"Mr President, President Barroso, I would like to believe that everything is as you said in your speech. However, unlike you, I am filled with concern and doubt. Your plans are, as always, indeed very nice and promising, but I am afraid that they are unrealistic. You are assuming that you have been managing the crisis correctly for three years. Unfortunately the situation is much, much more subtle than that. We are already far behind schedule. We are trying to struggle through an economic crisis, adopting austerity packages, and drafts and sanctions incompatible with the Treaty. It appears that the future existence and economic prosperity of the EU will be founded on a banking union. In truth, this banking union excludes ten countries from any meaningful work from the outset. These countries may of course join, but joining will give them no benefit whatsoever. Whereas if they stay outside, they will of course enjoy all the disadvantages. In your speech you spoke of an interconnected world in which there should be no building of walls. I have to ask, President Barroso, what is this if not a wall? What is this if not a wall, if we are not talking about uniform rules, and the EU is not functioning according to uniform rules? In my opinion, this should be changed, and I agree with you that we should be talking about a single EU and uniform rules in the interest of European citizens."@en1
