"Mr President, at a time when citizens and politicians are focusing on finding solutions to the financial and budgetary crisis, it may seem that calls for the consistent application of multilingualism are a secondary matter. These two issues are closely related, however. A European identity, which is a prerequisite for mutual solidarity between the Member States, cannot exist without a sense of belonging. If the citizens of some Member States start to feel that Europe does not speak their language, it will not be their Europe. They will cease caring about its fate, the fate of the single currency, and the common future. Therefore, it is today more important than ever that the EU communicates with citizens in all the official languages."@en1
