".
I voted against the accession of Romania and Bulgaria. Corruption and the rule of law are such that the criteria have not been met.
The question was whether accession of one or both countries can be delayed by one year. The opportunity to postpone has once again not been seized, although objectively, according to the Commission report, there is every reason to do so. This is why today, I will once again be voting against the Moscovici and Van Orden reports.
The voters ask time and time again for the criteria to be applied strictly, and whilst this is promised time and time again, this is not done. This is why I personally – although I am in favour of admitting Romania and Bulgaria to the EU in due course – will be voting against it today."@en1
