Betænkningen anerkender at ENP, som et principielt udenrigspolitisk instrument, er kommet for at blive i et godt stykke tid fremover.
It is always going to be difficult to achieve the same degree of integration with the EU of partner countries as different as say Moldova and Morocco.
Men på meget lang sigt kan der sættes spørgsmålstegn ved holbarheden i strategien, da forskellen mellem partnerlandene i syd og i øst er så stor.
The report recognises that the unified nature of the ENP as a principal external EU policy is here to stay for the foreseeable future but it is questionable if it is durable in the very long term given the diversity between the southern and eastern partner countries.
ENP-betænkningen lægger stor vægt på partnerlandenes forpligtigelse til at leve op til retsstatsprincippet, ansvarlig regeringsførelse, respekt for menneskerettigheder og ligestilling, social markedsøkonomi og en stabil økonomisk udvikling.
The ENP report places great importance for partner countries to make a commitment to the rule of law, responsible governance, respect for human rights and equal opportunities, the principles of the social market economy and sustainable economic development.
O: Vi ønsker at oprette en balance mellem de sydlige og østlige nabolande, ikke at favorisere det ene på bekostning af det andet.
O : We would like to have a balance between Eastern and Southern/Mediterranean countries and in this respect we should not prioritize one perspective over the other, but adopt a balanced approach.
Vi bør ikke komplicere tingene, men derimod søge de letteste løsninger...
We should not complicate things, but instead look for the simplest approach, which in the case of Mediterranean means strengthening Euro-Mediterranean politics via the ENP.
Vi bør på den ene side søge en multilateral tilgang og på den anden side fokusere på prioriterede indsatsområder.
We should also look for a multilateral approach on one hand and for prioritized action plans on the other hand.
Kan europæerne hjælpe med at løse de eksisterende stridigheder og konflikter?
Q. Can Europeans look to the ENP to help settle current disputes and conflicts around their borders?
Betænkningen argumenterer for, at der bør oprettes en ´østlig parlamentarisk forsamling´ til at styrke den parlamentariske dimension og dialogen mellem MEP`erne og parlamentarikere fra Ukraine, Moldova, Georgien, Armenien og Azerbaijan, med Rusland og Tyrkiet som observatører.
The report argues that an eastern dimension Parliamentary Assembly should be set-up to improve dialogue between MEPs and MPs from Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, with Russia and Turkey as observers.
Der opfodres endvidere til at udvide den finansielle støtte til civilsamfundet i Hviderusland og til at give billigere visum-assistance til studerende, der rejser til EU for at deltage i Erasmus-programmet.
It advocates increased financial support for civil society in authoritarian Belarus and cheaper visa assistance to students to travel to the EU and participate in the Erasmus programme.
O: Reformtraktaten, der sikrer eksistensen af en ekstern repræsentant for Unionen samt udviklingen af en ekstern kommunikationstjeneste, kan udgøre incitamentet til hvad flere af os ønsker: Et Europa, der kan tale med én stemme i en globaliseret verden.
O : The Reform Treaty, as far as it reinsures the existence of an external representative of the Union and develops the possibility of an external community service, can be an incentive towards what a lot of us want, which is that Europe speaks with a single voice as regards globalisation.
Betænkningen vil blive debatteret onsdag.
WATCH THE DEBATE LIVE ONLINE FROM AROUND 1530 CET .
Afstemningen vil finde sted torsdag.
The report will be voted on by MEPs on Thursday.

Den franske præsident besøger Europa-Parlamentet
Backstage during President Sarkozy's day at the Parliament
Sarkozy og Pöttering på podiet
13 November - President Pöttering welcomes President Sarkozy to Parliament
Det er altid en særlig begivenhed, når statsoverhoveder besøger Europa-Parlamentet.
When French President Nicolas Sarkozy stepped off a plane at Strasbourg airport at 0945 on Tuesday 11 November, two months of planning by the protocol service of the European Parliament and the Elysée Palace swung into action.
Som ved alle statsbesøg gælder der særlige regler og procedurer.
The visit of a Head of State is always an important event for the EP and every last detail was worked out ahead of time to ensure it ran smoothly.
Den franske præsidents besøg har været planlagt nøje af EU ansatte og embedsmænd fra Elysée gennem de sidste to måneder.
Here is a backstage look at the visit.
"Dette er den traditionelle procedure for officielle besøg: Statsoverhovedet bliver budt velkommen Europa-Parlamentets næstformand samt formanden for Parlamentets protokoltjeneste, hvorefter de sammen kører med kortege til Parlamentet", forklarer François Brunagel, der er formand for Parlamentets protokoltjeneste.
Mr Brunagel explains, "this is the traditional package for an official visit: the Head of State is welcomed at the airport by the 1st vice-president of the EP and the Head of Protocol, then they all go in an official cortège to the EP”.
