". Everyone involved is aware of the positions I have publicly advocated on the process of revising the Treaties, the work of the Convention and the legal and political scope of the conclusions reached by the Intergovernmental Conference. These positions are duly expressed in this draft resolution, and in the draft resolution tabled by my group on the Summit of Heads of State or Government that took place under the IGC. It is these very reasons, however, that led me to oppose the compromise resolution tabled on this issue by the main parties in this Parliament. Indeed, I still believe that the European Union is a Union of States, that it is these States that must take the final decision in this field and that the European Parliament does not have the right to practise forms of political pressure that might precipitate the approval of an unsatisfactory agreement, or to allow veiled threats to be made about the emergence of a multispeed Europe, once again adding unnecessary tension to a process that requires maturity, responsibility and sensitivity in the difficult and sensitive political decisions that must be taken."@en1
