". I do not believe there is any young adult in Europe today who has not heard of the Erasmus programme, which helps students in higher education pursue studies in other countries for various lengths of time. In the recent 2010/2011 academic year more than 200 000 students participated in this popular higher-education programme, proving that Erasmus is one of the most successful achievements of the European Union with a positive influence that stretches far and beyond higher education. However, it appears that the recent austerity measures in the EU have put the financing of the programme at risk. Although the European Commission will recommend that the 2012 budget be supplemented in this area with the funds necessary to run Erasmus, if the Member States and Parliament are unable to agree on further payments then there will be no funds in the coming academic year to finance the students’ studies. I know that the lengthy economic crisis and therefore the fiscal austerity measures affect more or less every country in the Union, but I still call upon the Member States to support the Commission’s proposal, because if we do not ensure that the professionals of the future are properly trained, we will have no chance of recovering from the crisis."@en1
