"Madam President, we all agree that the European Union’s biggest problem is not limiting carbon dioxide emissions, or the troubles facing Greece, but youth unemployment. I agree with the Commissioner that this problem will not disappear overnight, but, Commissioner, neither was it created overnight. This process has been ongoing for many years and I am interested to know what we have done during this time. I do not think that young people are eagerly awaiting our discussions and statements about how much unemployment there is, because everybody knows this. They are waiting for action, decisions and the effects of those decisions. What is apparent is the inability of the European Union and governments to resolve this problem and to take swift and effective action.
Initiatives such as the Youth opportunities initiative are very worthwhile, but, Commissioner, for how long will they be implemented and how soon will their effects be visible? Yesterday, we discussed small and medium-sized enterprises. Everyone agreed that their development is the best way to fight unemployment. Many people would like to create micro-enterprises, but do not have the funds to do so, so I would like to ask what action the European Commission will take, and how quickly?"@en1
