"Mr President, I want first of all to welcome the priority to be given by the Danish Presidency to chronic diseases and specifically to diabetes. I applaud the input I believe my Danish Co-Chair of the Diabetes Working Group, Christel Schaldemose, has probably made to securing this commitment.
Diabetes is no longer a ticking bomb. The bomb has gone off and we are heading for 10% of our citizens having diabetes, with huge costs to our healthcare system. Please will the Danish Presidency help to secure an EU diabetes strategy?
In the remaining seconds I also want to repeat the question that Guy Verhofstadt put – and, hopefully, get an answer from the Prime Minister. What is the Council doing to call Hungary to account? There is a legal and constitutional crisis in Hungary which is a real threat to European values of liberal democracy. I hope we are going to get a change to the traditional diplomatic club in the Council, where none of the 27 call each other to account because of the ‘I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine’ culture."@en1
