Det ville naturligvis have været lettere at enes om at hæve loftet over Fællesskabets egne indtægter uden nogen idé om, hvordan pengene skulle bruges.
It would have been easier, of course, to accept for the sake of peace and quiet an unsatisfactory solution to the Community's problems.
Imidlertid ville det blot være at hobe problemerne op ude i frem tiden.
However, this would merely be to store up trouble for the future.
Min gruppe ønsker at bidrage til at opbygge Europa på et sikkert fundament.
My group wants to contribute to building Europe on a secure foundation.
Det er en udmarvende opgave at sikre, at fundamentet er fast, men hvis det ikke er det, kan følgerne blive katastrofale.
It is a wearisome business to be sure that the foundation is secure, but if it is not, the consequences can be catastrophic.
Det er grunden til, at vi i Det forenede Kongerige lægger så stor vægt på at få ordningen rigtig.
That is why we in the United Kingdom attach so much importance to getting the system right.
Det er grunden til, at vi lægger så stor vægt på at hjælpe med til at udforme Europas fremtid.
It is why we are committed to helping to form the future of Europe.
Vi ønsker et ægte, internt marked; vi ønsker større industrielt og teknisk samarbejde, og vi ønsker, at Europas politiske og økonomiske synspunkter bliver hørt ude i verden.
We want a genuine internal market, we want greater industrial and technical cooperation and we wish to make Europe's political and economic views heard in the world.
Vores interesse er vakt af forslagene om, at Fælles skabets stater burde tænke mere i fællesskab over deres forsvarsinteresser.
We are interested by suggestions that the States of the Community should do more thinking together about their defence interests.
Alle disse ting er, hvad vi ønsker, at Fællesskabet skal handle om. Jeg kommer i dårligt humør af dem, som ikke ønsker at forstå vort store engagement i Europas fremtid.
All these things are what we want the Community to be about.
Hr. formand, Det forenede Kongerige agter derfor at engagere sig i den europæiske sag helt og fuldt, frit og på kreativ vis.
Mr President, the United Kingdom therefore intends to commit itself to the European adventure fully, freely and creatively.
Den beslutning, vi traf, om at træde ind i EF er uigenkaldelig.
The decision we took to join the EEC is irrevocable.
Vi vil stå ved denne beslutning, og vi vil ikke unddrage os vor rimelige andel af budgetbyrden.
We will be faithful to that decision, and we will not shun our fair share of the burden of the budget.
Faktisk vil man behandle den lille mælkeproducent i Centralfrankrig på lige fod med de i Nordeuropa oprettede »mælkefabrikker«, som er de egentligt ansvarlige for mælke overskuddet og underskuddet på den europæiske handelsbalance.
Mr Gremetz (COM). — (FR) Mr President, if we have to speak of the failure of the last European Council it is due less, I think, to the final disagree ment than to the extent of the disquiet which it aroused in so many areas.
Derfor betragter vi mælkeproducenternes vrede i vort land som helt berettiget.
Mr President, my remarks today have necessarily been of a somewhat general nature.
Ethvert skridt i retning af dets endelige afskaffelse vil være en god ting, men jeg er bange for, at det i Bruxelles udarbejdede kompromis fremdeles ikke imødekommer dette krav.
It is often argued that national interests have come to replace Community interests in the minds of the Community's leaders. I do not think this is entirely true.
Gremetz (COM). — (FR) Hr. formand, hvis der skal tales om fiasko i forbindelse med det sidste Europæi ske Råd, så må det efter min mening mindre være som følge af den afsluttende uenighed end af omfanget af den foruroligelse, som det affødte på alle områder.
It is perfectly right for the French or the Italian or the Luxembourg representative in the Council of Ministers to defend and to promote the interests of his or her country.
Bruxelles-topmødets fiasko er altså summen af al denne uligevægt.
It is about his own country that he is best informed, and it is there that he has his political roots.
Det er prisen for den af de fleste af fællesskabslandene førte sparepolitik.
What worries me far more is the tendency of Ministers to regard their Council meetings in Brussels as an extension of their party political debates at home.
Der er ikke tale om at gøre Storbritannien til syndebuk for alle problemerne i Bruxelles.
