"Mr President, Mr Van Rompuy, who is not here today by the way, received an honorary doctorate from the University of Leuven on 1 June. In his inaugural speech, Mr Van Rompuy argued that Europe must cross the Rubicon. Europe must move towards a monetary union.
Mr Van Rompuy has made a profound statement, because what actually happened when Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon? He staged a coup, he was killed a few years later and then Rome struggled with civil war for 15 years. The young doctor could not have made a worse comparison.
With this approach, the mountain of debt in Europe, which already amounts to thousands of billions of euro, continues to grow. So do not cast the dice! It is time for a study of a two-speed Europe. This would allow the southern Member States to keep the euro and the countries around Germany can introduce a euromark. Now
offers a future."@en1
