Borrel håbede, at MEP'erne ville støtte ratificeringen af forfatningstraktaten - især i de lande, der skal have folkeafstemning.

Pressekonference i EP:Josep Borrell
Josep BORRELL said that he was part of the generation which had helped Spain to democracy.
Efter at den spanske socialist Josep BORRELL var blevet valgt til formand for Europa-Parlamentet den 20. juli 2004 holdt han en pressekonference i EP's pressesal i Strasbourg, hvor journalisterne var mødt talrigt op.
He had been a trade union activist and shop steward, before being elected to the national Parliament of Spain and serving for 12 years as a minister.
Under pressekonferencen understregede Borrell, at det er meget vigtigt for Europa-Parlamentet at have et godt samarbejde med medierne .
He had been a member of the Convention and had represented Spain in various formations of the Council of Ministers, on occasions losing battles in the Council, only to see his position reinstated by Parliament.
Det er et stort problem, som EP ikke kan løse alene.
All the Member States had been new at one time.
EU og EP påvirker borgernes dagligdag, men det er måske nødvendigt at bruge et andet sprog, som almindelige borgere kan forstå.
The importance of reunifying Europe was in ending the legacy of Hitler and Stalin.
Forfatningstraktaten Josep Borrell understregede betydningen af, at vi får ratificeret forfatningstraktaten i alle EU-lande, og han pegede på, at hans eget land Spanien, bliver et af de første lande, der holder folkeafstemning om forfatningstraktaten.
To make this reunification a reality would take hard work, and he said he would make it work in the now more complicated linguistic setting of the European Parliament, so Parliament could carry out its work in transparency, dignity and effectiveness.
Folkeafstemningen bør ikke blive til et spørgsmål om en tillidsafstemning til den siddende regering, hvilket EU-afstemninger ofte er.
His first priority would be to work on relations with the Council.
Dette skal være en folkeafstemning om Europa, og den nationale dimension må ud af valgkampen.
The European project, he said, suffered from a triple problem of size, legitimacy and effectiveness.
En journalist fra Letland spurgte, om de små lande nu kan gøre sig gældende i det udvidede EU, og Josep Borrell svarede, at EU bygger på demokrati, hvor størrelsen ikke er så vigtig.
We need, he said, to build institutions based on the citizenship which we represent.
Formanden for EU-Kommissionen italieneren Romani PRODI lykønskede Borrell med formandsposten og understregede, at Borrells erfaringer vil garantere et solidt formandsskab for EP.
He promised to represent the diversity of Parliament and defend its role before the other institutions.
Han opfordrede Borrell til at fortsætte og udbygge det tætte samarbejde med Kommissionen.
He concluded that Europe was a long term project: its future crises would be no harder to deal with than those overcome in the past.
Under ordførerrunden fremhævede Hans-Gert PÖTTERING (PPE-DE, D), at valget af Borrell som formand for EP skal sikre stabilitet.
We should, he said, inspire the people of Europe to write a new page in the history of peace.
Herunder appellerede Pöttering til, at EP fastholder sit ansvar og sikrer stabilitet ved på torsdag at stemme for portugiseren José Manuel DURAO BARROSO som ny Kommissionsformand.
The second candidate to address the House, Professor GEREMEK underlined that he came from a country that had suffered " all the dramas of the twentieth century ", a country which had been the first to start the movement against totalitarianism in central Europe.
Watson betegnede alliancen som "en unaturlig alliance, der ellers kun finder sted i krise- eller krigstider".
Professor Geremek stated that he had many friends in all the political groups and thanked them for their support in Poland's struggle for freedom.
Endelig sagde Watson, at borgerne i EU er "dødtrætte af aftaler, der finder sted i baglokalerne".
Quoting Martin Luther King, he stated, " there is no politics without the initial dream " and said that he planned to build a Europe of solidarity.
Valg af EP's formand:Åbning af Aldersformanden
As the new President of Parliament, he said he would lead a strategic debate on Europe.
Berlinguer fremhævede, at Europa har udviklet sig fra at være et kul- og stålfællesskab til at blive et socialt EU, der integrerer borgerne og værner om de europæiske nationer.
Francis WURTZ , the last candidate to address the House, said that the European institutions were not considered favourably by the peoples of Europe.
