"Madam President, the strengthening of relations between the European Union and the United States is key in the transatlantic context and in an increasingly multipolar world. We hope and trust, Mr Verheugen, that you will not return to Parliament empty handed. In economic terms, the United States and Europe have the best bilateral relationship of economic cooperation, trade and investment in the world. Breaking down the barriers to transatlantic economic integration will promote mutual prosperity. In order to complete the transatlantic market by 2015 there will need to be political will. The adoption at the 2007 Summit of the framework agreement to enhance economic integration was a major milestone in restoring the spirit of the 1995 New Transatlantic Agenda of Madrid and giving fresh impetus to the Transatlantic Economic Partnership. We need to send a message to the Transatlantic Economic Council that it has the support of the European Parliament to move forward in this direction. The United States and Europe are two giants of the global economy, and are therefore particularly responsible for shaping a globalisation with a human face. Their economic integration is a positive reference point for building an open, reliable and globally sustainable economy. This process, which is compatible with the multilateral commitments, should go further, opening up new pathways and setting new guidelines for developing more transparent, reliable and equitable relationships under common standards. It will also help to unite efforts in response to the problems of financial stability, climate change and the needs of human development. Product safety, consumer protection, fair trade, defending reputations, promoting technological inventions and innovation, accounting rules, developing financial services and regulatory cooperation are all on the agenda."@en1
