Status over Prodi-Kommissionen:Euro - udvidelse - forfatningstraktat - "Lissabon"
Leyla Zana: Kurds seek a peaceful solution within the territorial integrity of Turkey
De fleste talere var enige om, at Prodi-Kommissionen især vil blive husket for
Welcoming Leyla ZANA to the Chamber, President Josep BORRELL said Parliament was delighted to be able to hear her voice at last.

He praised her refusal to remain silent and her refusal to accept release on health grounds.
EU til den mest videnbaserede og konkurrencedygtige økonomi i verden.
Recalling Parliament's many resolutions demanding her release, he told Mrs Zana that her struggle had contributed to substantial changes in Turkey, such as the end of martial law and the fact that use of Kurdish was no longer banned.
De fleste talere takkede Romano Prodi for samarbejdet i de sidste 5 år, og formanden for den liberale gruppe, skotten Graham Watson sluttede sit indlæg med ordene: "Bravo, Prodi!" .
He praised her call, upon her release, for the Kurdish groups to maintain their cease fire.
Romano Prodi mindede om, at det var sidste gang han talte i Europa-Parlamentet, idet den nye Barroso-Kommission tiltræder den 1. november 2004.
Finally, speaking in Kurdish, the President told her Parliament was honoured by her presence.
Krise 1999: Troværdighed og autoritet Prodi erindrede om, at hans Kommission var tiltrådt i en vanskelig situation i 1999 , hvor Kommissionen var i krise efter begivenhederne i 1998 og 1999 - og hvor Kommissionens troværdighed og autoritet var rystet .
She said that her statement in Kurdish in 1991 as she was sworn in to the Turkish Parliament had been: " I take this oath for the brotherhood of the Kurdish and Turkish people ."
Men den nye Kommission tog udfordringen op og fremlagde en ambitiøs dagsorden for Europa.
She had wanted to draw attention to the fact that peoples, languages and cultures could co-exist in a brotherly fashion.
Og drivkraften bag denne dagsorden var udvidelsen med de nye medlemslande.
She had spent "years behind cold bars and surrounded by deaf and dumb walls," but she was neither broken-hearted, nor reproachful, nor angry.
Amsterdam, Nice og forfatning!
"I had to live through it for the sake of democracy - and I did," she said.
To visioner om Europa stod over for hinanden: 1) visionen om et stærkt, politisk Europa (som er Kommissionens syn) og 2)et svagt Europa.
You have empowered and encouraged the democratic public opinion."
Forfatningstraktaten undertegnes den 29. oktober, og den vil føre til et mere demokratisk og effektivt EU.
She made a passionate appeal for an end to war and violence: "It breaks my heart to see that our children are being lost, in whatever part of the world it may be happening, but first and foremost in my own country.
"Clash of ignorance"!
It is a pain that sears through me."
Prodi pegede på EU's Naboskabs-politik, som tilstræber en ring af gode naboforhold fra Rusland til Marokko.
She said bitter experience had shown that violence breeds more violence and brought no solution.
I en tid hvor mange taler om "clash of civilisations" - som mere er et "clash of ignorance" - har Kommissionen bidraget til interkulturel dialog - især i Euro-Middelhavdområdet.
Policies based on repression, denial, extermination and assimilation had brought about more injustice, more poverty and more misery.
EU støtter multilateralismen , et styrket FN og mindskelse af "kløften" mellem Nord og Syd.
For her, "the language and method of solution of our age is dialogue, compromise and peace.
Kommissionen har arbejdet for at styrke det transatlantiske forhold , bl.a. i kampen mod terrorisme.
She pledged to meet the expectations of her people, her country and democratic public opinion even at the cost of her life.
Euroen er en hovedhjørnesten i det nye EU, og euroen var fra starten et stort politisk projekt - og ikke blot et økonomisk projekt.
"Kurds are determined for a peaceful solution within the territorial integrity of Turkey.
Kommissionen har ønsket at styrke den økonomiske styring i EU og fremlagt forslag om at tilpasse stabilitets- og vækstpagten til de nye økonomiske kendsgerninger.
They are respectful to all values symbolising the Republic of Turkey.
Man har således ønsket at gøre pagten "mere intelligent" , som et fransk dagblad skrev for nylig.
But the government seems to be adamant about not understanding Kurds' sincere initiative that is open to dialogue."
"Lissabon-strategien" Romano Prodi understregede, at Kommissionen har søgt at gennemføre "Lissabon-strategien" , som skal gøre EU til den mest konkurrencedygtige og dynamiske økonomi i verden inden 2010.
