lpv:translated text	"Next year, the institution of EU citizenship will celebrate the 20th anniversary of its founding. It was intended to address the European Union’s so-called democratic deficit and to involve the population more closely in its workings. Today we can see that these objectives have not been achieved. Successive Eurobarometer surveys indicate scant awareness of the existence of European Union citizenship and that few people associate it with any rights. The fundamental problem is not merely that EU citizens lack awareness of their rights but, above all, that they feel so little involvement in the workings of the EU. We should therefore concentrate on strengthening our pro-citizen stance and creating a sense of European patriotism. Europeans who are aware of their rights will instinctively make use of them. I therefore voted in favour of this report, which promotes a series of measures aimed at improving Europeans’ knowledge of their rights."@en1
