lpv:translated text	"Madam President, we are now debating again a traditional and important report on our CFSP. This year, its author, Elmar Brok, has decided to break the pattern of this report and introduce a newer approach, less conventional and more strategic in nature, setting a relatively high level of ambition for our CFSP. A first hurdle to overcome has been that of the current situation which compels the EU to be more inward-looking and parsimonious with its means, in other words, while challenges are accumulating, our willingness and capacity to properly deal with them have objectively diminished. Under the circumstances, one wonders whether the level of ambition stated by the report is reflecting a normal situation unaffected by crisis or is attuned to our current difficulties. This is important because, in the first case, we might become unrealistic and, in the second, we might lack credibility. A second hurdle has been the rapid evolution of the international environment, including the one in our direct neighbourhood. The report is inevitably a snapshot of the situation at a certain moment in time, while the international environment is in a state of flux. Therefore, one needs to anticipate and be in front of developments if one wants to stay relevant. A third hurdle is our credibility. Indeed, we have to convince the rest of the world that we continue to be an attractive option, that we can both master our own problems and still pay considerable attention to what happens around us and in the rest of the world. Inevitably, all these hurdles have influenced the outcome reflected in this report. Thus, time is continuously pressing and we have all had to accommodate ourselves to the new tempo and deal with its novelty. Consequently, there were numerous amendments, too short a time to debate them and reach the inevitable compromises, and last minute amendments which sometimes go beyond and outside the compromise amendments reached previously. However, paying proper attention to this very important report, for which I salute the rapporteur, is indicative of our mission to continue to address properly international, political, economic and military issues in parallel with the efforts to overcome our internal crisis."@en1
