"Mr President, the rapporteur Ms Thyssen very rightly stressed that the discussion on the future of Europe is a political discussion, it is not a technical discussion, and that is the basic difference in our approaches. The parliamentary report, the Thyssen report, is a report which outlines the thinking on the future of Europe from a political perspective, while Mr Van Rompuy’s report is more technical in nature. Here, then, is a shining opportunity for us to prove, not with proclamations but simply by being true to our word, that the euro is here to stay and that we have the will, the determination and the ability to correct the shortcomings and fill in the gaps, giving priority to strengthening democratic accountability and promoting the social dimension of Europe through the Social Pact. Of course, ladies and gentlemen, the process of regaining trust presupposes something else: that we should not use the discussion on the future of the euro area as an excuse for postponing decisions that we should be taking today. I hope, Commissioner, that today’s Eurogroup meeting will confirm this."@en1
