Det er alle kvinder i Europa — og den aktive rolle, som mange af dem spiller — jeg vil nævne med taknemmelighed gennem dem.
I would also like to pay tribute to the memory of Mrs Louise Weiss, a great and famous European, who gave this inaugural speech in 1979 and 1982.
Samme år skabte Marshall-planen en forpligtelse til samarbejde mellem de europæiske lande.
In the same year the Marshall plan created the necessity for entente between the European countries.
Første skridt var oprettelsen af den europæiske organisation for økonomisk samarbejde, hvis første generalsekretær var Robert Marjolin.
The first step was the creation of the Organization for European Economic Cooperation whose first Secretary-General was Robert Marjolin.
Men Jean Monnets fantasi og energi muliggjorde dristigere og ganske nyskabende projekter, der konkretiseredes i Paris-traktaten om oprettelse af Det europæiske Kul- og Stålfællesskab i 1951, fulgt fire år senere af Messina-konferencen og derefter af Rom-traktaterne.
But the imagination and energy of Jean Monnet gave birth to bolder and very original projects which were crystallized in the Treaty of Paris establishing the European Coal and Steel Community in 1951, followed four years later by the Messina Conference and subsequently by the Rome Treaties.
Hvor mange møder afholdt vi ikke i halvtredserne overalt i vore lande i skolegårde, i små lokaler, der ikke altid var fulde, hvorefter vi sad og ventede i timevis i de kolde banegårdshaller?
How many meetings did we hold in the 1950s in the four corners of our regions, in school playgrounds and little halls which were not always full, followed by long waits in draughty stations?
Vi var nødt til at tale om Europa.
We had to talk about Europe.
Endelig vil jeg i min egenskab af international næst formand for Europabevægelsen af hele mit hjerte tak ke alle forkæmpere for Europa fra vore respektive lande.
In my capacity as International Vice-President of the European Movement I would like, finally, to thank from the bottom of my heart all the European activists of our respective countries.
Skønt de har arbejdet under vanskelige og næsten umulige betingelser, har de i lang tid kæmpet med opofrelse og ildhu.
Often working in difficult and humble conditions, theirs has been a long and selfless fight for the Europe in which they believe.
Det er for en stor del deres fortjeneste, at Europa-Parlamentet nu vælges ved di rekte valg, hvilket er fundamentalt for den europæiske opbygning.
The election of our European Parliament by universal suffrage, a fundamental stage in the construction of Europe, is something which we largely owe to them.
Det må vi ikke glemme. Vi må lytte til dem.
Let us not forget this.
Vi må knytte dem til vort arbejde.
Let us associate them with our work.
Jeg nævnte for lidt siden mit tidligere liv; selv om mine mange år i politik og et stadigt engagement som forkæmper for Europa ikke kan skilles fra hinanden, vil jeg bestræbe mig på ikke at fortabe mig i min der.
I referred just now to my personal history: although my long career in Parliament and constant commit
En af de ting, der glædede mig mest, var undertegnelsen af den fransk-tyske aftale, der var et resultat af forbundskansler Adenauer og general de Gaulles fælles indsats.
We had to convince public opinion of the need for people who had hardly finished tearing each other to pieces to seek reconciliation and unity.

Deres tilstedeværelse vil vidne om den solidaritet og forståelse, der findes mellem de frie og demokratiske lande, hvis tal desværre er så beskedent i vor ver den.
greatest joys was the signature of the Franco-German Treaty which sprang from the joint volition of Chancellor Adenauer and General de Gaulle.
Men denne ekspansion var truet : det første faresignal var, at dollarens guldindløselighed blev opgivet, og senere kom oliechokene.
There are blockages but some of them were very recently removed at Fontainebleau and we should congratulate the European Council and its President on this.
Europa må i øvrigt aldrig glemme, at der på den anden side af jerntæppet findes en række nationer med samme kultur, med de samme traditioner, som det gennem historien er knyttet til. Vi må ikke glem me dem.
Let us remember the Horatii and Curiatii families and let us not repeat the successive single combats which deprived the Curiatii family of a victory which they should not have allowed to slip out of their hands.
Her vil jeg gerne i hast indskyde en parentes og sige, at det klassiske middel deflation, der fører til nedgang i købekraften og dermed til sociale problemer, ikke nødvendigvis er det bedste og eneste middel til be kæmpelse af inflation.
Their presence will be a sign of the solidarity and understanding between the family of free and democratic countries which is unfortunately not so large in our contemporary world.