Efter indledningen forklarede Berlinguer de valgtekniske aspekter i forbindelse med valget af EP's formand.
The election of the President of Parliament is conducted by secret ballot, using ballot boxes rather than the electronic voting system.
Herunder præsenterede han de tre kandidater til formandsposten, nemlig spanieren Josep BORRELL (PSE), polakken Bronislaw GEREMEK (ALDE) og franskmanden Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL).
According to the rules, to be elected a candidate requires an absolute majority of the votes cast in one of the first three rounds of voting.
Endelig blev 8 medlemmer udpeget til at være valgtilforordnede.
If no-one is elected in the third round, a fourth ballot is held, confined to the two Members who have obtained the highest number of votes in the third ballot.
*ALDE = Gruppen Alliancen af Liberale og Demokrater for Europa **IND/DEM = Gruppen for Uafhængighed og Demokrati
The results of the first round of voting were as follows:
Borrell fastslog, at han var både spanier og europæer, ligesom han var catalonier.
Address by newly elected President
Josep Borrell understregede, at vi gennem transparens, værdighed og effektivitet skal fjerne de "skyggezoner", som stiller Europa-Parlamentet i et dårligt lys.
The newly elected President of Parliament, Josep BORRELL FONTELLES said his first words would be of gratitude and of commitment for the future.
Forfatningstraktaten er det bedste svar på Europas problemer, - for uden den er vi bare et stort marked.
He thanked Mr Berlinguer for managing the opening session.
Alle medlemmer af Europa-Parlamentet bør derfor arbejde for at få ratificeret forfatningstraktaten.
He thanked the other candidates for taking part and looked forward to working with them in a spirit of genuine and positive cooperation to make best use of their experience.
Borrell fastslog, at EU er et langsigtet projekt, som må tilpasses hen ad vejen, og han ville arbejde for et dynamisk Europa-Parlament .
Mr Borrell said he was happy to work with those who had not voted for him, but he thanked those who had given him their support, in particular the Socialist group which had nominated him.
EP: Debatforum om Europas fremtid!
He felt he had the necessary legitimacy to guide Parliament's work.
Kandidaten for ALDE-gruppe - den nydannede liberale gruppe - den tidligere polske udenrigsminister Bronislaw GEREMEK henviste til Martin Luther King, som havde sagt, at man ikke kan føre politik uden at have en drøm.
He paid tribute to the work of his predecessor, Pat Cox, who had, he said, had a brilliant presidency, active in representing the whole of Parliament and ensuring it had a salient profile as an institution.
Det var Geremeks drøm at skabe et Europa præget af solidaritet , og Europa-Parlamentet skal være et symbol på et sådant Europa.
The setting up of the Convention reflected in part Pat Cox's efforts to oppose a drift to intergovernmentalism in the EU.
Bronislaw Geremek pegede på, at der er mange "euro-skeptikere" , og at Europa-Parlamentet bør være et debatforum om Europas fremtid .
He also gave his thanks to all the MEPs who had taken part in the Convention and in the IGC, before finally giving a particular welcome to the MEPs from the ten new Member States, who, he hoped, would soon be joined by members from Romania and Bulgaria.
EP skal spille en politisk rolle.
This was a moment full of emotion, he said, and his role was a huge responsibility.
I Europa-Parlamentet skal alle "politiske familier" føre en strategisk og konstruktiv debat, sluttede Geremek.
The President said he would make a full statement of his plans in September, after time for consultation with the various leaders in Parliament.
Virvar og krigseventyr Formandskandidaten for GUE-gruppen, den franske kommunist Francis WURTZ pegede på, at der i årevis havde været virvar på den politiske scene , og at fx. den daværende spanske premierminister havde støttet George W. Bush i hans krigseventyr .
Mr Borrell was then congratulated by Commission President Romano Prodi, who called in particular for the Parliament to fulfil its paradigm role in bringing the EU institutions closer to the lives of the citizens of Europe.
Wurtz fastslog, at der er en kløft mellem fremtidskræfterne og højrekræfterne.
The deal between the EPP-ED group and the PES group on the EP Presidency was, however, criticised by the speakers from the other groups.
Wurtz sluttede med at fastslå, at hans gruppe respekterede Geremek, men man kunne ikke støtte ham.
