lpv:translated text	"Today’s vote in Parliament allowed a firm attitude to be adopted, condemning the initiative of the Dutch Freedom Party (PVV), which has launched a xenophobic website where Dutch citizens are encouraged to make complaints against East European citizens in the Netherlands, especially against Romanians, Bulgarians and Poles. The responses from the Commission and Council have been muted so far. I hope that this resolution will spur these institutions on to take all the necessary steps to stop such attitudes being promoted, which flagrantly contravene the EU’s fundamental values. We have used this resolution to call on the Netherlands Government to distance itself from this discriminatory action which is creating a serious precedent. This discriminatory attitude is backed up by the refusal to allow Romania and Bulgaria to join the Schengen area. In this context, the Netherlands Government must reconsider immediately its attitude to the accession of both states to Schengen and bear in mind the conclusions from the European Council meetings held on 24 June 2011 and 1-2 March 2012, which reaffirm that Romania and Bulgaria have met all the Schengen criteria. Similarly, the Commission, as the guardian of the Treaties, must verify the compatibility of the Netherlands’ legislation with the relevant European legislation relating to acts which instigate xenophobia and intolerance."@en1
