lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the 10 million Roma people in Europe would constitute a medium-sized Member State of the European Union, if they were a State. However, they are not one. The Roma people have always put their Europeanism before any border. In fact, they are like second-class citizens because of the discrimination they have suffered throughout history, not only in the areas of education, health, and housing, but also as migrants, which is their very essence. The Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights has said that, in certain countries in the European Union, Roma migrants are not treated in the same way as other European migrants, which is a flagrant violation of the right to free movement. The Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament is committed to building a Europe in which ethnic and cultural minorities are recognised, and in which we progress towards an inclusive European citizenship and an area of equality, freedom and coexistence in diversity. For this reason, we welcome the directive on non-discrimination in all areas – a directive that has not always received support from all the political groups in this Chamber. We also welcome the Spanish Presidency’s programme in this area; we believe it is needed because there cannot be any more delays when it comes to establishing European initiatives that recognise and support the Roma people. The Córdoba Summit, to be held under the Spanish Presidency, is a major opportunity to establish a comprehensive plan for the Roma people, leaving behind years of silence and racism."@en1
