Den litauiske MEP Vytautas Landsbergis sagde, "opbygningen af to Europaer - et demokratisk og et sovjetstyret - blev fuldendt med oprettelsen af den barske og blodige Berlinmur.
Lithuanian MP Vytautas Landsbergis said that "the build-up of two Europes – that of democracy and that Soviet one – was finalised with the appearance of the grim and bloody Berlin Wall."
De øst - og centraleuropæiske lande befandt sig i et enormt fængsel... med hundrede millioner af mennesker i fangenskab...
He said that the countries which joined the EU five years ago were "in an enormous prison that extended over Central and Eastern Europe and contained hundreds of millions of captive people".
Murens destruktion var også en destruktion af dette fængsel og en afsked med den politiske og kulturelle opdeling af Europa."
He went on to say: "The destruction of the Wall was also a destruction of a prison and a denouncement of the political-cultural division of Europe."
"Problemet opstår, når de (vesteuropæerne) forsøger at sammenligne de to totalitære regimer, sagde Kazimierz Woycicki, som arbejder på universitet i Warszawa.
The problem arises when trying to compare two totalitarian regimes, said Kazimierz Woycicki of Warsaw University.
"Vi kan ikke tillade disse sammenligninger mellem Holocaust og Stalins regime."
"We can't allow any comparison between the Holocaust and Stalin's regime" he said.

40 dage til klimatopmødet i København
Copenhagen countdown
Medlemmer af Parlamentets klimaudvalg er i denne uge i Washington for at diskutere rammerne for en ny klimaaftale.
The visit coincides with a crucial point for a climate bill in the US Senate, which could define US energy use for decades.
Et af stridspunkterne er, hvor stor klimastøtten til udviklingslandene skal være.
The EU's stated policy is a 20% cut in CO2 emissions by 2020 but this could rise to closer to 30% if other key international partners like Washington and Beijing are on board.
30 milliarder euro til udviklingslandene
€30 billion a year to help developing countries
Parlamentets miljøudvalg mener, at EU fra 2020 skal støtte udviklingslandene med 30 milliarder euro om året, så de bliver bedre i stand til at tilpasse sig klimaændringerne.
On 19 October the Environment Committee said the EU should be willing to commit itself at Copenhagen to €30 billion in financing per year by 2020 to allow developing countries to adapt and mitigate climate change.
Der er dog store forskelle på ambitionsniveauet blandt EU`s medlemslande, og særligt de central- og østeuropæiske lande er bange for at skulle betale en uforholdsmæssig stor del af regningen.
However, there are differences between EU members, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe, who are fearful of footing a disproportionate bill for some countries outside Europe.
Forslaget vil blive drøftet af hele Parlamentet i forbindelse med næste uges plenarmøde i Bruxelles (11. - 12. november).
The proposal will be discussed by the full Parliament during their 11-12 November sitting.
Formanden for Parlamentets miljøudvalg, Jo Leinen (S&D, Tyskland), er opsat på at nå frem til en aftale inden klimatopmødet.
The Chair of the Environment Committee, German Socialist Jo Leinen, is keen that agreement is reached before the December summit.
Under et pressemøde sagde han, at det ville være "en katastrofe", hvis Europa tog til København uden en fælles holdning om byrdefordelingen i relation til udviklingslandenes finansiering.
Speaking in a press conference after the committee vote he said "it would be disastrous" if Europe went to Copenhagen without single position on burden-sharing and financing developing countries.
MEP'er ønsker fly og skibe inkluderet i en ny aftale
Parliament discussed climate change and developing countries during the 19-22 October plenary.
Miljøudvalget ønsker, at skibsfart og luftfart skal indgå i en kommende klimaaftale.
MEPs want airplane and ship emissions included
Både luftfart og skibsfart bidrager i stort omfang til det globale CO2-udslip.
As well as money for developing countries MEPs on the Committee want shipping and international aviation included in any climate deal.
For at forbedre handelen med kul og gøre energibesparelserne mere effektive, ønsker MEP'erne desuden at oprette et "ægte" transatlantisk kulstofmarked.
They are not included in the Kyoto climate protocol, which expires soon, but constitute two of the fastest growing sectors for CO2 emissions.
