"Mr President, the European Commission work programme in this period of economic stagnation, and in a time of worsening poverty for families, when Member States can no longer lend for their survival, must be more creative and capable of reflecting the changes taking place in Europe and worldwide since the onset of the global crisis.
Those of us who experienced the way that incompetent communist regimes in Eastern Europe operated will remember how their leaders were unable to respond to change in a fast-moving world. Just like the President of the Commission, they shamelessly expounded their visions and objectives to the public while looking on powerlessly as their countries’ economic systems hopelessly disintegrated.
The Commission members must not take this path. They must consider whether it is not necessary to address other operational problems in Europe today, rather than just continuing to fulfil the visions of the 2020 strategy. I firmly believe that a greater emphasis on the adoption of rapid and effective measures to restore economic growth and employment would do us no harm."@en1
