"Mr President, we know that the social dimension of the economic and financial crisis will make its presence felt more than ever in the period to come. More and more of us think that, while dealing with the European crisis, bringing down sovereign debt and reaching budget-deficit goals, we have paid too little attention to the social consequences of the crisis. In recent years, economic matters have ruled out all other aspects, and citizens rightly feel that nobody has come up with an answer to growing unemployment, the problems of education systems or the phenomenon of poverty. The governments of the Member States know very well what the consequences will be if they ignore certain social demands. Now is the time for social matters to be given particular attention at the level of European policy. This, however, will require joint efforts on the part of the Council, the Commission and Parliament. We cannot allow European countries to sacrifice their developed social systems on the altar of crisis management."@en1
