"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to join in the thanks and congratulations addressed to those who have managed to conclude these very difficult negotiations. We are getting ready to approve a budget tomorrow which is a big step forward for the Europe of mobility and the Europe of young people. Above all, this budget demonstrates Parliament’s determination not to abandon large-scale European investments during this crisis period. However, I would like to share with you my concern and my displeasure about the choice made today by some political groups and, in particular, the Socialists, whose representatives were in government jobs at key moments, to jeopardise ITER, the only fundamental long-term research project in the European Union in which we play a leading role. As you know, the European Union made a commitment last June to contribute an additional EUR 1.3 billion to this project, which is crucial for our security. It is therefore Europe’s credibility in the world that is going to be called into question by our vote. This attitude has meant that we have lost nearly EUR 600 million of unused money in 2010, which could have been allocated to ITER. This is ridiculous!"@en1
