lpv:translated text	". I did not vote against the proposed new Commission, presented by Mr Durão Barroso, partly because of the political backtracking that the President-designate has been forced into by recent decisions by Parliament, but more importantly because I believe that by voting this way I have helped to strengthen the unity of the Socialist Group in Parliament. The Commission that has been approved is, however, a poor solution, which is a great pity in the current political situation. Unfortunately, this is essentially due to the fragility and powerlessness of its President. This is the real crux of the problem. The fact that Mrs Kroes has been retained in the post of Commissioner responsible for competition is tantamount to a time bomb that may do serious damage to the Commission in the future. The President of the Commission has already been elected by Parliament. To reject the Commission at this time would therefore only lead to a worsening situation and to an unwanted political crisis. I therefore abstained."@en1