Han er ansvarlig for alle de praktiske aspekter og selve organiseringen af besøget.
He’s in charge of all practical aspects of the organisation of the visit, from the means of transport to the programme.
10,00: Nicolas Sarkozy bydes velkommen til Europa-Parlamentet af Parlamentets formand, Hans-Gert Pöttering.
1000 President Sarkozy is welcomed by EP President Hans-Gert Pöttering at the “protocol entrance” of the Parliament's "Louise Weiss" building.
De går sammen op af den røde løber.
They walk together down the red carpet, followed by their staff.
Journalister og fotografer er placeret i hjørnet på et podium.
Journalists (together with video cameras, sound technicians and photographers) are in a corner on a podium.
Pressepodiet er et nyt fænomen, der skal bidrage til at gøre hovedpersonerne (i dette tilfælde Pöttering og Sarkozy) mere synlige for kameraerne.
This is quite new, to allow the two presidents to be more visible to the cameras, a new podium has been installed for all video cameras and photographers.
Begge mænd går på afstand af deres delegationer, så det er lettere for journalisterne at få nogle gode billeder med hjem.
This allows the presidents to walk apart from their delegations, which leads to better photographs.
Først afspilles den franske nationalsang og derefter EU-hymnen (den niende symfoni af Beethoven).
Standing on a dais the men stand side by side listening first to the French National Anthem and then the EU anthem - Beethoven's 9th symphony.
Afspilning af nationalsange er et nyt fænomen.
The playing of anthems is also quite a new innovation; it was first used for the Portuguese President in September.
"Det er et initiativ af Pöttering, men det har støtte fra de øvrige gruppeformænd....", sagde Katrin Ruhrmann, der er talsmand for Europa-Parlamentets formand.
As Katrin Ruhrmann, President Pöttering's spokeswoman explains; "It was the initiative of the President but he has the support of the Conference of Presidents (political group leaders).
Ifølge kabinettet ønskede parlamentsformanden at genoplive EU-symbolerne (som flag og hymne), der ikke kom med i den nye traktat.
The use of the anthem is, according to the President's Cabinet, a way to affirm the symbols of the EU, which are not mentioned in the new Reform Treaty.
10,08: Officiel fotoseance: Den franske præsident og EP-formanden giver hinanden hånden og smiler til de rullende kameraer.
1008 Photo opportunity: The presidents shake hands for an official photo for the gathered press.
Derefter går de til en “salon protocolaire” for at starte de bilaterale samtaler.
They then go apart for bilateral discussions: “ One can't arrive in the institution without talking to the master of the house, who in this case is the EP President," said the protocol service.
Under dette møde bliver der blandt andet diskuteret det fremtidige samarbejde mellem EP og det franske EU-formandskab, der påbegyndes den 1. juli 2008.
One of the subjects discussed is cooperation between the EP and the French Government when France holds the EU Presidency for 6 months from July 2008.
11,00: De to mænd forlader mødelokalet sammen med deres delegationer.
1100 Meeting the leaders of the political groups: The two men and their staff leave the meeting room and walk to the next one to meet the leaders of Parliament's political groups.
De træder ind i et nyt mødelokale, hvor de mødes med alle formændene for de politiske grupper.
This gives the crucial “political” dimension to the visit.
11,55: Så er det tid til Sarkozy´s officielle tale.
1155 End of the meeting and it is now time for President Sarkozy to address the assembled MEPs in the Parliamentary Chamber.
Pöttering byder endnu en gang præsidenten velkommen i en fuldstændigt fyldt parlamentssal.
He is formally welcomed by President Pöttering, the French President moves over to the lectern to start his speech, and photographers have just two minutes to take photos.
Fotograferne har to minutter til af få taget deres billeder, ikke mere.
Different national journalists look for different things in the 40 minute address.
Så går Sarkozy hen til mikrofonen og holder sin tale.
1240 The speech ends: President Pöttering accompanies President Sarkozy and his staff to the exit where they make their farewells.
12,40: Afslutningstale af Hans-Gert Pöttering, der bagefter følger den franske præsident til udgangen af Europa-Parlamentets bygning.
Mr Brunagel said: “To my colleague from the Elysee, I presented a framed and coloured 19th century engraving of Europe.
Det er tid til at sige farvel.
He presented me with a box.

Tirsdag under EP-samlingen
Tuesday in Plenary: President Sarkozy, Barroso on 2008, Schengen, Emissions
Nicolas Sarkozy taler til Europa-Parlamentet
President Sarkozy: EU integration a "common will"
Sarkozy bekræftede, at det franske engagement i Europa er intakt.
Commission President José Manuel Barroso said that job creation would be among his priorities for 2008.
Barroso fokuserede på vækst og beskæftigelse og en kontrolleret immigrationspolitik.