In 1982, Josep Borrell was elected General Secretary of Budget and Public Spending within Spain's Finance Ministry.
Valg af EP-formand
Two years later he was appointed State Secretary of Finances.
"Først vælges formanden.
In 1991, Borrell was appointed Minister of State Construction, Transport and Environment.
Kandidaterne skal før hver valgrunde forelægges for aldersformanden, som bekendtgør dem for Parlamentet.
In 1999, Josep Borrell was elected Chairman of the Mixed Commission of Congress-Senate for the European Union, and in 2000 he was re-elected to occupy the same post.
Har ingen kandidat efter tre valgrunder opnået absolut flertal af de afgivne stemmer, kan kun de to medlemmer, der ved tredje valgrunde har opnået det største antal stemmer, være kandidater ved fjerde valgrunde. ...
In 2002, he was elected representative of the Spanish Parliament in the 2004 European Convention to debate the future of the European Union.
Kun den valgte formand kan holde en åbningstale."

Valg af 14 EP-næstformænd
Since the number of candidates was the same as the number of posts, the President declared all 14 elected by acclaim.
Tirsdag den 20. juli 2004 valgte Europa-Parlamentet 14 EP-næstformænd for de næste 2 ½ år.
A vote by secret ballot was then held to establish the order of precedence of the Vice-Presidents.

Formandskandidat Jose Manuel Barroso:Behov for stærk, uafhængig Kommission!
Control of migration flows is therefore necessary, and we can only do that together.
- "EU har behov for en stærk, uafhængig EU-Kommission, hvis hovedopgave det er at skabe konsensus i EU.
The Agency for the management of external borders is vitally important must become operational in 2005 ."
Kommissionen skal være den "ærlige mægler" ("honest broker") i EU" .
On the new financial perspective, he said negotiations should be concluded in 2005. "
EU er således et partnerskab for velstand, solidaritet og sikkerhed , fastslog Barroso.
As a result of the most recent enlargement, the EU has gained not only new members, but also new neighbours.
"Euro-apatien" Hver dag må vi argumentere for EU og fremvise EU's konkrete resultater.
The Barcelona process must be strengthened and intensified ."
Det EU gør skal gøres godt, og vi skal koncentrere os om de vigtigste ting.
In Africa in particular, poverty, conflicts and epidemics are taking a heavy toll.
Ratificering af forfatningstraktaten er vor næste store udfordring.
The EU must remain active there, not only in terms of relief work but also in a political sense.
Forfatningstraktaten øger demokratiet - EP får bl.a. styrket sine beføjelser - og effektiviteten øges.
Apart from Darfur, the EU would continue to devote its energies to combating HIV and AIDS and preventing conflict in Africa.
Fyre kommissær!
They must also live on in people's minds and hearts.
Jose Manuel Barroso understregede, at der er behov for et positivt samarbejde mellem Europa-Parlamentet og EU-Kommissionen , og han lovede et tæt og åbent samarbejde med EP.
Specifically, the Presidency would devote a number of meetings to that subject and develop initiatives to stimulate discussion of European affairs with Europe's citizens.
Barroso lovede EP 3 ting:
" Perhaps I can give the final word to just such a citizen.
Hvis en kommissær ikke er på højde med sin opgave, vil Barroso kræve hans afsked,
One of the subjects is Ilma Kaulina, a 39-year-old graphic designer from Riga.
Barroso vil give EP alle nødvendige oplysninger, også dokumenter som er sendt til andre institutioner og
If you overlook the cultural differences, you can see that together we have the prospect of a better social and economic future.
Barroso vil føre en regelmæssig dialog med EP og regelmæssigt møde op i EP's formandskonference.
Together with you, the Netherlands Presidency will do everything in its power not to disappoint Ilma Kaulina from Riga. "
Kommissionen er således kun effektiv med Europa-Parlamentets støtte , fastslog formandskandidaten.
The present Commission, he said, was an extraordinary team, one of which every European citizen can be proud.
Jose Manuel Barroso fastslog, at EU er mere end et marked, og at det sociale og kulturelle skal med.
In its five years in office, said Mr Prodi, the Commission also promoted economic and social renewal in the EU through commitments to ensure macroeconomic stability and unstinting efforts to create the conditions for future growth.
