"I supported the resolution on the Commission Work Programme for 2012 as I believe that this is only an indication of our expectations. On the foreign policy front and with regard more specifically to the European Neighbourhood Policy and the European Union’s enlargement, the following year will be particularly busy. I am expecting work to get under way on the progress reports for the countries in the southern Mediterranean and Eastern Europe, as was stipulated in the revised European Neighbourhood Policy. They will provide proper guidelines for the flexible financing that has been introduced, announced with the slogan ‘more for more’. This means that more resources will be given to wherever there are more reforms going on and better results. I hope that a new balanced approach will be adopted next year and all the European Union’s neighbours will receive the necessary attention and support. I would like the European Commission to make a more serious commitment to resolving the issue of the name of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia so that negotiations for membership can finally be launched. There is a real chance that Serbia will also be given a date for the start of negotiations, which may even begin in 2012. I would like to see a breakthrough being achieved on Cyprus, allowing negotiations to be opened with Turkey, in the full knowledge that Turkey itself also has to fulfil its commitments to the Ankara Agreement."@en1