Men fremskridtet i Europa er på ingen måde begrænset til udvidelsen.
At that time the Community was going through a period of particularly strong expansion which made it a leader in world trade and enabled it to attain a considerable improvement in its standards of living with a very high employment level.
Takket være det nuværende europæiske monetære system, der ganske vist er ufuldstændigt, er det lykke des at undgå alt for bratte og alvorlige udsving.
But this expansion was threatened: the first sign of alarm was the removal of the gold convertibility of the dollar and consequently the oil price rises.
Desuden har institutionerne, der er inspireret af Jean Monnet, for hvem forhindringer var en yderligere ansporing til at handle, gjort fremskridt:
The question at the time was whether Europe would be solid enough to resist the enormous economic upheaval which was disrupting our society and was aggravated by the sudden discovery of Japan's industrial power and competition from new industries, particularly in the Asian countries. tries.
Og er det ikke et besynderligt paradoks, der kan få alvorlige følger, at Europa på den ene side har millioner af arbejdsløse og på den anden side vækker for håbninger i udviklingslandene, der alt for ofte gøres til skamme?
On the other hand Europe must never forget that on the other side of the Iron Curtain there are nations which share the same culture and same traditions and with which it has historical links.
Det vil blive nødvendigt — måske hurtigere end man tror — at revidere det internationale valutasystem, hvis man ønsker at sikre alle folk deres legitime adgang til de goder, som denne nye teknologiske revolution bringer.
The radical technological changes dating from hardly ten years ago and Europe's vulnerability as regards energy supplies and the monetary problem are the causes of unemployment and inflation, which are dramatic problems that Europe must overcome.
Men trods de alvorlige vanskeligheder, der gør de europæiske enhedsbestræbelser mere nødvendige end nogen sinde, har skibet Europa klaret pynten og trodset stormen.
Here I would like to interpose rapidly that the classical solution of deflation, which generates a drop in purchasing power and thus social troubles, is not necessarily the best and only way of fighting inflation.
— vort Parlament selv vælges ved almindelige direkte valg, selv om kravet om en ensartet valgmåde endnu ikke er blevet opfyldt.
However, the progress of Europe has by no means been confined to enlargement.
Endvidere er der flere og flere officielle stemmer, som kræver indførelsen af en fælles forsvarspolitik.
The present European Monetary System, though incomplete, has made it possible, in many cases, for sudden and serious currency fluctuations to be avoided.
Tværtimod findes der i hvert enkelt af vore lande ansvarsfulde statsmænd, der utvetydigt erklærer, at kun et forenet Europa har chancer for at overvinde krisen.
On the one hand once prosperous factories which are now shut down and the destruction of agricultural produce and on the other impoverished countries without resources where hunger is rife.
I august 1954, medens jeg var senator, sad jeg på en café i selskab med nu afdøde Raymond Cartier over for et stort parisisk ugeblad.
Moreover, the institutions, created thanks to the inspiration of Jean Monnet, for whom obstacles were an incitement to greater effort, have made much progress: gress:
Jeg husker, at jeg græd, da jeg så resultatet af afstemningen i nationalforsamlingen om afvisning af forslaget, hvorved al videre debat blev forhindret.
— the Court of Justice, strengthened by its own wisdom, now enforces Community law in each of our countries,
Lad os huske Horatierne og Curatierne og lad os ikke gentage de successive enkeltkampe, der berøvede Curatierne den sejr, der burde være blevet dem til del. Ingen af vore lande kan levere et slag både inden for den økonomiske sektor og på forsvarsområdet.
In the future, and perhaps earlier than we think, there will have to be a review of the world monetary system if we are to allow everyone legitimate access to the benefits accruing from this new technological revolution. tion.
nes interne sikkerhed og folkenes eksterne sikkerhed er uløseligt forbundet, og det er klart, at visse former for terrorisme søger at gøre det demokratiske Europa ustabilt.
But if the European message has too often been misunderstood, we must also take some share of the blame ourselves, because a purely economic Europe which concerns itself exclusively with commercial interests — tomatoes, wine etc. — can secure the com mitment only of those directly concerned by such matters but not that of the general public.
Europa-Parlamentet har sagt det gentagne gange, men vi ønsker at sige det igen med eftertryk : denne terrorisme må være vor første fjende, for den er Europas første fjende.
How can we expect to have the support of our peoples, and our young people in particular, when all they are offered is a commercial Europe which seems to have abandoned its role as a force for equilibrium and peace in the world?
