"Although I appreciate the spirit of this reform, which aims to provide Europe with a single patent and therefore reduce translation costs, I voted against it in any case. The proposal for a decision tabled by the European Council authorises an enhanced cooperation procedure in the area of the creation of unitary patent protection because some Member States, including my own country, were against the adoption of the planned system of translation. This would be a trilingual system that would be discriminatory since it violates the principle of equal standing of all the languages of the European Union. Furthermore, in my opinion, the enhanced cooperation system would damage the internal market, creating divisions and distortions of competition within it. Therefore, it would have been desirable to wait for the decision of the Court of Justice, which is expected in the coming days, and will first of all clear up a number of technical aspects relating to the unitary patent system."@en1