Endelig mener MEP´erne, at EU bør være villig til at nedskære sit eget CO2-udslip med på 25- 40 % inden 2020.
The Committee also feels the EU should be more adventurous and aim for emissions cuts of 25-40% by 2020.
Læs mere om EU´s klimatiltag nedenfor.
To improve the trade in carbon and make energy saving more efficient MEPs also want to see a genuine transatlantic carbon market created which would eventually lead to a global one.

Roza Thun om de demokratiske forandringer i Central- og Østeuropa
Róża Thun on democratic changes in Central and Eastern Europe
For Róża Thun er udtryk som 'fald' eller 'kollaps' ensbetydende med passivitet Den polske MEP Roza Thun var i 1980´erne et fremtrædende medlem af den polske solidaritetsbevægelse.
Polish MEP and former Solidarity activist Róża Thun: "Even arrested I was a free person" “Even arrested, I was a free person” recalled her memories as a former dissident and Solidarnosc activist, currently MEP, Róża Thun in an exclusive interview to Europarl.
Hun fortæller i dette interview om, hvordan Jerntæppets fald påvirkede udviklingen i Polen.
Speaking to our website she told us why she does not like to speak about the ‘Fall of the Berlin Wall’ and how Poland has coped with its democratic transition.
Du har tidligere sagt, at du ikke bryder dig om betegnelsen "Berlinmurens fald".
Earlier you said you do not like the denomination ’The Fall of the Berlin Wall’ to describe democratic changes that took place 20 years ago in Central and Eastern Europe.
"Berlinmurens fald" er efter min opfattelse en meget vigtig og symbolsk begivenhed for tyskerne.
‘The Fall of the Berlin Wall’ is to my understanding a very symbolic and important German-German event.
Men det som virkelig forandrede Europa var, at det lykkedes for os i fællesskab at afvikle Jerntæppet, denne forfærdelige deling af Europa.
But what really changed Europe was that we together in Europe managed to dismantle the Iron Curtain, this terrible division of Europe.
Som tidligere Solidarnost-aktivist, var du personligt involveret i processen...
As a former Solidarnosc activist, you were personally involved in making the changes happen before 1989.
Jeg er efterhånden en gammel dame, og det er en meget lang historie (latter)... jeg var allerede i 70'erne involveret i den demokratiske bevægelse som såkaldt dissident.
You know I am an old woman, and it’s a long story (laughs)…I was involved in the democratic movement as a so called dissident already in the 70s, before Solidarnosc.
Der var dog ingen af os, som troede på, at Europa ville ændre sig så meget, og at Polen ville blive et frit og demokratisk land og senere medlem af Den Europæiske Union… vi var ´frie´ og ´normale´, men vi levede i et fuldstændigt ´unormalt´ politisk system.
At least, we those groups who opposed to the Communist dictatorship, we were free people, we were normal in this completely abnormal political system.
Det var en bevægelse, som eksisterede før Solidarnost.
And that was already a luxury, even if we paid a prize.
Bevægelser af denne type støttede fagforeningerne og de større bevægelser.
I was a spokesperson of a student organization that was called Student Committee for Solidarity, which had existed even before Solidarnosc, and those milieus backed the trade unions and the bigger movements which arose later.
Selvom det var en meget vanskelig tid - vi blev konstant overvåget af det hemmelige politi og anholdt - har jeg mange gode minder.
I must say that even if it was a very difficult time; we were constantly followed by the secret police and frequently arrested, I have very good memories.
Jeg havde nogle fantastiske venner, jeg lærte en masse, og i dag lever jeg i et Europa, som har realiseret mere, end jeg nogensinde havde drømt om.
In addition, I have the luxury to allow myself to admit that I have some, even if very humble, input in this good development.
Hvilke af dine forventninger blev opfyldt, og hvad har skuffet dig, når du ser tilbage på de sidste 20 år?
Looking back 20 years, which one of your expectations were met, and what caused you disappointment?
Der er altid skuffelser og mennesker, som ikke klarer sig godt.
There are always disappointments and there are groups of people who did not manage.
Overgangen fra en lukket verden til en åben og fri markedsøkonomi var en stor udfordring.
