"The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union adopted today by the European Parliament is a highly significant document. Let me reiterate today, however, that we all have every reason to be proud of the conditions in which we have entered this phase, which is so crucial for Europe. Admittedly, there are still a number of shortcomings in both form and content. Admittedly, I personally would have preferred a Charter with a much more sizeable social component! Admittedly, I would have liked to see it incorporated directly into the European Treaties! Yet, we must not deny ourselves a good thing, nor must we deny the considerable work accomplished or the significant results arrived at today. The Charter of Fundamental Rights is a document and a Charter shared by all the citizens of Europe! What we have to do now is publish it widely, introduce it to everyone and get as many citizens as possible to consider its proposals. This is the way in which it will gradually pervade, through case law, all our national and European legal systems! It is an extremely positive outcome both for the French Presidency of the European Union and for the European Parliament. Tomorrow we shall no doubt have to develop and complete it. Very quickly we shall have to incorporate it into the Treaties. Close upon the heels of the Charter, we must initiate work on a European Constitution for a democratic, transparent, efficient Citizens’ Europe."@en1