Generelt må alt, hvad der går i retning af at skabe en følelse af europæisk tilhørsforhold, fremmes.
Furthermore, increasing numbers of people in positions of authority have been calling for a common defence policy.
I mit borgmesterkontor i Rambouillet har jeg længe haft en lille tavle med inskriften: Gør det rette og lad folk sige, hvad de vil. Nej, gør det rette og lad folk få at vide.
What sweet music this is in the ears of one who still has painful memories of the failure of the plan for a European army which I continue to believe would have changed many things.
Lad os give europæerne besked om de konkrete for anstaltninger, der ændrer deres daglige liv.
We must take great care to ensure that a chasm does not open up between Europe and the peoples of which it is composed, for their support is essential if we are to progress further.
Selv om jeg måske chokerer nogle af de tilstedeværende, mener jeg ikke at kunne forbigå et af de største problemer i vor tid.
One day in August 1954, when I was a member of the Senate, I was sitting with the late Raymond Cartier in a café opposite the headquarters of a leading Parisian daily newspaper.
Jeg tænker på pacifismen og på de fredsbevægelser, der findes i alle vore lande.
When it was announced that the National Assembly had declared this issue inadmissible for debate, I remember bursting into tears.
(Kraftigt bifald fra midten og fra højre)
I was still a young woman and had yet to lose my illusions!
Selv om man ikke kan drage et stort antal af disse pacifisters gode tro i tvivl — mange af dem er unge — er der andre, som i det skjulte forfølger langt mindre tiltrækkende mål og spiller på den frygt og den ængstelse, der altid har været dårlige rådgivere.
In this context I firmly believe that one of the common policies needed is a policy on communications, for example by television and satellite, as a means of spreading the idea of European identity more effectively. tively.
Lad os se sandheden i øjnene og lad os prøve at gøre os klart forståelige.
Today, I would go further and say that the security of Europe must be internal as well as external.
Den temmelig lave valgdeltagelse — for at sige det mildt — den 17. juni 1984 viser en vis skuffelse hos europæerne.
The interna! security of the individual and the external security of our peoples are indissociably linked and there can be no doubt that a certain form of terrorism is now seeking to destabilize democratic Europe.
Klare mål : Som aldersformand i dag og som formand for en kort bemærkning vil jeg gerne foreslå Dem nogle klare mål i form af spørgsmål.
At the risk of shocking some of you, I feel unable to refrain from mentioning a problem which is one of the most important of our time.
Mere tilkommer mig ikke.
I refer to pacificism and the peace movements which are active in each of our countries.
Mener De ikke, at det er på tide, at de største europæiske nationer virkelig med henblik på mere effektivitet og færre udgifter enes om en fælles forsvarspolitik? tik?
Of course we are all pacificists, but there is a certain form of pacificism which failing to place the defence of peace and the defence of liberty on the same footing, is likely to play into the hands of a power which forbids any form of criticism both within its own boundaries and within those of the countries it controls.
(Tilråb fra venstre)
(Loud applause from the centre and right)
Mener De ikke, at der bør gennemføres en ny europæisk forskningspolitik, især inden for den avancerede teknik (edb, energi, kommunikation, erobring af rummet) ?
Generally speaking, any move that will help make European citizenship a reality must be encouraged.
Fællesskabets Europa er alt for ofte syndebuk for vore vanskeligheder, selv de vanskeligheder, der er direkte forbundet med den interne politik i vore lande.
When I was mayoress of Rambouillet I used to have a little plaque hanging up in my office bearing the words 'Just do your job and let them say what they like'.
Lad os være på vagt, så at der ikke dannes en kløft mellem Europa og dets befolkning, for dens støtte er nødvendig, for at vi kan komme videre frem.
Let us make sure that the people of Europe know about the practical measures that have been taken to change their everyday lives.
Er det nødvendigt at få skandalen ved Mont-Blanc-tunnellen en gang til, før vil kan enes om at fjerne det tunge bureaukrati, som hindrer den frie bevægelighed for borgere, varer, tjenesteydelser og kapital ?
While there is no doubting the sincerity of many of these pacifists, a large number of whom are young people, other individuals are secretly pursuing far less worthy ends, playing on fear and anxiety, which have never been wise counsellors.
Hvor længe skal vi vente, inden de europæiske grænser fjernes for Europas borgere, som snart fär et ensartes pas?
Despite the progress Europe has achieved, the people in our countries do not have sufficient practical aware ness of the complexity of its problems or of its useful ness.