Ministers are afraid of the attacks of their domestic political opponents, who will represent them as having endangered Irish, Danish or British interests.
Men vi vil heller ikke gå med til, at Storbritannien tager landene som gidsler ved at blokere landbrugsprisernes fastsættelse.
Ministers are often unwilling to explain to their electorate that in the longterm interests of all it has been necessary to compromise on the short.-term interests of some.
Dette topmøde har faktisk afsløret en alvorlig ulige vægt.
This summit of the Heads of State did in fact show up serious imbalances.
Først og fremmest ønsket om fortsættelse af tilsidesættelsen af fællesskabsbestemmelserne.
The first of them is the willing ness to perpetuate the violation of Community rules.
Det er selvfølgelig Storbritannien, jeg tænker på, som fortsætter med at tale om budgetmæssige uligevægt i landets disfovør, til trods for at man ved, at hovedårsagen til uligevægten ligger i den engelske vilje til systematisk at forsyne sig uden for Fællesskabet.
I am of course alluding to the United Kingdom, which persistently talks about a budgetary imbalance to its disadvantage, whereas we know that the main cause of this imbalance lies in the British willingness to buy outside the Community.
Da Margaret Thatcher er utilfreds med, at man ikke anerkender denne tilsidesættelse, ønsker hun, at man godtgør hende udgifterne dertil.
Not content with legitimizing this violation Mrs Thatcher wants us to refund the cost of it to her.
Det var derfor med rette, at vi fordømte studehandelen af 30. maj 1980, hvor den første check til England udstedtes efter forslag derom fra de daværende stats- og regeringschefer.
Horrifyingly, it is sometimes better for a weak government that no decision be taken in the Council of Ministers than a decision which can be attacked by domestic political opponents.
Allerede dengang krævede Tyskland en lignende tilbagebetaling.
We have a saying in England : 'He travels fastest who travels alone'.
Det viser i hvor høj grad vi havde ret i at frygte følgerne
Well, the Community is not in that position, since it is a
Hr. formand, hvis man ønsker, at Europa kommer til at tage sig anderledes ud i opinionens øjne, så skal Europa sørge for reglernes overholdelse, så skal Europa beslutsomt indlede kampen for beskæftigelse og produktive investeringer, gå ind for det industri elle, videnskabelige og tekniske samarbejde.
That is why we were right to condemn the haggling of 30 May 1980 when the first British cheque was paid, in accordance with ideas of the then heads of govern ment. The Federal Republic of Germany as well is already demanding a similar refund in its turn.
Europa have en omfattende socialpolitik, f.eks. ville et europæisk initiativ med henblik på indførelse af femogtredive timer uden nedgang i købekraften utvivlsomt imødekomme arbejdernes forventninger til Europa.
Gremetz example a European initiative in favour of a 35-hour week without reducing buying power would without doubt accord with the expectations of workers in Europe.
den budgetmæssige krise. Men det kan vel ikke egentlig overraske.
include Spain and Portugal.
Det var grunden til forkastelsen af Fællesskabets budget, og jeg må sige, at der, da vi forkastede budgettet, ikke fandtes tilstrækkeligt med trivielle ytringer i vore lande til at udråbe vor ansvarsløshed.
From exception to exception to the detriment of the candidate countries and of the countries of the European Community alike we are slowly treading the path towards the transformation of the Community into the free trade area which the United States of America would like to see.
Og hvordan kan man også undgå at beklage Europas tavshed med hensyn til at sætte ind for fred og nedrustning?
Finally, how can we fail to regret Europe's silence as regards action in favour of peace and disarmament ?
Endvidere er et initiativ fra De Ti's side med henblik på genoptagelse af samarbejdet med udviklingslandene efter vor mening mere nødvendigt end nogen sinde i folkenes gensidige interesse.
In our view, too, an initiative by the Ten towards a revival of cooperation with the developing countries is more than ever necessary in the mutual interests of our peoples.
I dag, hvor sulten fortsat hærger, hvor forgældelsen har nået en dramatisk tærskel, ønsker vi, at det franske formandskab må foreslå Europa et højtideligt initiativ til genoptagelse af nord-syd-dialogen.
