lpv:translated text	"Mr President, please allow me to correct Mr Poettering on some of his information. There will not be a bilateral meeting between Europe and the United States on Wednesday in Madrid, but rather a summit chaired by the President-in-Office of the Council – Mr Aznar, a political colleague of yours – which will be attended by the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mr Kofi Annan, who is currently in Madrid, the Russian Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr Ivanov, Mr Powell, Mr Piqué and Mr Solana. This summit will be dealing with a matter that this House has already voted on. We believe it is very important that everybody should be there, including, if possible, a representative of the Arab League, but that is yet to be confirmed. Therefore, the summit in Madrid on Wednesday is of particular importance. I am not going to go into the debate we are holding tomorrow, but I believe it is important and essential that Parliament can speak with a strong voice in defence of the role of Europe and try to offer a glimmer of light and a degree of hope during these tragic times. I therefore believe it would be politically timely for a resolution to arrive at the Madrid Summit alive and kicking, which is perfectly feasible. Furthermore, in its Standing Committee of 6 April, the Parliamentary Assembly of NATO, which is not known for its Socialist tendencies, tabled a resolution which I believe is in accordance with what we ourselves would propose. I believe and hope that we can achieve a resolution along similar lines. I am referring to something very dear to the PPE-DE Group, the Parliamentary Assembly of NATO. Therefore, I insist that, in accordance with the philosophy of President Cox, who is not here at the moment, but would advocate this, it is essential to keep up with events and therefore I believe it is especially timely that we should vote on Wednesday and that the result of the vote should be known in time for Madrid."@en1
