"Mr President, as time is extremely limited, all I would like to say to the Commission right now is that, as usual, it can count on this Parliament to work efficiently to strengthen the euro area and Europe. However, this will only be achieved if, in addition to the initiatives that focus on discipline, we can add the stipulations of equitably sharing the gains and sacrifices between the different Member States and between our citizens, as well as a sense of hope, the hope that there will be an end to the crisis we are going through. For this hope to be real, we need other initiatives which this Parliament is trying to introduce: initiatives geared towards investment, growth and controlling sovereign debt, which is the obvious Achilles heel and reflects the weakness of the economic systems of some of the Member States.
Commissioner, you can count on us. Madam President-in-Office of the Council, you can count on us. However, the agenda has to be inclusive. The agenda cannot stipulate that discipline comes before all else, nor can it make discipline the be-all and end-all of our EU proposals. Our citizens expect this from us. They can count on Parliament. I would again like to thank our colleagues, the rapporteurs, Mr Gauzès, who is the other rapporteur, and all of the colleagues who, as shadow-rapporteurs or simply active participants in putting the project together, helped to make Parliament’s project more balanced, more solid, and one which I hope will be deserving of respect and warrant discussion in the same constructive and committed spirit we have seen so far."@en1
