lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I would like first of all to thank colleagues for the very warm words they said about my report this evening. The debate has highlighted the continued interest that our Parliament has towards Montenegro and the wider Western Balkan region. Our Parliament remains engaged in the enlargement process generally and, by an overwhelming majority, supports the aims of the countries in the Western Balkans to all join the European Union. As a Member coming from a country, the United Kingdom, that has now chosen, regrettably, to leave the European Union, I am particularly keen to note that I believe that this was the wrong choice for Britain and that Montenegro should by no means see this as a reason to give up its bid for membership. As I noted earlier, EU membership can act as a vehicle for peace, security and prosperity in the Balkans, and these are values that encapsulate the entire purposes of EU membership. All that remains for me to say now is that I hope tomorrow we will see the report adopted by a large majority, similar to the one we saw at the committee stage."@en1
