lpv:translated text	". I voted in favour of Parliament’s 2008 budget motion because it proposes distinct improvements to the draft budget put forward by the Council. A balance has been struck for 2008 between financing, on the one hand, for external policies such as support for Kosovo and Palestine and, on the other, for Galileo, a project that binds the Member States closer together. The European Socialists’ priorities are thus well reflected in Parliament’s position on the EU budget for 2008 at first reading. I would point out, however, what a modest budget this is: it currently represents no more than 0.99% of the Union’s GDP. This is the first time that the budget has dropped below 1% of GDP. Yet the Union cannot act in the interests of its citizens if it lacks the resources to do so. It is time that the Member States shouldered their responsibilities here."@en1
