lpv:translated text	"I voted against the joint motion for a resolution proposed by the Left because this document puts the issue of the Roma minority in Europe on the wrong track. The resolution adopted during plenary is an ideological text rather than a concrete action plan. The resolution tabled by the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament is basically a show of hypocrisy covered up by ‘progressive’ political discourse. This resolution is attempting to make us believe that now we are all racists. That is except for left-wing politicians, of course. The resolution was drafted and voted on without any proper knowledge of the Roma’s situation, either in Eastern or Western Europe. The Roma issue is not a national problem and cannot be described either in terms of racial policy. The Roma issue goes back a long way in Europe’s history and still remains unresolved. The use of clichés and the political agenda, mainly in the form of the socialists’ clash with the right-wing administration in France, will not resolve anything, apart from the left wing’s electoral objectives. I voted for the resolution from the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) precisely because this document suggests measures and calls for coordination at European level. The Roma issue is not a question of racism, but of realism. If the Roma issue is dealt with according to the terms stipulated by the left, it will quickly resurface and will trigger new crises in one Member State or another. The outcome of today’s vote is regrettable and unproductive."@en1