Jeg må sige, at jeg her til morgen stadig så en lang kø af biler og lastvogne ved Kehl-broen.
The European Community has too often been the scapegoat for our difficulties, even those which are directly due to the domestic policies of our countries.
Er det ikke på tide, at ECUen omdannes til en reel europæisk valuta?
We must look the facts in the face and take a long cold look at the situation.
I denne forbindelse er jeg overbevist om, at en af de forskellige former for fællesskabspolitik må være kommunikationspolitikken, for eksempel gennem fjernsyn og satellitter, for at vi i højere grad kan blive os vor europæiske identitet bevidst.
The turnout at the election of 17 June 1984 was, on the whole, rather poor and reflects a certain disappointment among the general
Mener De ikke, at mange grundlæggende spørgsmål som f.eks. lønniveau og nedsættelse af arbejdstiden nødvendigvis må behandles på europæisk plan?
For we all have an historic role to assume. To fulfil it we must pursue clear objectives and show unrelenting determination.
Den europæiske sag har mange, ofte uadskillelige aspekter.
As for clear objectives, in my capacity today as oldest Member and, for these brief moments, your President, I would like to make a few suggestions.
Derfor kan vi som konklusion, men også som vort handlingsprincip overtage Jean Monnets råd:
Modesty for bids me to speak in the affirmative so I shall put them to you in question form.
» Spild ikke Deres energi, lad Dem ikke for tit rive med. Vælg Deres egen sag og vi Deres liv hertil.
Genscher plan, but also the important idea of a treaty on European Union adopted in February of this year by our Parliament.
Kun sådan vil De kunne flytte bjerge«.
This treaty constitutes real progress.
Er en harmonisering af de sociale sikringsordninger i øvrigt en af betingelserne for gennemførelsen af et virkeligt internt marked og større retfærdighed?
— Do you not think that it is time for Europe's lead ing nations to reach genuine agreement, for the sake of greater efficiency and lower expenditure, on a common defence policy?

(Cries from the left)
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er valg af formand for Europa-Parlamentet.
In conclusion, I would like to stress that it is high time that the role of our Parliament, which now has the experience of a first term behind it, was expanded.
Forestiller De Dem ikke muligheden af en fælles udenrigspolitik, sådan som så mange af verdens be folkninger ønsker det — jeg har ofte hørt den for langt?
But there can be no doubt that one day the European Parliament will be called upon to pass legislation in certain areas where solutions can be found only at European level.
Bør denne politik ikke være en uafhængig politik, uden at de særlige forbindelser til Amerikas for enede Stater af den grund bringes i fare?
It is by its dedication to its task, by the respect it is able to inspire and, by the imaginative approach it is able to adopt, that our Parliament will convince each of our governments that a wider role is both necessary and justified.
Bloch von Blottnitz. — (DE) Fru formand, jeg vil ger ne personligt bekræfte mit kandidatur.
— Will we have to go through another scandal like that of the Mont Blanc tunnel before we make up our minds to get rid of the red tape which hampers the free movement of persons, goods, services and capital?
Formanden. — Det tager jeg til efterretning, fru von Blottnitz.
(Applause from the centre and the right)
Jeg har i overensstemmelse med forretningsordenen modtaget følgende kandidaturer i alfabetisk rækkefølge: ge: fru von Blottnitz, hr. Dankert, lady Elles, hr. Le Pen, hr. Pajetta, hr. Pflimlin og hr. Spinelli.
I hope our British friends won't take it amiss if I take the old saying 'wait and see' and change it to 'see and act', a motto which we Europeans must now make our own if there is to be effective and swift progress towards European Union; we no longer have the time to wait.
Navnene på de fire stemmetællere er: hr. Staes, fru Peus, sir Fred Catherwood og hr. Pitt.
This very morning I saw a long line of cars and trucks on the bridge at Kehl.
Tidspunktet er kommet for et politisk Europa, et Europa bestående af ligestillede folk.
— Is it not time for the ECU to become a proper European currency?
(Mødet udsat kl. 11.20 og genoptaget kl. 12.20)
The cause of Europe has indeed many aspects, many of them indissociably linked.
Formanden. — Udfaldet af afstemningen er følgen de:
In conclusion, therefore, I would urge that we might be guided in our action by this counsel of Jean Monnet:
Tillad mig endelig at bemærke, at det er på høje tid, at vort Parlament, som allerede besidder erfaringerne fra en første valgperiode, får tildelt en større rolle.
