"Madam President, the EU is currently enjoying increasing popularity and greater trust, as the nations and the public are seeking protection behind the walls of the EU, hoping that they are strong enough to combat the financial and economic crisis.
Due to the size of the internal market and due to the euro, the Union has undoubtedly got a better chance of overcoming the crisis. However the Union also has obligations and it must fulfil its obligations to the sovereign and to the citizens, by protecting them from unbridled greed and the consequences of globalisation. A response to the crisis must not only consist of many billions of euros worth of loans for the automotive industry; small and medium-sized enterprises, which, after all, are the largest employers, must also be supported. On no account must the European workforce be condemned to unemployment in favour of a wave of ‘blue card’ skilled labour from third countries.
Therefore it is the EU’s responsibility to ensure that its citizens do not soon wake up to a Europe without the last remains of their national wealth, in a Europe of mass immigration."@en1
