"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the European Union is truly at a crossroads. The improvement to our decision-making process has come to a halt. The most recent countries to have joined the EU are discovering a Union that is less united than it was in their predecessors’ day, as demonstrated by the stingy draft budget. The nations of Europe are worried – and rightly so – in the face of the wayward path taken by the Commission and most of the Member States’ governments, which want to introduce rules of unbridled competition among themselves. I am thinking in particular of the taxation dossier. If we value a Europe founded on solidarity and reject one that is founded on self-interest, then, ladies and gentlemen, let us seize the opportunity to stand side by side tomorrow with the demonstrators in response to the call of the ETUC and, if possible, let us go equipped with our scarves. I call on you to do this in order to show the citizens from throughout Europe that a large number of their representatives are behind them and understand their more than legitimate concerns."@en1
