lpv:translated text	"Mr President, on behalf of the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, I should like to warmly congratulate you on your election as President of this House. I should like to tell you that it is an honour for our group that a prominent Member, such as yourself, will be leading us throughout this next stage in Parliament at a time – as you have said – of many problems, many threats and many risks for Europe and for Parliament itself: risks for fundamental rights, the unemployment problem, the economic and social crisis, and also the risk that Parliament could lose power by drifting towards intergovernmentalism. I believe, however, that, precisely because we are experiencing a difficult period, we need people with special qualities. We need people with great ability and strong European convictions, people with great fighting spirit, and people with great passion to lead a project. Mr President, you are someone who possesses all of these qualities. I have had the opportunity to work with you for some time and I know what I am talking about. I believe that the start of this Presidency in the face of all these conflicts – with you as President of this Parliament – represents an opportunity for us to show that we are capable of getting Europe, which has been drifting somewhat, back on course. Today, you are no longer President of our group; today, you are President of all of the Members of this House, but I should like to remind you that what is at stake and what will always be at stake is the issue of building a more united, more democratic, fairer Europe for the people and not for the merchants. I should also like to tell you that you will always find us by your side in the quest towards this objective. I wish you good luck and success in your work."@en1
