lpv:translated text	"I have played sport since early childhood. That was one of the reasons why I paid a lot of attention to the discussion of this report. It concerns me that the report tries to make politics out of sport, and completely loses sight of the essence of sporting ideals. Sport has historically been based on the voluntary involvement, spontaneity and, above all, enjoyment of those taking part. The attempt to truss it up with pan-European recommendations and pan-European institutions under the pretext of promoting universal bliss will, in my opinion, have an effect that is contrary to the rapporteur’s expectations and assumptions. Sport naturally encourages integration, but it should not be misused for the artificial furthering of European integration. The idea of de-nationalising sport by giving greater visibility to EU symbols at the expense of national ones is just a feeble joke, in my opinion. That is one of the reasons why I have not voted in favour of this report."@en1
