lpv:spoken text	". I cling to the belief that enlargement is one of the few positive aspects of the EU, provided that the movement of people can be controlled - widening of the EU means less chance of creating a tightly integrated European superstate; it also helps extend the area of stability and prosperity across Europe. In fact, as we have seen, the process of enlargement and the prospects of future enlargement are a major catalyst for change. The reaction to this by the federalists is to try and tighten their grip on the EU as a political project by trying to resuscitate the Constitution and to slow down future enlargement. This is reflected in the Brok report. The report also takes a very one-sided and unhelpful view of the Cyprus problem. I abstained in order to signal, on the one hand, my support for enlargement, and on the other, my firm and consistent opposition to the federalist agenda, to the Constitution, and to the bias against Northern Cyprus."@en⁴

Som vi har set, er udvidelsesprocessen og udsigterne til fremtidige udvidelser faktisk en vigtig katalysator for forandringer. Føderalisternes reaktion på dette er at forsøge at stramme grebet om EU som et politisk projekt ved at forsøge at genoplive forfatningen og nedbremse fremtidige udvidelser. Dette kommer til udtryk i Brok-betænkningen. I betænkningen indtager man også et meget ensidigt og ubehjælpsomt syn på Cypern-problemet. Jeg stemte hverken for eller imod for på den ene side at give udtryk for min støtte til udvidelsen og på den anden side udtrykke min faste og konsekvente modstand mod den føderalistiske dagsorden, mod forfatningen og mod forudindtagethed over for Nordcypern."@da² ". Ich halte an meiner Überzeugung fest, dass die Erweiterung einen der wenigen positiven Aspekte der EU darstellt, wenn denn die Freizügigkeit kontrolliert werden kann – die EU-Erweiterung bedeutet, dass es weniger Chancen auf die Schaffung eines fest integrierten europäischen Superstaats gibt; darüber hinaus fördert sie Stabilität und Wohlstand in ganz Europa. Wie wir wissen, tragen der Erweiterungsprozess und die Aussichten auf eine künftige Erweiterung in der Tat wesentlich zum Wandel bei. Die Föderalisten reagieren darauf, indem sie versuchen, die EU noch mehr als politisches Projekt zu packen, indem sie der Verfassung neues Leben einzuhauchen und die künftige Erweiterung zu verlangsamen versuchen. Dies spiegelt sich im Bericht Brok wider, der darüber hinaus die Zypern-Problematik sehr einseitig und wenig hilfreich angeht. Ich habe mich enthalten, um einerseits meine Unterstützung der Erweiterung und andererseits meine starke und konsequente Ablehnung der föderalistischen Agenda, der Verfassung und der Vorurteile gegenüber Nordzypern zu signalisieren."@de⁹ ". Έχω τη σταθερή πεποίθηση ότι η διεύρυνση είναι μια από τις ελάχιστες θετικές πτυχές της ΕΕ, με την προϋπόθεση ότι θα μπορεί να ελεγχθεί η κυκλοφορία των προσώπων – η διεύρυνση της ΕΕ συνεπάγεται μείωση των πιθανοτήτων δημιουργίας ενός ολοκληρωμένου ευρωπαϊκού υπερκράτους· συμβάλλει επίσης στην επέκταση του χώρου σταθερότητας και ευημερίας σε ολόκληρη την Ευρώπη. Μάλιστα, όπως διαπιστώσαμε, η διαδικασία της διεύρυνσης και η προοπτική μελλοντικών διευρύνσεων είναι σημαντικός καταλύτης αλλαγών. Η αντίδραση των φεντεραλιστών είναι να προσπαθούν να ελέγξουν περισσότερο την κατεύθυνση της ΕΕ ως πολιτικού εγχειρήματος, μέσω της απόπειρας αναβίωσης του Συντάγματος και επιβράδυνσης των μελλοντικών διευρύνσεων. Αυτό αντικατοπτρίζεται στην έκθεση Brok. Στην έκθεση υποστηρίζεται επίσης μια πολύ μονομερής και ελάχιστα εποικοδομητική προσέγγιση του κυπριακού προβλήματος. Απείχα από την ψηφοφορία προκειμένου, αφενός, να καταδείξω το γεγονός ότι στηρίζω τη διεύρυνση και, αφετέρου, να εκφράσω τη σταθερή και συνεπή αντίθεσή μου στις επιδιώξεις των φεντεραλιστών, στο Σύνταγμα και στην προκατάληψη εις βάρος της Βόρειας Κύπρου."@el¹⁰ ". Me aferro a la creencia de que la ampliación es uno de los pocos aspectos positivos de la UE, siempre y cuando se pueda controlar la circulación de personas; la ampliación de la UE significa menos oportunidades de crear un superestado europeo muy integrado; también contribuye a ampliar el espacio de estabilidad y de prosperidad en toda Europa. De hecho, como hemos visto, el proceso de ampliación y las perspectivas de la futura ampliación es un importante catalizador del cambio. La reacción a esto de los federalistas es intentar fortalecer su concepto de la UE como proyecto político intentando resucitar la Constitución y ralentiza la futura ampliación. Esto queda reflejado en el informe Brok. El informe también adopta una posición muy unilateral y poco válida del problema de Chipre. Me he abstenido para señalar, por un lado, mi apoyo a la ampliación y, por otro lado, mi firme y sistemática oposición a la agenda federalista, a la Constitución y al sesgo en contra del norte de Chipre."@es²⁰ "I cling to the belief that enlargement is one of the few positive aspects of the EU, provided that the movement of people can be controlled - widening of the EU means less chance of creating a tightly integrated European superstate; it also helps extend the area of stability and prosperity across Europe.

