lpv:translated text	"Mr President, what has happened in Romania is serious and should be taken seriously. The European Union cannot ignore any intervention in the independence of the judicial system, for example in the separation of powers, and it cannot allow any suspicions surrounding fundamental rights in the Member States. The EU citizens require that kind of confidence. It is in the spirit of our Treaties, it is spelt out right there in Article 2 of our Treaties, and we cannot ever forget that the judge of an EU Member State, a Romanian judge, is also a European judge who will judge other EU citizens. As a matter of mutual trust, we must be able to rely on the separation of powers in all Member States. Ladies and gentlemen, I am the rapporteur on fundamental rights in Hungary. Hungarian citizens, the Hungarian Government and journalists all ask me if we will apply the same standards to other EU Member States, and their questions are justified. There must be no discrimination. I think it is essential that this Parliament and the Commission stop living under the illusion that, once a Member State has acceded to the European Union, its fundamental rights record suddenly becomes impeccable. This could never be the case and we must end this asymmetry, in which financial violations lead to the Troika visiting EU countries while fundamental rights violations pass without consequence, by continuously monitoring the EU’s Member States. This is what we need to think about and implement."@en1
