"Mr President, certain projects are key for the Union, that is why we discuss them so often. Yes, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) nuclear fusion project and the European satellite system programmes, including the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) and Galileo navigation systems are expensive projects, but, as I repeatedly say in this forum, even accepting the need for targeted expenditure of European money, I do not fully understand why we cannot recognise the need for budget financing for key investment programmes. Why do we cast doubt on our credibility and the Union’s undertakings towards its partners? If we do not, despite all the difficulties, support these exceptional projects now, it may be that we shall never take the vital step, never have the opportunity again. In my view, ITER, GMES and Galileo might make a contribution to solving the energy problems in Europe and have the potential to provide much needed employment. There are some indications that the European Council might decide on an acceptable form of budget financing. If so, I fully support this intention."@en1
