lpv:translated text	"The next item is the statement by the President of the Commission on the State of the Union (). Before we start the debate, it is definitely appropriate to mention that today can and will be a decisive day for Europe. I am not exaggerating when I say to you that people throughout the world are watching the European Union today. This morning they will undoubtedly be watching Germany, where the German constitutional court is making a decision which will be important for all of us. They will also be watching the elections in the Netherlands, where our fellow citizens will be electing a new parliament this morning, with far-reaching effects on the European Union as a whole, and I believe you share my view of this. People all over the world will be watching this Parliament, where the President of the Commission will be giving his State of the Union address. Before he does that, I would like to make one comment as President of this Chamber. Developments over the last few months have given cause for concern, in particular with regard to the tendency towards deparliamentarisation in Europe. At this point and before Mr Barroso gives his speech, I would like to make it quite clear that anyone who thinks that the parliamentary process is too slow, who says that parliaments are an obstacle to the development of new and necessary structures and who believes that European bodies with European powers can be established without involving the European Parliament will, I am sure, encounter determined opposition from this Parliament. In Mr Barroso’s speech this morning, we will hear proposals for the creation of a new instrument in Europe: the banking union. One thing is absolutely clear. Regardless of which new structures are introduced in Europe, the euro is the currency of the Union. This is the Parliament of the Union. On the basis of this logic, the European Parliament is the Parliament of the euro. Anyone who has different ideas will meet with powerful resistance from this Parliament. I have said powerful resistance, because the European Parliament is a powerful institution."@en1
