lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I should like to ask the Council what happened to Gothenburg and what now remains of Gothenburg, because in my view the answer is: very little. If the Council had stuck to its commitments, it would not be looking, as you did this morning and again this evening, for a new impetus to dispel Euro-pessimism, because Gothenburg showed the way and gave new hope by proposing that each year, in spring, a special summit should be held to track the progress made on sustainable development; Mrs Wallström knows what I am referring to. What have you done with the enthusiasm of Gothenburg to face up to the new threats and challenges worrying our fellow Europeans? What are your innovative, compelling and concrete plans to combat climate change and to counter the decline in biodiversity? In four years, what progress has been achieved and where are we with social harmonisation? Where are we with European public services? In my view, you have distorted the objectives of the spring summits which were supposed to provide a response to all those questions and bring about a refocusing of policy. And now you are asking for a charter on the new criteria! Mr President, these criteria exist, and you have cast them aside, perhaps because they were too limiting, too troublesome. What about the biodiversity criterion, for instance: has the Commission kicked it into the long grass? There is no need, Mr President, to go on reinventing the wheel day after day. Get back to the spirit of Gothenburg; restore this innovative project to its place at the heart of the spring summits, an innovative project long-awaited by our fellow citizens and which will pull Europe out of its state of stagnation."@en1
