"Mr President, the deepening crisis, inequality, differences in competitiveness and ever-increasing social differences – this is the situation in which the European Union finds itself at present. Differences since the launch of the euro and the general functioning of the financial system have drawn attention, in particular, to the fact that we must address the macro-economic imbalances better and more effectively. It is essential that we carry out better budgetary surveillance. We need better economic governance based on greater responsibility for the rules and procedures that we have agreed together. It is equally important to tighten the control of national economic policies at EU level. The current stage of the crisis requires resolute and courageous responses. Member States must, at long last, consider their economic and fiscal policies to be a matter of our common, European interest. All our experience to date clearly shows that we urgently need to coordinate the introduction and implementation of fiscal measures better and, in particular – I want to stress this, Commissioner – to fight tax fraud and evasion more effectively. Let us cancel counter-productive measures and, finally, focus on new and effective ones."@en1
