lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I think that it is clear that the judgment of the Court of Justice threatens the very foundations of the European Union. It is clear that the Court of Justice is the highest body for interpreting European Union law, and there is no one right now who wants to weaken that institution. This case law, however, as Mr Cercas pointed out, threatens the principle of social cohesion. For many people in Europe, a European Union that does not guarantee minimum social rights does not deserve to exist and therefore we are threatening the very existence of the European Union. As we cannot go against the judgments of the Court and we have to comply with them, the time has clearly come for the institutions with legislative power – the Commission, Parliament and the Council – to adopt measures to ensure that this case law does not become permanent, because it is case law attached to specific legal texts that can be changed. It appears that the Court itself is inviting us to make this legislative change, and I think that it is now the responsibility of the Commission, first of all, but also of Parliament and the Council, to change the legislative texts in order to prevent this case law from becoming permanent."@en1