Vital steps were to remove the platform of armed conflict and violence, to enable political detainees and exiles back into democratic life and to open up unfettered democratic areas for freedom of thought and association.
EP: Kommissionens demokratiske legitimitet!
But the implementation of these steps still seems cosmetic.
Prodi pegede på det forbedrede forhold mellem Europa-Parlamentet og EU-Kommissionen, og at EP er basis for Kommissionens demokratiske legitimitet .
Mrs Zana called on Europe and the world to recognise the political, social and cultural democratic rights on the more than 40 million Kurds.
Der har været et tæt samspil mellem EP og Kommissionen på lovgivningsområdet, og der har kun været konflikt på ganske få områder.
They should not be used as a bargaining chip in international relations.
Prodi mente, at hans Kommission havde lagt et godt grundlag for det fremtidige samarbejde mellem de to institutioner.
She said that Turkey as an EU member having solved the Kurdish issue would enable 'Western Civilisation' to meet the rich cultural wealth of Mesopotamia, thereby becoming a 'Contemporary Democratic Civilisation' she said.
Parlamentarisme i EU Under den politiske ordførerrunde beklagede formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert PÖTTERING , at Ministerrådet ikke var til stede under denne vigtige debat.
She called upon the Kurdish people to be at peace among themselves, to be democratic, libertarian and cohesive.
Formanden for socialistgruppen, den tyske SPD'er Martin SCHULZ pegede på, at Prodi havde overtaget Kommissionen på et svært tidspunkt.
"We all gaze at the same stars and we are all fellow travellers on the same planet and live under the same sky," she said, quoting Victor Hugo.
Men Prodi havde løsnet spændingerne mellem EP og Kommissionen, og han havde vist respekt for Europa-Parlamentet .
She said her speech was dedicated to the brotherhood and happiness of the Turkish and Kurdish people.
Schulz takkede Prodi for samarbejdet gennem de sidste 5 år.

overhaul of its administration.
Prodi-Kommissionen havde holdt kursen og styrket demokratiet i EU .
he said, and put forward an ambitious agenda.
De grønne deler Prodis holdning til krigen i Irak og beklagede, at EU ikke taler med een stemme, når det gælder fred i verden.
Enlargement Mr Prodi described Europe's unification as " the greatest contribution the Union could make to stabilising and developing the whole continent -- politically, economically and culturally ."
"Mindretallenes Europa"!
"The Convention approach finally won through," he said, "bringing more democracy and more transparency to the Union.
Romano Prodi rundede debatten af.
Never before have two visions of Europe clashed so forcefully.
Han mente, at EU virkelig har lært verden noget i de forløbne 5 år.
The vision of a stronger, political Europe that can cope with the global challenges before us.
Vi har vist, at man kan gøre fremskridt - uden at bruge magt .
And another of a weak Europe, a mere area of prosperity, stability and regulation -- not a genuine political actor."
EU har ydet et interessant bidrag til en globaliseret verden inden for økonomi og miljø.
His Commission, he said, had worked consistently to make the EU stronger, more democratic, more effective and more efficient.
Prodi havde lige været i Kaukasus, og her stod de nationale flag ved siden af EU-flaget, fordi EU ikke er nogen kolonimagt, som vil påtvinge andre noget .
Reforming the Commission Mr Prodi stressed that political change had to go hand in hand with in-depth reform of the administrative structures and workings - positive effects of the reforms were already being felt.
Vi er "mindretallenes Europa" !
"But above all," he said, "the reform sent strong political messages and sought to ensure the Commission regained its legitimacy, independence and effectiveness."
Det er fremover nødvendigt med et stærkt Europa-Parlament og en stærk EU-Kommission, hvis vi vil nå vore fælles målsætninger, sluttede Prodi sin sidste tale i EP.
He spoke of the rotation of directors-general and ending the practice of filling posts in particular departments with officials of particular nationalities.
I 1995 blev den kurdiske menneskerettighedsforkæmper Leyla Zana tildelt Europa-Parlamentets Sakharov-pris .
"I was lucky I had a highly professional team to rely on, a team that has pulled together and worked in harmony."
Men hun var ikke i stand til at møde op i Strasbourg i december 1995, da hun var fængslet i Tyrkiet.
Europe in the world The aim of enlarging the EU had not been to "to shift the divide -- the Wall -- a few hundred kilometres further east or south" he said.
Men den 14. oktober 2004 mødte Leyla Zana op i Europa-parlamentet i Bruxelles for at holde en tale til EP.
For the first time there was a new vision of the Union's borders through the European Neighbourhood Policy, which seeks to establish a genuine special relationship with the whole ring of countries stretching from Russia to Morocco.