Der skal være social beskyttelse, og vi skal sikre den aldrende befolkning.
It would be premature to reveal the contents of the report, but I can say that we are collecting analyses, facts and evidence at every level.
Det afgørende er at udvidelsen og EU bliver en succes, sluttede Barroso.
Total impartiality is what we owe our young people, our fellow citizens and the Turkish people who hope to join us ."
Uforbeholden støtte til Barroso Hans-Gert PÖTTERING (PPE-DE, DE) indledte ordførerrunden med at tilkendegive sin uforbeholdne støtte til José Manuel Barroso.
Responding for the EPP-ED group, Hans-Gert POETTERING (DE) gave a warm welcome to the Dutch presidency, saying its most important task would be to complete the process of enlargement.
Pöttering omtalte Portugal som et land i Europas hjerte og udtrykte tillid til, at Barroso vil formå at samle og tjene Europa.
If people across Europe were willing to learn from each other, successes could be scored.
Pöttering roste Barroso for hans ambition om at blive en stærk og uafhængig Kommissionsformand, der samtidig vil samarbejde tæt med EP.
He said the top priority for his group was the ratification of the Constitution - and the presidency had its part to play.
Endelig sagde Pöttering, at PPE-gruppen forventer, at Barroso møder op i EP, når huset kræver det.
He also welcomed the commitment to increase support for research to prevent young scientists leaving the EU.
Sikre et socialt Europa?
Regarding Turkey, he said the criteria must be respected.
Martin SCHULZ (PSE, DE) stillede en række spørgsmål til Barroso.
The leader of the Socialist group, Martin SCHULZ (DE) noted Mr Balkenende's plans to put the Lisbon process at the heart of his plans.
Schulz fremhævede, at proceduren bag udpegelsen af Barroso er uacceptabel og understregede, at dette ikke vil kunne gentage sig, hvis forfatningstraktaten realiseres.
To be able to reconcile a Muslim society with the EU's values of freedom, democracy and solidarity would refute the theories of Bin Laden - this was a precious prize.
En pilot med hænderne på styret?
The EU needed to stand up to challenge the US on these issues as an equal.
Watson tilkendegav, at ALDE-gruppen vil stemme for Barroso, hvis han vil følge denne linje.
Finally, he called for better gender balance at the Commission, which was a matter for the Council: at least a third of the new Commission should be women, he said.
Et stort skuespil Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Verts/ALE, DE) betegnede den forudgående debat som et skuespil fyldt med floskler.
Monica FRASSONI (IT), for the Greens/EFA group, stated that the two priorities for the Dutch Presidency should be the new financial perspective and assessing Turkey's progress towards opening accession negotiations.
Han fremhævede, at den grønne gruppe vil have en politisk leder, der formår at svare på de spørgsmål han bliver stillet.
She also regretted the letter from the net contributors to the EU budget which proposed reducing EU spending.
Frygt for overdreven liberalisme Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, FR) stillede spørgsmålstegn ved Barrosos politiske linje, idet han henviste til Barrosos reformer i Portugal.
Francis WURTZ (FR), for the GUE/NGL group, stated that he opposed the proposed directive on the liberalising of services as he said that it would lead to social dumping.
Wurtz fremhævede, at EU skal være et Europa, der er solidarisk med hele verden og at man skal se længere og videre end blot til markedet.
Mr Wurtz also stated that it would be difficult for the Stability and Growth Pact to be reformed and that countries which spent large sums on pensions would, he said, be penalised.
Han fremhævede Kommissionsformand Prodis vilje til åbenhed og aktindsigt og kritiserede Barroso for ikke at udvise samme vilje.
In effect, due to the holidays, the Presidency would only last for some three and a half months and therefore priority would be given to the legislative process.
Bonde understregede, at hans gruppe fortsat vil være i kritisk opposition og arbejde for fuld indsigt i lovgivningsprocessen.
On Turkey, the Prime Minister stated that the Copenhagen Criteria would be applied consistently.
Endelig tilkendegav Muscardini sin støtte til Barroso og opfordrede ham til at arbejde for at gøre EU nærværende for borgerne.
On the Financial Perspective proposals, he asked the Council presidency in particular to bear in mind that the Commission had made colossal efforts to ask for the minimum possible amount needed to achieve the tasks the Member States had set for it.
