"Madam President, free movement of people, statutory rights, civil and human rights, an open labour market, recognition of diplomas: these are all benefits for citizens in the different Member States of the European Union. It was the European Parliament that, in 2010, asked the Commission to designate next year as the European Year of Citizens. The European Year of Citizens is of course an opportunity to talk about Europe in a sensible way so as to increase interest in European opportunities and participation in the Member States, in elections, for example.
I am certainly not in favour of a European superstate, but I feel that the European Year of Citizens will contribute to increased awareness and knowledge of the different rights and responsibilities of citizens of the Union, which should logically encourage citizens to take part in democratic life."@en1
