"Mr President, Article 4 of the Treaty on European Union states that the Union shall respect the equality of Member States before the Treaties. President Barroso, you have mentioned in your address that without equality between Member States there can be no equality between European citizens. President Barroso, I have appreciated the numerous positions you have taken up, acknowledging that Romania meets all the technical criteria for joining the Schengen area and expressing your support for my country’s accession to the Schengen area. This is why, President Barroso, I ask you to distance yourself from the recent statements of Vice-President Reding, who mentioned a possible postponement and the possible introduction of new criteria for Romania’s accession to the Schengen area.
President Barroso, on behalf of the Romanian citizens, I call on the Commission’s support for the accession of both Romania and Bulgaria to the Schengen area, which would be a significant step towards the contract of confidence between the European institutions and the European citizens."@en1
