lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I voted in favour of the report, because it is very topical. Next year it will be 20 years since the concept of EU citizenship was introduced. Despite this, many EU citizens are still unaware of their rights and opportunities in Europe. The attitudes of citizens towards the EU have cooled, thanks to the financial crisis. The EU is regarded more and more as a mere bureaucracy, and the legal instruments that it issues are regarded as making the everyday lives of citizens more difficult, rather than easier. Convincing citizens of the benefits of the EU is primarily the duty of politicians. The participation of citizens in public debate on the various EU policy areas is something that must be promoted. It is only in this way that we will be able to build a Europe that is really supported by the people."@en1