Den spanske EP-formand Josep BORRELL sagde i sin velkomsttale, at dette var en særlig dag for EP, og man var glad for endelig at høre Leyla Zana.
"At a time when so many speak of a 'clash of civilisations' -- though I for one am convinced it is more of a 'clash of ignorance' -- we have given strong impetus to fostering intercultural dialogue and mutual knowledge, in particular in the Euro-Mediterranean area," he said.
Hun blev dømt til 15 års fængsel af Sikkerhedsdomstolen i Ankara , fordi hun ikke ville tie stille.
The euro and the new economic and social agenda From the start, he said, the euro was intended to underpin the new Europe: "That is why we saw the euro as a great political project from the outset -- not just an economic one.
Men hendes kamp har ikke været forgæves, fx. er det ikke længere krigsretten, der gælder i Tyrkiet.
A project for political leaders, not just for central bankers.
Den 9. juni 2004 valgte appelretten at lade Leyla Zana gå fri.
A project that calls for vision, authority and coordination."
Josep Borrell fastslog, at Leyla Zana var dømt for at bruge sit kurdiske sprog i det tyrkiske parlament .
The Commission had continually stressed the need to step up economic governance: "That is why we have made various proposals to adapt the Stability and Growth Pact to the new needs and the new economic facts of today's Europe.
Han sluttede sin velkomsttale med på kurdisk at sige: - "Det er en ære for os, at de er til stede i EP!".
And why we opened a debate that many felt was necessary but did not have the courage to say so."
Broderskab: Sprog og kultur!
He listed various measures intended to ensure the success of the Lisbon strategy, including the European Research Area, the focus on innovation in enterprises and the information society, the new education and training programmes for lifelong learning, the opening-up of Europe's universities to the world as well as the reform of competition policy.
Det var årsagen til hendes fængselsstraf, men hun havde gjort det for, at kurdisk og tyrkisk kunne leve sammen.
Above all, we have not managed to meet targets where the Community method could not be applied and decisions had to be unanimous," he added, citing the linguistic delays to the Community Patent.
Mit mål er at understrege broderskabet mellem folks sprog og deres kultur .
"If the Member States do not behave differently, the Lisbon strategy is at risk."
Hun takkede EP for dets solidaritet under hendes lange fængselsophold.
He also praised the introduction of " farm-to-fork " strategy to restore confidence in agriculture.
Sakharov-prisen er ikke kun til mig - men også til kurderne og Tyrkiet, fastslog Leyla Zana.
"The common agricultural policy has been reformed to meet the new challenges, both domestic and global, to apply a more sustainable strategy that pays greater heed to rural development."
Den tyrkiske regering bør sætte det kurdiske spørgsmål på dagsordenen .
He hoped these good relations would be maintained in the future.
Kurderne ønsker en fredelig løsning inden for Tyrkiets territorium, men den tyrkiske regering vil ikke forstå dette!
"If this is the case," he said, "it will mean the outgoing Commission has not only built up the relationship with Parliament but has also laid the foundations for further strengthening of democracy in Europe."
De demokratiske skridt i Tyrkiet er kun kosmetik, fastslog Leyla Zana.
Finally, he made this declaration: "I am firmly convinced of the need for even more 'Europe' and even more 'Union' in Europe.
Kurderne bør anerkendes og beskyttes.
The European political project needs our full commitment and it needs all our strength, conviction and courage to make it succeed.
40 millioner kurderes rettigheder bør respekteres! , sluttede Leyla sin tale i EP i Bruxelles.
Over the last five years, that is what we have done."
Konstitutionelle anliggender
Reactions from President Borrell and the political groups
Ratifikation af forfatningstraktaten:Tidsplan og kommunikationsstrategi?
Parliament President Josep BORRELL offered the thanks of the European Parliament for the Commission's work, starting from difficult position, but managing a series of truly historic events: the introduction of the euro, the largest ever enlargement and the drafting of the constitutional treaty.
Forslag til beslutning af Jo LEINEN (PSE, DE)
There were many items on the positive side of the Commission's balance sheet, he said, but a particular one was its continual willingness to listen to and engage with Parliament.
Procedure: den ikke lovgivningsmæssige procedure
The leader of the EPP-ED group, Hans-Gert POETTERING (DE) said he regretted that the whole Commission was not present for this debate.
Under EP-samlingen i Bruxelles torsdag den 14. oktober 2004 vedtog EP et forslag til beslutning fra EP's forfatningsudvalg, som var udarbejdet af Jo Leinen.
The Parliament was the Commission's ally, but also responsible for monitoring and controlling.
