lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the draft 2012 budget will not meet requirements. My opinion differs from that of Commissioner Lewandowski. In terms of research, environmental sustainability, territorial cohesion and social solidarity, this budget does not have the muscle to either compensate for or correct the national austerity policies being followed throughout Europe. This is a budget that does not acknowledge Europe’s slide back into recession, unemployment and widespread insecurity amongst the younger generations. A budget below 1% of gross domestic product, and lower than that for 2011 in real terms, is a minimal budget for a minimal Europe. It is business as usual. So as to water down the evidence of this, the proposal has decided to increase or augment the divergence between commitments and payments; in other words, it is covering up a bad budget with bad budgetary practice. The alternative would have been to set out more clearly the priorities for negative investment that would free up resources for positive investment. In this budget, however, spending on security and military research is increased, the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union (Frontex) is strengthened, funding for big multinationals is increased, and export subsidies that are ruinous for developing countries are retained. I shall conclude by saying that we have been overcome by schizophrenia: we all talk about more and better Europe, but, in the end, we always choose less Europe."@en1
