"Mr President, the new financial framework has only just been finalised today, and we are already faced with is deficiencies. The Commission could not solve the impossible, and within this framework, the European Union will not be able to achieve a breakthrough in the areas of competitiveness, research or innovation, which had actually been marked as priorities by the Council and the Commission themselves. The annual political strategy of the Commission does not promote an economic reform able to meet challenges.
It seems that the competition imposed on the world and Europe by the emerging Asian economies is ignored. Acting together, Member States may be able to meet these global challenges, but if they are on their own, it is certain that they will lose out in the expected processes.
The 2007 budget will cause disappointment, because it should be strategic, but it is, in fact, straining within its narrow limits. According to the indications, this budget will primarily please new Member States. The three-year waiting period is over, and they will, at last, share development resources to the same extent as the others. They can now start to develop vigorously if they outgrow their childhood illnesses and do not get stuck at the current 20-30% resource utilisation level.
Finally, I would like to thank Mr Elles, our rapporteur, for his critical and prudent work. I hope that the position of Parliament will still be able to influence the final form of the budget."@en1