Now, when the ravages of famine are continuing, when indebtedness is reaching a dramatic level, we hope that the French presidency will propose to Europe a solemn initiative for reviving the north/south dialogue.

Jeg kan se, at kommissionsformanden nikker samtykkende. kende.
But the Brussels negotiations showed up a second imbalance.
Veil (L). — (FR) Hr. formand, så er vi samlet igen for at opføre det sædvanlige stykke.
Under the pretext of budgetary discipline sinister cuts have been imposed, in the agricultural sector in particular.
Dekorationerne er stillet op — det er mødesalen.
But what did we ask of the external suppliers of the Communty in return ?
Kun hovedpersonen skifter som en international stjerne, men han synger samme arie som stjernetenoren før ham.
But the famous tax on imported fats, which was an excellent source of Community finance, found no favour in the eyes of those in Europe who act as advocates for the United States at the moment when the latter is aspiring to take upon itself the right to control European industrial exports to socialist coun tries, without Europe's envisaging any kind of retaliation. tion.
Hvorfor denne forcering af tingene?
We are the actors and we are playing the same parts.
Man tror utvivlsomt, at tingene da af sig selv går i orden, men det er indlysende, at de blot bliver værre.
Only the principal has changed, as international stars do. And yet, he is only taking up the air which the previous tenor sang to us.
De må undskylde, hr. rådsformand, men det er Dem, der er stjernen!
I hope the President-in-Office of the Council will forgive me if I call him the star.
De synger ikke dårligere end nogen anden, men Deres sang, den kender vi.
His singing is no worse than anyone else's, but we are weary of the song he is singing.
Det er blevet til et omkvæd for ikke at sige til en gammel traver. Derfor kunne vort refrain passende lyde: nu kan det være nok!
It has become a refrain, I might even say an old refrain.
Jeg skal holde mig fra det lille nummer, der går ud på at udpege syndebukkene.
We try in effect to treat the small dairy farmer in centra!
Hver især har sin del af ansvaret, og hvis man samlede alle syndebukkene, er der risiko for, at man gik hen og fik en hel fåreflok.
France in the same way as the dairy plants in the countries of northern Europe, which are in fact the ones responsible for both the dairy and the European balance of trade deficit.
Det der imidlertid er brug for, er dog sikkert at den enkelte ikke bliver sin rolles fange, fange af sin egen prestige, kort sagt en slags demagogi, og navnlig ikke afspejler nationale egoismer.
This is why we consider that the anger of the milk producers in our country is perfectly justifiable. There is an imbalance as well if we consider the absurd system of compensatory amounts which has favoured the countries with strong currencies since its creation in 1970.
Det nytter ikke noget at ville beskrive Fællesskabets tilstand, for vore syv sprogs samlede ordforråd slår ikke til.
There is no point in attempting to describe the state of the Community because the combined linguistic wealth of our seven languages would not suffice.
For øvrigt har De, hr. rådsformand, lige så lidt som kommissionsformanden prøvet på at skjule denne tilstand.
And in any case neither the President-in-Office of the Council nor the President of the Commission made any attempt to conceal its condition.
Hvad kollegerne angår, har de, uanset land eller parti, allerede før mig uophørligt taget på veje derimod.
As for our colleagues, irrespective of the country or political party to which they belong, they have all deplored it, before me.
De er til at græde over. Men jeg vil gerne, da der tales derom, endda meget, komme ind på denne nye Messina-konference, dette rådsmøde, der på en måde skulle kaste lys over vor fremtid.
That is why I shall not return to this set-piece of the Community, because I should run the risk of repeating what other people have said already and what we ourselves have also said on many occasions.
Derfor vil jeg da heller ikke vende tilbage til dette billede af Fællesskabet, idet det risikerer blot at blive en gentagelse af det, andre allerede har sagt, og det jeg også selv har sagt her ved mangfoldige lejligheder.
It is the price of the poli cies of austerity followed by most of the countries in the Community. It is not in fact a question of making the United Kingdom a scapegoat for all the problems encountered in Brussels.
Men som taler for den liberale gruppe vil jeg tillade mig, inden jeg fremsætter bemærkninger eller forslag af nogen art, at stille Dem et spørgsmål.
