lpv:translated text	". Mr President, the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left is truly greatly surprised by the reference in the report to the undeniable economic success of the internal market and the assessment that it has been a driving force in the promotion of economic cohesion and the progressive removal of regional disparities. I agree absolutely with this assessment, if and insofar as the reference to economic success concerns businesses. Without doubt, it has indeed been a huge success for them. However, we were under the impression that the internal market was part of the efforts of the European Union to remove regional disparities and offer a better quality of life to all European citizens. From this point of view, the internal market has failed, just as the Lisbon policy has failed and just as all the policies based on the neoliberal philosophy will continue to fail. We need radical restructuring and to again make the citizen the centre of interest of the Union; we need a strategy that focuses on people. What we need today is to achieve real convergence in the quality of life of all the citizens of the Union, not convergence of local economies in numerical terms, convergence which contributes to the prosperity and smooth operation of the free market system, but not to the prosperity of European citizens."@en1
