"Mr President, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, Commissioner, the previous debate has quite clearly shown that we have very many points of contact with Russia, and many of these points of contact also appear to be points of conflict: the situation in the Caucasus and Georgia and the issue of energy have been discussed many times, and finally also the issue of our common interests in the financial crisis, which has been brought up once again, and rightly so.
My request to the Commission and to the Council would be – and this has been touched on briefly by President Sarkozy – for Europe to stop merely reacting to situations and to try, actively and proactively, to take the initiative and enter into discussions about a range of issues that are important to us. A constructive dialogue with Russia is called for, but it should not always be determined by actions taken by one side."@en1
