"The programme of the Netherlands’ Presidency relies on realities and we welcome these endeavours. One of these realities is the accession on the first of May of the ten to the Union’s institutions, in other words, a big step towards the re-union of Europe. From this point of view, I would like to deal with two objectives of the Presidency.
First: the Presidency’s programme lays down fast and effective integration for the ten in the Council’s decision procedure. This is important but it is not enough. In order to have a successful enlargement and for Europe and the European economy to strengthen itself by its own means and also to be an active player in the Lisbon process, it is essential to consider not only the technical integration, but also the existing hurdles and their gradual reduction and the deepening of the content of the integration.
Connected to that, is the second important objective: the preparation of Agenda 2007. The aim of the Presidency is to have the basic principles and directives discussed by December 2004. Well, we are facing interesting and exciting debates. However, it must be the objective of all of us to have the successful integration feature amongst the basic principles. If I were to re-formulate this sentence in the spirit of the Netherlands’ Presidency, then I would say that it is an ambitious but realistic objective to count the successful integration as a
basic principle.
Prime Minister, you mentioned the brain drain to overseas. This particularly affects us Hungarians. We support all your endeavours that bring this opinion into the basic principles of the budget. Finally, I would like to express my appreciation to the Netherlands’ Presidency for having initiated a dialogue and communication from the richness and colourfulness of our European culture. We are indeed very strong in this. We wish you much luck!"@en1
