"Madam President, I believe that increasingly the European Parliament must be the European Parliament, not a collection of parliaments of Member States. That is why this interim report – and I commend my colleagues Böge and Kalfin – actually reflects a hugely European dimension to the budget. For too long we have had debates about those who pay and those who benefit. This is not the way we should talk in terms of a European Union budget. Yes, we have to acknowledge difficulties in Member States, but we must insist that the budget of the European Union is for European citizens, for growth and for jobs. The chairman of the Agriculture Committee has reflected very well the view of that committee, but can I also stress to colleagues that we are asking for this money to facilitate more farmers in the European Union. We have heard the arguments of colleagues from the new Member States, who rightly and justifiably feel that they are badly treated because of the differences in payments, so we must acknowledge that this report is a European report. Let us keep up that good work."@en1
