"Madam President, I warmly congratulate Mrs Wortmann-Kool on her tenacity and flexibility, which are the greatest virtues in terms of achieving fair and balanced agreements such as the one that is being presented to us. I would also like to congratulate the Council and the British Presidency on their dynamism and on the efforts they have made to achieve a good agreement. We would like the same kind of results to be achieved in other fields as well.
It is also proper that I should congratulate the Commission and, if Commissioner Barrot will allow me, I would like in particular to congratulate the Director-General, Mr Lamoureux, who will be greatly missed and whose great contribution we wish to acknowledge. The truth is that the impressive European achievements and progress in the field of transport now carry his mark. We thank him in particular.
With regard to the Eurovignette, we welcome the political signal represented by breaking the taboo of external costs. It is a small step, certainly, but it is essential to the future. We are impatiently awaiting the Commission’s study and we hope that it will be credible and acceptable to everybody, and also to the outlying countries, whose special circumstances and distances we hope will be taken into account."@en1