Uskon, että laajentuminen on yksi EU:n harvoista myönteisistä näkökohdista, kunhan ihmisten liikkumista voidaan valvoa. EU:n laajentuminen merkitsee tiukasti yhdentyneen eurooppalaisen supervaltion perustamisen mahdollisuuksien vähenemistä. Se auttaa myös laajentamaan vakauden ja vaurauden aluetta kaikkialle Eurooppaan. Itse asiassa, kuten olemme todenneet, laajentumisprosessi ja tulevien laajentumisten mahdollisuudet ovat merkittävä muutoskatalysaattori. Liittovaltion kannattajat vastaavat tähän pyrkimällä tiukentamaan otettaan EU:sta poliittisena hankkeena elvyttämällä perustuslakisopimusta ja hidastamalla tulevia laajentumisia. Tämä on nähtävissä Brokin mietinnössä. Mietinnön näkökulma Kyproksen ongelmaan on hyvin yksipuolinen ja hyödytön. Äänestin tyhjää toisaalta antaakseni tukeni laajentumiselle ja toisaalta ilmaistakseni vakaan ja pysyvän vastustukseni federalistista ohjelmaa, perustuslakisopimusta ja Pohjois-Kyproksen syrjintää kohtaan."@fi⁷ ". Je m’accroche à l’idée que l’élargissement constitue l’un des rares aspects positifs de l’UE, à condition que la circulation des personnes puisse être contrôlée. L’élargissement de l’Union européenne signifie moins de chances de créer un super-État européen fermement intégré. Il permet également d’étendre la zone de stabilité et de prospérité à travers l’Europe. En fait, comme nous l’avons constaté, le processus d’élargissement et les perspectives d’élargissements futurs représentent un important catalyseur de changement. La réaction des fédéralistes face à cela est d’essayer de resserrer leur emprise sur l’UE en tant que projet politique en tentant de ressusciter la Constitution et de ralentir les élargissements à venir. Cela se reflète dans le rapport Brok. Le rapport adopte également une position partiale et peu utile quant au problème chypriote. Je me suis abstenu afin de signaler, d’une part, mon soutien à l’élargissement et, d’autre part, mon opposition ferme et constante au projet fédéraliste, à la Constitution et aux partis pris contre la partie nord de Chypre."@fr⁸ "I cling to the belief that enlargement is one of the few positive aspects of the EU, provided that the movement of people can be controlled - widening of the EU means less chance of creating a tightly integrated European superstate; it also helps extend the area of stability and prosperity across Europe.

