"Mr President, a few days ago I was having dinner in a beautiful Italian city with a beautiful Bulgarian blonde and, to my astonishment, at a certain moment, she asked me, “But why do you still give Cohesion Fund money to Greece, Spain, Portugal and Ireland? We candidate countries are very much afraid that the same will not be done with us even though we have a far, far lower gross domestic product than those countries. Mr Fatuzzo, could you not say that a Cohesion Fund should be set up straight away for the candidate countries, who are greatly concerned that they will be falling farther and farther behind you?” Could I have refused to accept that beautiful Bulgarian blonde’s request, Mr President? What would you have done? I thought it only fair to be the spokesman for her request."@en1
