lpv:translated text	"Ladies and gentlemen, the main topic of today’s debate is equality, equal conditions and equal treatment. As far as visas for travel to the United States are concerned, almost 20 years after the fall of communism and four years after the new Member States from Central and Eastern Europe have joined the EU, inequality still exists. These new Member States, together with Greece, still need visas to travel to the United States. Although I think that this is a shame, I also think that it is the United States that should be ashamed, not the European Union. After all, here we have a democratic country treating Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and other countries like this and at the same time calling them its closest allies. As far as the negotiating and negotiation methods are concerned, I fully agree with my colleagues that the European Union must speak with one voice. This is the only way to achieve equality, both equality among the Member States of the European Union and mutual equality between the European Union and the United States, including in such areas as data exchange, personal data protection, etc."@en1