But, speaking on behalf of the Liberal group, I should like to put one question to you in advance of any other comments or suggestions.
Når jeg henvender mig til Dem, hr. rådsformand, er det for øvrigt i lige så høj grad til Deres forgængere, til Deres kolleger i Rådet og i sidste ende til Deres regeringer, at jeg henvender mig.
Mr President, if we want Europe to have a different image in popular opinion Europe must see that its rules are enforced, it must fight resolutely in the battle for employment and productive investment and it must play the card of industrial, scientific and technological cooperation.
De husker utvivlsomt — De var dengang kommissær — at Parlamentet i december 1979 forkastede Fællesskabets budget.
The President of the Council — who must be aware that in addressing him I am also addressing his predecessors as well as his colleagues in the Council, and ultimately their governments — will no doubt recall — he was the representative of the Commission at the time — that in December 1979 Parliament rejected the Community budget.
Jeg vil være så ondskabsfuld at henvise til en tale, som jeg holdt nogle måneder senere — jeg var da formand for Parlamentet og holdt mig så langt som muligt fra disse spørgsmål for ikke direkte at tage del deri.
I shall be cruel and refer to a speech which I made some months later — I was then President of Parliament and distanced myself from these problems as much as possible so as not to
Vi har derfor lov til at spørge os selv, hvor vi bevæger os hen.
We can, then, ask ourselves where we are going.
Navnlig kan man i dag konstatere, at den økonomiske fiasko forhindrer os i at overveje en politisk union.
Above all today has shown that economic failure makes any thoughts of political union impossible.
Således havde man for nylig i Bruxelles udarbejdet en politisk tekst, men den kunne ikke offentliggøres på grund af topmødets økonomiske fiasko . ..
Thus, in Brussels the other day a political text was prepared, and it was not possible for that political text to become official, because of the economic failure of the Summit ...
Dermed mener jeg, at vi skal vise os beslutsomme i konkrete forhold.
Mr Cheysson, President-in-Office (FR) The text is ready now.
Ellers vil vi gøre os til grin over for den øvrige verden.
Mrs Veil (L). — (FR) Thank you for the information.
Vi bliver ved med at gentage, at Europa er vor eneste chance.
I shall simply ask why the Council did nothing when everything was ready for today's psychological drama, which is only the nth repeat of the performance given already at Stuttgart and Athens ?
Jeg vil sige, at vi ikke er ene derom, hverken vi parlamentarikere eller vore ministre, idet præsident Karamanlis og dronning Beatrix gjorde os den ære at tage ordet for at sige det samme.
I also sometimes ask myself why, if the Commission is already lugging — if you will excuse the expression — its trunks around, it does not also bring along the costumes and masks which it needs, as for a provincial tour ...
Veil (L). — (FR) Tak for oplysningen. Men Bruxelles er ikke det eneste eksempel, idet vi allerede i Athen oplevede, hvorledes stats- og regeringscheferne i en katastrofal international situation nærmest af anstændighed undlod at afgive en politisk erklæring.
Brussels is not the only instance, in Athens, in a catastrophic international situation, we have already seen how the Heads of State and of Government, from some sense of propriety, did not make any kind of political declaration.
Men hvorfor?
Yes, but to what end ?
I dag mener jeg, at hvis vi skal have have et nyt Messina, må det faktisk være for at undersøge de politiske projekter, selv om man måske midlertidigt må lade de økonomiske spørgsmål hvile uden dermed at lade Romtraktaten hvile.
I believe that today, if there should be a new Messina, it would in fact be in order to scrutinize political projects, even if that meant, provisionally perhaps, setting aside the economic questions, without however setting aside the Treaty of Rome.
Vi må vide os i stand til ikke at give afkald på det, vi har, i håbet om at finde flere faciliteter.
Let us not give up what we have in the hope of finding more facilities.
Hvordan skulle borgerne kunne have tillid til Europa, hvis de ser, at Europas forsvarere ikke er i stand til at holde deres forpligtelser?
I shall not be small-minded and name scapegoats, Everyone carries some share of the responsibility and if we were to gather together all the scapegoats we should have a veritable flock of them.
