lpv:translated text	". I voted in favour of the resolution of the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament on the status of the Roma population in Europe because I am deeply concerned about the steps taken by France against this community, and I am obviously in favour of the immediate suspension of this process. France began collective expulsions of European citizens belonging to this minority last August. The Roma community is the largest ethnic minority in the European Union, with populations established in several Member States in the Union. The right of all European Union citizens to travel and live freely anywhere in Europe is a pillar of European citizenship, as defined by the Treaties. I do not understand, therefore, the deafening silence of the European Commission. The Commission should have reacted by explaining that for expulsion by a Member State of European citizens to be legal, it must be based on reasons of public order, it must be analysed individually, and it must be proportional to the respective threat to the public order and never result in a collective penalty against an ethnic minority. We may also ask ourselves about whether the use of funds to justify ‘voluntary departures’ is not a manipulation of the freedom of citizens and an illegal way of avoiding being defined as expulsions."@en1