MEPs debated the Schengen zone - a few weeks before border controls fall in 9 further states.
Endelig var den kommende udvidelse af Schengen-området også på tapetet.
They also backed the inclusion of aviation emissions in the EU's Emissions Trading Scheme.
Sarkozy: "Europa er ikke bare en maskine"
Sarkozy: "Europe is not just a machine"
Den franske præsident Nicolas Sarkozy leverede tirsdag middag i Europa-Parlamentet en tale, hvor han bekræfter det franske engagement i Europa.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy used his midday address to "reaffirm France's commitment to Europe".
Den forenklede traktat løser de institutionelle problemer, men ikke den poliske krise, sagde Sarkozy.
He said that the EU cannot be just an "administrative and legal machine" and said that European integration was a "common will" between people who share a "common civilisation".
Den franske præsident lagde også vægt på, at alle politikker, herunder valutapolitikken, skulle kunne være til debat, og understregede, at Europa skal være i stand til at beskytte sig mod illoyal konkurrence.
He welcomed the new Reform Treaty as a political victory, stressing that Europe had chosen democracy allowing anything to be discussed.
Han sagde, at EU ikke blot skal være "en administrativ og lovgivningsmæssig maskine" og at europæisk integration er en "fælles vilje" blandt mennesker, der deler en "fælles civilisation".
He said that "Europe must ensure it is not perceived as a threat to identities but as a form of protection".
I de 100 år der fulgte, blev der gjort meget for dette - særligt på fransk initiativ.
In remarks welcoming the French leader, EP President Hans-Gert Pöttering paid tribute to President Sarkozy’s commitment to the Constitution and the Reform Treaty.
EU i dag er ingen undtagelse - det er resultatet af Schuman-planen fra 1950," sagde Pöttering.
He also noted the French contribution to European integration, notably through the 1950 Schuman Plan.
Kommissionens arbejdsprogram for 2008
Barroso outlines Commission's 2008 work programme
Kommissionens formand, Manuel Barroso udtrykte stor tilfredshed med resultatet af forhandlingerne om den nye reformtraktat.
Mr Barroso welcomed the conclusion of negotiations over the Reform Treaty and said that Ratification would be vital.
Han sagde, at det nu var vitalt at den blev ratificeret af alle medlemslandene: "Det er nu tid til at vise hvad EU kan tilbyde borgerne op til valgene til Europa-Parlamentet, sagde han.
He told MEPs "it was now time to show citizens what the EU can offer in the run-up to the European parliamentary elections of 2009".
Prioriteterne for 2008 inkluderer blandt andet vækst og beskæftigelse, en kontrolleret immigrationspolitik, samt en styrkelse af EU´s rolle på den globale arena.
Commission priorities for 2008 include: Growth and jobs, Sustainable Europe, Managing migration (especially action to combat illegal trafficking), Putting citizens first, Strengthening the EU's role in the world.
Arbejdsprogrammet er blevet udarbejdet på grundlag af indgående drøftelser med de øvrige institutioner og følger op på mange af de emner, som for nylig blev drøftet under globaliseringsdebatten på Det Europæiske Råds uformelle møde i Lissabon.
MEPs will vote on a resolution on the Commission's work programme in their December session.
MEP´ernes reaktioner
Debate on Schengen: MEPs welcome opening of borders
Hartmut Nassauer (EPP-ED, Tyskland) udtrykte sin støtte til arbejdsprogrammet for 2008.
In the afternoon the House debated the extension of the Schengen system to nine new countries, which will mean no more border controls for land and sea borders by 21 December and air borders by the end of March 2008.
Han fremhævede særligt detn øgede fokus på vækst og beskæftigelse.
It will also allow people from non-EU countries to enter the EU and travel throughout the zone on a single visa.
Han opfodrede Kommissionen til at udnytte de nye instrumenter, som reformtraktaten giver.
MEPs generally welcomed the agreement but expressed their concern about the possible increase of cross-border criminal activities.
Hannes Swoboda (PSE, Østrig) betonede vigtigheden af, at Kommissionen forklarer de 79 forslag ,"ellers spilder vi vores tid", sagde hun.
Parliament's rapporteur, Portuguese MEP Carlos Coelho (EPP-ED), said the agreement by EU ministers marked "one of the greatest successes in the history of EU integration."
Hun slog også til lyd for et "socialt Europa" og vigtigheden af at udvikle den sociale dimension i EU- samarbejdet.
He said however that "work is not finished yet", as there are technical steps some states still have to take to implement Schengen.
Han opfordrede EU til at "sælge" den nye traktat til de nationale parlamenterer.
Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini thanked the EP for its support.
Brian Crowley (UEN, Irland) brugte en stor del af sin taletid på at understrege vigtigheden i at handle korrekt i forhold til de positive og negative aspekter af globaliseringen.
