lpv:translated text	". We continue to abstain, just as we did on the occasion of the last EU enlargement, with the exception of Cyprus, on whose accession we voted in favour, by way of a protest against Turkey’s unacceptable occupation of the north of the island. We are not in principle opposed to the accession of new Member States, provided that this is the will of the people and that it does not undermine Portuguese interests. The fact is that, although we do not know the feelings of the Romanian people, accession gives rise to expectations, following enormous demands and impositions that we feel are unacceptable, not least structural reforms leading to privatisations, which have had a negative impact on people’s lives. The new demands that various Members of this House have attempted to introduce strike us as excessive and unacceptable. The truth, however, is that demands are already in place, such as derogations with regard to freedom of movement of workers. Furthermore, we also disagree with the scant financial resources made available, especially for farming. Lastly, we also disagree with the proposals, currently under negotiation, on the new financial perspectives, which do not take account of countries in difficulty, such as Portugal, nor the needs of the countries seeking to join the EU."@en1
