lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the public in Bulgaria and Romania are pinning great hopes on membership in the European Union. Commission and Parliament documents about the progress made by the two countries towards accession confirm that both have put a great deal of effort into preparing for membership. Despite difficulties, they have carried out, and continue to carry out, significant reforms to their political and economic systems. Recently, though, there has been increasing talk, particularly with regard to Bulgaria, of postponing accession, of vague protection clauses and of ‘other means’. Bulgaria and Romania are struggling with the legacy of the Communist regime. Just like the Member States that joined the European Union in May 2004, they have a huge amount of ground to make up in all fields. This makes it all the more imperative for us to avoid delaying what both countries see as their chance for more rapid development. We should not divide Europe once again into the better-off and the worse-off. I am in favour of keeping 1 January 2007 as the date for Bulgaria and Romania to join the European Union."@en1
