"Madam President, the Basque Country has a model for development which, along with its individual cultural and social characteristics, forms a country brand: Euskadi-Basque Country. Thirty years ago we were an industrial ruin. Over three decades we have increased our gross domestic product tenfold and achieved an income level similar to that of the Netherlands. The work and commitment of Basque society and policies aimed at supporting the real economy, led by the Basque Nationalist Party, which won the elections on Sunday, have consolidated our identity, which will be seen to be complete without the terrorism of ETA and with peace and normalisation. Currently we are suffering due to the crisis. We will tackle it by regaining budgetary balance and supporting industry, employment, innovation, competitiveness and internationalisation, not forgetting those who are suffering the most. There can be no economic development without human development, and we want to bring to Europe what might be useful from what we have learned and ask for recognition and protection for our institutions and aspirations for self-government. The men and women of the Basque Country said at the polls on Sunday that they want to preserve that identity and integrate it into Europe. Listen to the people and they will help to strengthen democracy in Europe."@en1
