"Mr President, Minister, ladies and gentlemen, the French Presidency’s ship is heavily-laden and we hope, particularly having heard Mr Chirac’s answers, that it arrives safely in Nice, in six months. Nice is founded on an ancient Phoenician settlement, originally named Nicaia, meaning victory, and we are certainly expecting victory on the part of the French Presidency, both for the current citizens of the Union and for those who will be joining it. We were pleased to note the Presidency’s will, ambition and clear-sightedness, particularly with regard to the contradictions inherent in some of our European policies. Global warming is one such problem. Like a sword of Damocles, it hangs over not only the Union, but over the whole world. Integrating this essential factor into all European policies is the political challenge to which we must respond. I am not convinced that this is the direction we are currently taking, in spite of all the fine words that have been spoken here this morning."@en1