He said the Commission will try to facilitate the improvement of police cooperation and security controls in the Schengen area to prevent criminals from enjoying free movement and better opportunities to act illegally.
Han opfodrede også EU til ikke blot at eksportere nødhjælp, men også værdier som demokrati og tolerance.
See the press service for more on this subject.

Onsdag under EP-samlingen
Wednesday in Plenary: Globalisation, Russia and Bali climate conference
Global opvarmning
Climatic meltdown; MEPs discussed climate change
Hvordan skal Europa opnå fremgang i globaliseringens tidsalder?
The economic and social aspects of globalisation and how it will affect people in the European Union was debated Wednesday morning.
Det var der meget forskellige bud på under Europa-Parlamentets store onsdagsdebat om globalisering.
The day also reports on the problem of soil erosion in Europe and relations with Russia adopted in separate votes.
MEP´er vedtog også betænkninger om beskyttelse af jordbunden og relationerne til Rusland, og de fik mulighed for at stille spørgsmål til Kommissionen og Rådet angående EU´s strategi forud for den store klimakonference på Bali.
Ahead of the December Bali conference on climate change, MEPs questioned the Council and Commission and stressed the need to succeed in negotiating a post-2012 framework on climate change.
Europas strategi i en globaliseret verden
Need for "fair" Globalisation
Onsdagens nøgledebat med Kommissionen og Rådet omhandlede Europas rolle under globaliseringen.
The challenges and possibilities that globalisation present was the subject of a debate between MEPs and representatives of the Council and Commission.
Debatten tog blandt andet udgangspunkt i Kommissionens meddelelse: "Europas interesse: at opnå fremgang i globaliseringens tidsalder".
It comes ahead of the Bali conference where international action to build a post Kyoto future will begin.
Formanden for Kommissionen mente, at EU står godt rustet til at imødekomme de udfordringer, globaliseringen udstikker: "Vi står bedre rustet i verden til at skabe vores model for globalisering.
It also notes that the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund is up and running to provide compensation and financial help for those who may have lost their jobs due to changes in the labour market.
Vi har redskaber, der kan hjælpe os", sagde han.
The Parliament has already approved the use of the fund for redundancies in the car industry in France last July.
Han tilføjede at globaliseringen også var "en mulighed for at sprede EU´s værdier."
Commission President José Manuel Barroso said that "globalisation impinges on all our lives" but should also be seen as "an opportunity for the EU to assert its values".
Han afviste at de sociale fremskridt var en hindring for økonomisk fremskridt: "Sociale fremskridt og økonomisk fremskridt er to sider af samme medalje", sagde han.
The need for a social Europe was stressed by Martin Schulz of the PSE Group.
Han fortsatte: "Kommissærerne må erkende, at en fælles økonomisk politik er nødt til at være baseret på en fælles social politik."
He said that "Commissioners must acknowledge that a common economic policy needs to be based on social policy, including the yardstick of equality of rights around the world".
Graham Watson (ALDE, Storbritannien) mente, at Martin Schultz ord var "fortidens tale".
Graham Watson (Liberal, ALDE) told the House that "India, China and Brazil have caught the wave of opportunity", while "too much of Europe fears the wave crashing over it...it is not citizens we need to convince, it's Member States."
Mens Indien, Kina og Brasilien "rider på den bølge af muligheder, som globaliseringen bringer."
Following on from Wednesday's debate, Parliament will vote on a resolution Thursday.
Ifølge Watson, var det ikke borgerne men derimod EU´s medlemsstater, der skulle overbevises om de positive aspekter af globaliseringen.

Europa-Parlamentet udtrykte stor bekymring over menneskerettighedssituationen i Rusland og vedtog onsdag en beslutning, der understreger at den aktuelle menneskerettighedssituation i Rusland giver anledning til "alvorlig bekymring for så vidt angår respekten for menneskerettigheder, demokrati, ytringsfrihed, samt enkeltpersoners ret til at udfordre myndighederne og stille dem til ansvar for deres handlinger."
Other areas of concern voiced in the resolution include freedom of expression and the rights of civil society and individuals to challenge the authorities.

The resolution also welcomed Russia's bid to join the WTO and initiatives towards visa-free travel between the EU and Russia.
MEP´erne hilste Ruslands ambitioner om at tiltræde WTO velkommen og opfodrede Rusland til at gå konstruktivt ind i det internationale samarbejde om at få løst problemerne vedrørende Kosovo og Iran.

Strategi for Bali-konferencen om klimaændringer
Strategy for the Bali Conference on Climate Change
MEP´erne fik onsdag mulighed for at høre Kommissionen og Rådet angående deres forberedende arbejde forud for den store klimakonference, der finder sted fra den 3 - 14. december 2007.
Ahead of the Bali conference Italian MEP Guido Sacconi (as author of the oral question) opened the debate with the Council and Commission.
