"Mr President, I should like publicly to thank Mr Poettering, the chairman of our parliamentary group, for his proposal that we discuss the situation in the European Union in detail today, together with progress with the ratification of the European Constitution. I wish to thank him because this satisfied an initiative on my part to have this debate. I should also like to take this opportunity to thank my honourable friends who signed – and thus gave real support to – this initiative.
The European Parliament cannot merely react. It must also act. Certainly the situation in the European Union today is a matter for the democratically elected governments; however, it is also a matter for the democratically elected institution
the European Parliament. It is a minimal indication of democratic responsibility towards the civil society of Europe."@en1