Passing from a closed world to a totally opened free market economy was a huge challenge.
Polen har oplevet konstante forandringer.
Poland goes through constant changes.
Det hele har ændret sig gennem de sidste 20 år - ikke kun indenrigspolitikken, men også udenrigspolitikken.
For the last 20 years everything has changed, not only in domestic but also external politics; for example when you look at the map of Europe all neighbours of Poland changed: to the East we had the Soviet Union that does not exist, to the South we had Czechoslovakia that does not exist and to the West we had GDR, it does not exist.
Når man kigger på et kort over Europa, kan man se, at Polen har fået nye nabolande.
Our everyday life went through tremendous changes too.
Mod Øst havde vi tidligere Sovjetunionen, som ikke eksisterer mere.
The social system in Poland is not developed and rich enough to take care of those who were not able to cope with the changes.
Mod Syd havde vi Tjekkoslovakiet, som ikke eksisterer mere.
So there are some people who are frustrated.
Mod Vest havde DDR, som ikke eksisterer mere.
But Poles in general are just the opposite of frustrated.
Det sociale system i Polen er ikke udviklet nok til at tage sig af dem, som ikke kan klare sig selv.
Also in the opinion polls, they are happy about their lives, about political decisions like joining the EU.
Så vi har mennesker, der er frustrerede... selvom polakkerne generelt står for det modsatte af frustration.
They have very good results in economy - for the time being the best of Europe.
Meningsmålingerne bekræfter, at polakkerne er glade for deres liv og de politiske beslutninger, som bliver truffet for dem, f.eks. beslutningen om at tiltræde Den Europæiske Union.
They are extremely hard-working and they see the good results of this hard work.
Hvad er dit budskab til den ny generation?
What’s your message for the new generation?
Den gamle generation siger altid: "Da vi var unge, var ungdommen bedre."
The old generation always says: when we were young, the youth was better.
Ikke alene er den næste generation god, men den lever også i velsignede tider.
Not only is the next generation good, but they live in blessed times; I would wish them to wake up in the morning, smile to the time in which they live, enjoy it and feel the responsibility for it.
Jeg ønsker, at de unge vil vågne hver morgen med et smil på læben, nyde deres liv og tage et ansvar for deres tilværelse...
Those developments can only continue for the better with their total involvement in the world around them: be it their commune, school, parish, University, region, national or European politics.
Jeg ønsker, at de vil gifte sig, få børn og leve et normalt lykkeligt liv og viderebringe denne optimisme til den næste generation.
I wish them to marry, to have children, to live a normal happy life and pass this optimism and responsibility to the next generation.

Vindere i 2009
2009 winners
Sidste år blev det polske ungdomsprojekt "YOUrope needs YOU!" kåret til samlet vinder og modtog derfor førsteprisen.
Last year, the Polish youth project "YOUrope needs YOU!" was awarded the first prize.
Projektet var organiseret af universitetsstuderende som gennem en række workshops for gymnasieelever benyttede sig af en uformel fremgangsmåde til at højne interessen for Europa og EU blandt teenagere.
Through a series of high school workshops run by university students, this project uses informal methods to convey to teenagers interesting facts about Europe.
Andenpræmien blev vundet af Den europæiske Universitetsteaterfestival i Albi i Frankrig, og tredjepræmien gik til projektet "Gumboot Diplomacy" fra Tyskland.
The second and third prizes went to the "European Festival of university theatre of Albi" (France) and to "Gumboot Diplomacy" (Germany) respectively.

Ny mandatperiode, ny Europa-Kommission
New European Commissioners yet to face MEPs questions
Hvem sætter sig på hvilke poster i den nye Kommission?
EU countries have already begun jockeying for jobs and positions before naming their candidates.
Den nuværende Kommissions mandatperiode nærmer sig sin afslutning, og snart skal der sættes navne på de nye kommissærer.
It is the job of the Commission President José Manuel Barroso to allocate posts, but before Commissioners can take office they must be endorsed by the European Parliament.
Det er Kommissionens formand, José Manuel Barroso, som har til opgave at udpege de enkelte kommissærer.
