"Mr President, the European Union needs a budget that will build equality and economic growth in Europe and, above all, reduce youth unemployment throughout Europe. This budget is asking Finns for 35 cents a day. However, the budget must also be financially responsible, and the Union must take care to ensure that unintentional and intentional abuses are eradicated, root and branch. The Union must therefore take care to ensure that we are not ashamed to send the following message to our citizens. This is because the message is not easy, it is not to be taken lightly, it is not a Saturday requests programme, and the message is this: the fine line being trodden by the Member States in the budgetary framework negotiations is irresponsible. Citizens are formulating an image whereby our money, the citizens’ money, is being taken good care of and that the EU’s budget will be cut. If we go down that route and continue on it, the whole basis for the existence of the Union will crumble. Ultimately, what is at stake is whether we will build this continent together or whether we will not build any continent at all, because that is the question that is being asked about the European Union now."@en1