In effetti, come abbiamo visto, il processo di allargamento e le prospettive del futuro allargamento rappresentano un importante catalizzatore di cambiamento. I federalisti reagiscono cercando di consolidare la propria presa sull’Unione europea quale progetto politico, nel tentativo di resuscitare la Costituzione e di rallentare il futuro allargamento, come si osserva nella relazione Brok. La relazione inoltre affronta il problema di Cipro in modo fazioso e sterile. Mi sono astenuto per segnalare, da una parte, il mio sostegno all’allargamento e, dall’altra parte, la mia ferma e coerente opposizione all’agenda federalista, alla Costituzione e ai pregiudizi nei confronti della parte settentrionale di Cipro."@it¹² "I cling to the belief that enlargement is one of the few positive aspects of the EU, provided that the movement of people can be controlled - widening of the EU means less chance of creating a tightly integrated European superstate; it also helps extend the area of stability and prosperity across Europe.

Ik ben ervan overtuigd dat de uitbreiding een van de weinige positieve aspecten van de EU is, mits het verkeer van mensen onder controle kan worden gehouden. Uitbreiding van de EU vermindert de kans dat er een sterk geïntegreerde Europese superstaat ontstaat. Daarnaast helpt uitbreiding ook om de ruimte van stabiliteit en welvaart binnen Europa uit te breiden. Zoals we hebben gezien, is het uitbreidingsproces en het uitbreidingsperspectief belangrijke katalysators voor verandering. De federalisten reageren hierop met pogingen om meer grip op de EU als politiek project te krijgen. Daarom proberen zij om de Grondwet nieuw leven in te blazen en toekomstige uitbreiding af te remmen. Dit vindt zijn weerslag in het verslag-Brok. Dit rapport geeft ook een zeer eenzijdige en niet-productieve visie op de kwestie-Cyprus. Ik heb mij onthouden van stemming om aan te geven dat ik de uitbreiding steun, maar sterk en consequent oppositie voer tegen de agenda van de federalisten, tegen de Grondwet en tegen het vooroordeel jegens Noord-Cyprus."@nl³ "I cling to the belief that enlargement is one of the few positive aspects of the EU, provided that the movement of people can be controlled - widening of the EU means less chance of creating a tightly integrated European superstate; it also helps extend the area of stability and prosperity across Europe.

De facto, como vimos, o processo de alargamento e as perspectivas de um futuro alargamento são um grande catalisador da mudança. A reacção dos federalistas a esta possibilidade é tentar lutar pela UE como projecto político fazendo por ressuscitar a Constituição e abrandando o futuro alargamento. Isto é visível no relatório Brok. O relatório também adopta uma posição extremamente unilateral e inútil do problema de Chipre. Abstenho-me com o objectivo de assinalar, por um lado, o meu apoio ao alargamento e, por outro, a minha oposição firme e constante à agenda federalista, à Constituição, e à atitude contra a parte Norte de Chipre."@pt¹⁷ "I cling to the belief that enlargement is one of the few positive aspects of the EU, provided that the movement of people can be controlled - widening of the EU means less chance of creating a tightly integrated European superstate; it also helps extend the area of stability and prosperity across Europe.

Jag håller fast vid uppfattningen att utvidgningen är en av de få positiva aspekterna av EU, givet att rörelsen av personer kan kontrolleras, för utvidgningen av EU innebär en minskad risk att man skapar en tätt integrerad europeisk superstat. Det bidrar också till att utvidga området av stabilitet och välstånd i hela Europa. Som vi har sett är utvidgningsprocessen och utsikterna till framtida utvidgningar faktiskt en viktig förändringskatalysator. Federalisternas reaktion på detta är att försöka att ta ett hårdare grepp om EU som ett politiskt projekt genom att försöka att återuppväcka konstitutionen och att sakta ner framtida utvidgningar. Detta speglas i Elmar Broks betänkande. I betänkandet behandlas också Cypernfrågan på ett mycket ensidigt och improduktivt sätt. Jag avstod från att rösta för att å ena sidan signalera mitt stöd för utvidgningen och å andra sidan signalera mitt fasta och konsekventa motstånd mot den federalistiska agendan, mot konstitutionen och mot den negativa inställningen till norra Cypern."@sv²¹