— Is not the harmonization of social security systems in fact one of the preconditions for attaining a genuine internal market and a greater degree of justice?
Opnåede stemmer: Pflimlin: 165
It is the only way you will be able to move mountains'. tains'.
(Bifald fra midten og fra højre)
(Loud applause)
Da ingen af kandidaterne har opnået absolut flertal, skal der foretages en ny afstemning.
The time has come for a political Europe, a Europe of equal peoples.
Jo større spændingerne bliver i verden, jo vigtigere bliver det, at europæerne forenes.
President. — The next item is the election of the President of the European Parliament.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
I wish to convey my greetings to the House both on my own behalf and on behalf of the group of which I am chairman, the European Right Wing Group.
Formanden. — Fru Castle, det er ikke min opgave i dag: jeg er blot aldersformand.
President. — I shall take note of that, Mrs Bloch von Blottnitz.
De vil få lejlighed til at drøfte politiske anliggender senere.
I have received, in accordance with the conditions laid down in the Rules of Procedure, the following nominations which I shall announce in alphabetical order:
Le Pen. — (FR) Med Deres tilladelse vil jeg gerne afgive en erklæring om resultatet af denne første valg omgang.
Mrs Bloch von Blottnitz, Mr Dankert, Lady Elles, Mr Le Pen, Mr Pajetta, Mr Pflimlin and Mr Spinelli.
Til anden valgomgang har jeg modtaget følgende kan didaturer: hr. Dankert, hr. Pflimlin og hr. Spinelli.
Indeed I was a colleague of Mr Pflimlin in the French National Assembly, both under the Fourth and Fifth Republics.
Afstemningen er påbegyndt.
The ballot is open.
Afstemningen er afsluttet.
The ballot is closed.
Jeg må altså minde om, at jeg ser mig nødsaget til at afbryde taleren, hvis indlægget går ud over de fastsatte grænser.
And you know how it is with the thistle — he who grasps it gets stung for his pains.
Jeg minder ligeledes om, at hvert indlæg højst må være af tre minutteres varighed.
(The sitting was suspended at 11.20 a.m. and resumed at 12.20 p.m.)
Endnu en ting, fru formand.
President. — These are the results of the ballot:

(Bifald fra venstre)
(Applause from the centre and the right)
Lady Elles. — (EN) Fru formand, idet jeg minder om, at et flertal af Europas befolkning stemte for moderate kandidater fra midten til Parlamentet, vil jeg gerne sige, at det er i deres interesse, at vi får en moderat formand fra midten.
Lady Elles. — Madam President, recalling that the people of Europe in the majority voted for moderate centre representatives in this Parliament, I wish to say that it is in their interest that we have a moderate centre President.
Jeg giver derfor afkald på mit kandidatur ved valget af Parlamentets for mand, og jeg anmoder indtrængende min gruppe om " at give sin stemme til den eneste kandidat fra midten, hr. Pflimlin.
I am therefore standing down for the election of President of this Parliament, and I ask and urge my group to give their vote to the one centre party candidate, Mr Pflimlin.
(Bifald fra venstre)
Mr Spinelli: 11
Castle. — (EN) Til forretningsordenen, fru formand.
Mrs Castle. — On a point of order, Madam President.
Inden vi stemmer, må én ting slås fast.
Before we vote we must get one thing clear.
Hr. Le Pen har her i formiddag erklæret, at han tog sit kandidatur tilbage og i stedet for gik ind for hr. Pflimlins kandidatur.
This morning, Mr Le Pen announced that he was with drawing his own candidature and that instead he was endorsing the candidature of Mr Pflimlin.
Kan vi derfor gennem Dem spørge hr. Pflimlin, om han accepterer denne støtte og disse stemmer fra hr. Le Pen?
May we therefore, through you, ask Mr Pflimlin whether he accepts this support and this endorsement by Mr Le Pen?
Formanden. — Jeg må gøre taleren opmærksom på, at dette ikke er et indlæg til forretningsordenen.
Mr Le Pen. — (FR) With your permission I should like to make a statement on the results of this first ballot.
Og det er ikke aldersformandens opgave at spørge en af kandidaterne om, hvad han eller hun mener om de andre.
First of all, however, as a newcomer in this House,
Klepsch. — (DE) Fru formand, desværre var jeg ikke tidlig nok her til at afgive følgende erklæring tidligere.
President. — Mrs Castle, that is not my business today: I am just the doyen d'âge.
