"Mr President, at a time when Europe is in the depths of an unprecedented financial crisis, which testifies to the interdependency of our economies, and while the countries to the south of the Mediterranean are now pursuing a new political approach following the will of their peoples, it is more essential than ever before to consolidate the relationships of the European Union with its neighbours on the Mediterranean rim and in eastern Europe.
Through the European Neighbourhood Policy, the European Union is seizing opportunities to share its democratic values of the rule of law and good governance. It is supporting the reforms carried out by its partners, who are in the midst of unprecedented political transition.
We have a role to play in this historic upheaval, but we must be careful not to impose a model that does not exactly meet the needs of the peoples who have been brave enough to rise up and reject a system that they no longer found acceptable. The Arab revolutions have redefined the contours of the European Neighbourhood Policy. We must be delighted about that."@en1
