"I wish to steer the debate in a more practical direction because last week, the Commissioner declared that there will be a special audit carried out by Eurostat on the statistical data which the Commission has received from Bulgaria.
Unfortunately, however, it was not clear from Mr Rehn’s statement why such an audit was necessary. This is why I wish to take this opportunity now to ask him a question.
Which criteria singled out the most stable Member State in the Balkans when all the other Member States in the Balkans are experiencing great difficulties? What were these criteria which determined that an audit should be carried out specifically in Bulgaria? Is this not also a sign of some inertia on your part, coming from your previous area of responsibility, enlargement?
You also just said that it is highly unfortunate that Moody’s has downgraded Greece’s credit rating. However, do you realise that by bandying about such statements in the public domain, Bulgaria’s credit rating too may be downgraded next? You cannot then get angry at Moody’s. You will only have yourself to get angry at in that case."@en1