Anyone who thinks this is just a formality should speak to Italian politician Rocco Buttiglione.
Men før de kan påbegynde deres arbejde, skal de godkendes af Parlamentet.
He was rejected by MEPs in 2004, forcing a new candidate to be appointed and the Commission reshuffled.
Kommissionens nyvalgte formand, José Manuel Barroso, vil snart udvælge sine kommissærer blandt de kandidater, som medlemslandene har forslået.
This time there is speculation about whether there will be a specific "Climate Change" Commissioner and if the "communication" and "EU enlargement" portfolios will remain as they are.
Forskellige lande har forskellige ønsker, men uanset hvor meget et medlemsland lobbyer for en bestemt post, er det i sidste ende Barroso, som træffer afgørelsen.
Different countries prize different jobs and although they can lobby for a post it will be Mr Barroso who will decide who gets what job, after a careful process of bargaining.
Høringer af de indstillede kommissærer
Q&A session - a sort of job interview
I forbindelse med Europa-Parlamentets godkendelse af den nye Kommission, skal de relevante fagudvalg afholde høringer med samtlige indstillede kommissærer.
Each prospective Commissioner will have to answer questions before the parliamentary committee, or committees, that covers their area.
Efter udvalgshøringerne tager Parlamentet stilling til den samlede kommission.
Parliament only has the right to hold a vote on the suitability of the whole of the new Commission, so if one poor candidate emerges and has little support it could endanger the whole group.
Hjemmeside om høringerne
Full coverage of the Hearings
Europa-Parlamentets vil i løbet af de næste par uger oprette en særlig hjemmeside dedikeret til Parlamentets høringer af de indstillede kommissærer.
A special part of the Parliament's website will soon be dedicated to the forthcoming parliamentary hearings.
Her vil man kunne følge høringerne direkte og finde baggrundsmateriale om de indstillede kommissærer.
As well as live coverage you will find background documents, profiles of the Commissioners-designate, videos and other material.

20 år efter Jerntæppets fald
1989 - Europe's Annus Mirabilis
Hundredvis af mennesker demonstrerede i Warszawa den 1. maj 1989 Da det første direkte valgte Europa-Parlament trådte sammen i 1979, blev den kolde krig og opdelingen af Europa opfattet som en naturlig del af europæernes dagligdag.
Hundreds of people demonstrate in the streets of Warsaw during a May Day rally organised by Solidarity 1 May 1989.©Belga/D Wojteic The two decades that have passed since Europe's revolutions of 1989 have only served to highlight the importance of those events.
I Vesteuropa var man knyttet til USA, mens man i Østeuropa var knyttet til Sovjetunionen.
The Solidarity victory in Poland, people standing on the Berlin Wall and huge crowds on Prague's Wenceslas square, such images seemed impossible in the spring of that year.
Begrebet "Jerntæppet "blev almindelig kendt, efter at Churchill brugte det i en tale i Fulton, Missouri, USA, den 5. marts 1946.
The end of the Soviet Empire in Central and Eastern Europe heralded the end of the Cold War and opened the door to Germany's unification and the uniting of independent states in a European Union.
For 20 år siden kollapsede Østeuropas kommunistiske regimer, og i dag er langt størstedelen af de østeuropæiske lande blevet medlemmer af Den Europæiske Union.
Here we look at some of the events of that climatic year and speak to some people who experienced them first hand.
Vi ser her tilbage på nogle af de begivenheder, der ændrede Østeuropas skæbne.
From the symbolic cutting of the Iron Curtain in Hungary to the sight of millions of people holding hands across the Baltic States in protest at their annexation, the year saw millions of people seize their freedom through non-violent demonstrations.
Roza Thun om de demokratiske forandringer i Central- og Østeuropa
The countries behind the Berlin Wall have now come in from the proverbial political cold and joined the European Union in the last five years.
Hun fortæller i dette interview om, hvordan Jerntæppets fald påvirkede udviklingen i Polen.
Later, in 1968 in Prague and in Poland in the 1980s dissent would be crushed, although it left a lasting legacy of hope for change behind it.
Du har tidligere sagt, at du ikke bryder dig om betegnelsen "Berlinmurens fald".
