results of the austerity policies on the European economy, subjected to all kinds of pressure, have not helped to change our minds. Yet the Council continues to focus only on austerity, and it has taken a further potentially dangerous step. Limiting payment appropriations as far as possible is one thing, but failing to fulfil accepted obligations, which is what is happening now, is something else altogether. This is neither rigour nor austerity. What you are doing is failing to comply with your accepted commitments."@en1