EP fastslår, at Europa-Parlamentet vil afgive sin udtalelse om udkastet til forfatningstraktat hurtigst muligt efter undertegnelsen i Rom den 29. oktober.
The framework agreement between the institutions had been a significant strengthening of parliamentary democracy in the EU, and the new Commission should be bound by it too.
(Red.: Det bliver under EP-samlingen i Strasbourg 13.-16. december 2004!).
He mentioned enlargement as a particular achievement, and one that his group had long advocated.
EP anmoder Rådet om at udforme en samordnet fremgangsmåde for den tidsmæssige planlægning af de nationale ratifikationsprocedurer og om i fællesskab at udvikle den bedste praksis for parlamentarisk kontrol og folkeafstemningskampagner.
His group were not entirely happy with the balance struck on the REACH chemical proposals - here ecology and economy had to go together, he said.
EP foreslår, at man kunne vælge perioden 5.-8. maj 2005 som en passende periode til at holde de folkeafstemninger om forfatningen, der er planlagt i medlemslandene.
He also argued that the Commission had lost effectiveness through Mr Prodi having concentrated too much on Italian politics.
Denne periode ville være af symbolsk værdi - både for freden i Europa og for Europas opbygning.
The overall view, however, was positive and he wished Mr Prodi well for future personal success.
Man mener, at det er væsentligt, at man understreger den europæiske dimension ved de nationale ratifikationsprocedurer for at styrke en fælles følelse af social samhørighed over hele Europa.
The new, greater respect shown for Parliament was a milestone in EU history, he said.
På den baggrund opfordrer man Rådet og Kommissionen til at udarbejde en "passende kampagne- og kommunikationsstrategi" - og man erklærer sig rede til at bidrage til denne strategi.
Mr Schulz said this was a yardstick for measuring the next Commission.
EP understreger, at forfatningstraktaten bør forelægges på den klareste, retfærdigste og mest forståelige måde for Europas borgere - med tydelig angivelse af de regler, der allerede er trådt i kraft, og fremhævelse af nye bestemmelser.
He was also grateful, he said, for Mr Prodi's "visionary" stance on the Iraq war, when he had argued that recourse to arms should always be a last resort.
Corbett/Mendez de Vigo-betænkningen I EP's forfatningsudvalg er det britiske labourmedlem Richard CORBETT og den spanske PPE'er Inigo MENDEZ DE VIGO undervejs med en betænkning om forfatningstraktaten, som skal behandles under EP-samlingen i Strasbourg 13.-16. december 2004.
There were many achievements in the large view: enlargement, the euro, Lisbon, work on a common European security policy and internal reform.
I udkastet til betænkning fastslår de 2 ordførere, at EU i løbet af sin historie har formået at skabe et stadigt voksende område med frihed, fred, velstand, retfærdighed og sikkerhed , og at forfatningsudkastet konsoliderer disse resultater - og gør dem mere håndgribelige for borgerne i Europa og den øvrige verden.
While the work putting the Commission's house in order was not finished, Neil KINNOCK 's work had provided a firm foothold for reform.
Corbett/Mendez de Vigo understreger, at store dele af forfatningsudkastet kodificerer reglerne i de allerede eksisterende EU-traktater, men det indeholder også institutionelle nyskabelser, som er en forudsætning for at kunne opretholde og udvikle et EU med 25 og muligvis flere medlemslande til de europæiske borgeres fordel.
The Commission, he said, had maintained a productive and respectful relationship with Parliament, something Mr Barroso should aim to emulate.
(Red: Bulgarien, Rumænien og Kroatien står på spring, og i december 2004 skal EU's stats- og regeringschefer tage stilling til, om man vil indlede optagelsesforhandlinger med Tyrkiet - på baggrund af Kommissions Tyrkiet-rapport af 6. oktober).
On economic reform and the internal market, he praised the work in particular of Frits BOLKESTEIN : the fault in any failure in meeting the Lisbon goals would lie with the Member States.
Mere komplicerede flertalsregler!
He summed up his judgement with a single word of Italian: "bravo!"
De 2 ordførere konstaterer, at størstedelen af Konventets udkast forblev intakt ved den efterfølgende regeringskonference.
For the Greens/EFA group, Monica FRASSONI (IT) said that despite the ups and downs, she and her group would miss Mr Prodi's Commission and some of its members - perhaps a worrying sign for the future.
Regeringskonferencen vedtog dog nogle ændringer - der ikke alle kan betragtes som positive! - såsom den øgede kompleksitet i reglerne for kvalificeret flertal i EU's Ministerråd.
She too praised Mr Prodi's stance on Iraq and in standing up to the larger Member States on the size of the EU's future budget.
