lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the current session of the European Parliament began a year ago, and there has not been a single plenary sitting in which we have not discussed the crisis. It is true that there is nothing more important for us to talk about than a crisis that has destroyed 20 million jobs in Europe. It is very important, however, that we define our object correctly, because an equation that is poorly expressed is impossible to solve. Without that citizens’ Europe, this crisis will be impossible to resolve. The crisis is not the ‘euro crisis in Greece’. It is a crisis that has demonstrated three intolerable asymmetries that must be overcome. The first is the asymmetry between the real economy and the financial economy. The second is the asymmetry between the monetary union and the lack of a fiscal, budgetary and economic-policy union that is in step with the monetary union. The third is the virulence of the crisis and its challenges and, despite this, the exasperating slowness of the response and decision-making mechanisms that are typical of the European Union. We are therefore behind in responding to all those millions of unemployed people who are looking to us, and we are raising difficulties that are not arising in other countries that are tackling the crisis with greater decision-making capacity. We have seen extraordinary decisions at the same time: the communication from the Commission, the extraordinary decisions of the Council of Ministers last week and, of course, the 2020 strategy. However, these extraordinary measures do not come free of charge: they are accompanied by major requirements, restrictions and threats of penalties for countries that are not capable of restricting spending, and which could therefore also compromise growth. Yesterday, we were talking here in Parliament about the European Convention on Human Rights and the Action Plan for the Stockholm Programme. We had the opportunity to recall that Europe cannot be built solely with an internal market and monetary union. Europe is not principally built on those things, but on citizenship. It is therefore the time to recall once again that those millions of Europeans are expressing their discontent with the Europe that we are offering them, with the Europe that is expressing more threats and penalties for countries that do not comply than incentives for a model of growth that is capable of restoring employment and social cohesion and assisting in the fight against poverty."@en1
