"The introduction of EUR 1 and EUR 2 banknotes should have come much earlier. They were demanded mainly by citizens of Member States with lower labour costs and thus lower wages and prices. We also demanded it in this Parliament when, in 2005, we adopted Ms Sartori’s written statement. However, we had to have an economic crisis before the governments and the Commission began to appreciate money more and, just as I did seven years ago, I fully support the introduction of new banknotes today. At the same time, I believe that a new argument has arisen for the introduction of new banknotes. EUR 1 and EUR 2 banknotes will help many people affected by the crisis to better cope with the need to save money. For us, banknotes are a symbol of higher value and it is only natural to pay more attention to whether and how to spend them."@en1
