"Many reports and statistics show that the free movement of workers is beneficial to the economy and has no serious adverse side effects on labour markets. Personally, I believe that the greatest possible degree of freedom of movement, including the possibility to work in another Member State – which applies to all people within the internal borders of the Union – is an essential precondition for the optimal and homogenous functioning of the internal market.
Bearing in mind the equality of all European Union citizens, I support the opening up of labour markets to the workforce from all Member States, and therefore also for EU citizens from Rumania and Bulgaria, and I call on the Commission not to allow an unnecessary extension of existing measures relating to these workers. Such a step would not, in my opinion, be in accordance with the spirit and aims of the Treaty on European Union and on the functioning of the EU, or with the legally-binding Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, which clearly states in Article 45 that every EU citizen has the right to freedom of movement and freedom to reside within the territory of the Member States."@en1
