"The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union states that the Council may, on the initiative of the Member State concerned and acting unanimously, amend the status, with regard to the European Union, of a Danish, French or Netherlands country or territory. As such, France has requested that the Council change the status of the island of Saint-Barthélemy, changing it from that of an outermost region to that of a ‘country and territory associated with the European Union’. Consulting Parliament is a necessary step in this process. As the rapporteur says, this change in status satisfies the needs and special characteristics of the territory of Saint-Barthélemy. We respect the wishes and the legitimate and sovereign choices of the peoples of these territories. The struggle against European colonialism, in which many are engaged today, should not be forgotten, and it is a struggle that we support. It is a struggle for the possibility to decide their own destinies in a free and sovereign manner."@en1
