"Mr President, I personally consider today’s debate unacceptable, not because I do not sympathise with the Romanian people, on the contrary, but because I believe some of the things we have heard in this chamber and some of the things which have happened in the past are an insult to the Romanian people and its democratic traditions. I believe the Romanian people is capable of finding a solution to the problem it is currently facing, all the more so, Mr President, as the root of the problem lies, in my opinion, in the very difficult and unfortunate social situation that people in Romania are facing.
I would now like to switch to Greek, to express myself more easily.
Mr President, I think that this debate is the outcome of the unacceptable circumstances in which the Romanian people are living. As you know, a strict austerity programme is being applied in Romania, a programme which is becoming standard throughout the European Union. The more harsh and unfair these measures are for the majority of workers, the more we shall see such situations.
To close, I should like to say that, unfortunately, everyone who warned the people in the former socialist countries that, when they joined the European Union, they would face very difficult and unacceptable circumstances such as those we are witnessing in Romania, where, in addition to poverty and unemployment, anti-democratic measures are being taken against them, have proven to be right."@en1