(Bifald) de la Malène (DEP). — (FR) Hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, jeg vil gerne om den krise, som vi endnu engang står overfor, sige nogle bemærkninger på min gruppes vegne og begynde med at fastslå nogle kendsgerninger.
However there can be no doubt about the need for individuals not to become type-cast, the prisoners of personal prestige, locked in the search for popular support, and above all that they should not become the mirror of national egoisms.
Mens jeg taler om Romtraktaten og dens funktion, vil jeg gerne nævne kompromiserne.
In speaking of the Treaty of Rome and the operation of it, I should like to mention compromises.
For kompromiser ønsker vi alle.
Because we all want compromises.
Vi har meget tit sagt det her, jeg selv måske mindre end andre.
We have said it here very often, and I have perhaps said it more than others.
Men hvis kompromiser vil sige, at l'acquis communautaire skal trues, og at traktatens grundlæggende tekster ikke mere skal følges, så er det — og det bør siges helt klart — bedre at blokere Fællesskabet i den stand, hvori det befinder sig, at foreslå helt nye veje, end at slå ind på en vej, der ville være intet mindre end en fornægtelse af selve fællesskabsånden.
But if the compromises mean that the Community patrimony is jeopardized and that the fundamental texts of the Treaty are no longer applied, then — this has to be said clearly — it is better to have a deadlock with the Community in the state it is and to propose new ways, rather than to set out on a road which would be the very negation of the Community spirit.
Det sidste topmøde i Bruxelles har i endnu højere grad end de foregående haft en klargørende virkning.
There is no point in going into the difficulties today.
Ud over de rent finansielle krav, står det nu klart, at Storbritannien ikke accepterer de begreber, der danner grundlaget for den fælles landbrugspolitik, hvormed jeg mener fællesskabspræferencen og den finansielle solidaritet.
We should have to weep over them. But I should like to mention — since there is a question of it — the second Messina conference, the Council meeting which might in some way shed some light on the future.
For lidt siden stillede jeg et spørgsmål til formanden for Rådet.
I put a question to the President-in-Office of the Council just now.
Nu henvender jeg mig til Dem, kære kolleger, og gennem Dem til alle de politiske partier, der som i alle demokratiske lande udtrykker den offentlige opinion.
I should now like to address my colleagues, and through them all the political parties which, as in any democratic country, are the expression of public opinion.
Det betyder, at de, der vil praktisere den fælles landbrugspolitik, den fælles solidaritet, kan gøre det, men at det ikke kommer på tale for Englands vedkommende, som stort set skal have lige så meget igen, som landet bidrager med.
With these elections in prospect we must first of all try to emphasise what the Community has given to all sides, to make the electors realize that in giving it a new lease of life we are making it possible for people in Europe to look to a better tomorrow.
Om nogle uger skal vi til at forberede kampagnen til de europæiske valg.
What would that meeting be and, first of all what was Messina ?
Med henblik på disse valg skal vi frem for alt prøve på at understrege, hvad Fællesskabet har givet de forskel lige parter, få dem til at forstå at det at give Fælles skabet ny livskraft er det samme som at muliggøre det for europæerne at se frem til bedre tider.
And after the failure of the EDC and the Pleven plan for a political community we could not afford for the new meeting today to end in failure as regards the Treaty of Rome.
Lad os med en smule ironi lægge mærke til, at England samtidig med denne form for afvisning og tilbageholdenhed ikke har noget imod forsyningssikkerhed, når den er nyttig eller velgørende. Lad os også bemærke, at det fremdeles er vanskeligt at finde ud af, hvorledes Storbritannien kendetegner de toldafgifter, som landet opkræver og tilbagebetaler. Er der for England tale om fællesskabsejendom, eller skal landet have disse overførsler godtgjort?
And finally, when they meet today the representatives of our countries cannot afford to agree that the Community can no longer be made to work and that to give an appearance of facesaving and in the interests of greater flexibility they are prepared to take a step backwards.
Hvis regeringerne og Kommissionen skal træffe foranstaltninger, så er det vor opgave at vise os dristige i vor tale.
We have to tell our fellow citizens that we cannot allow Europe to fade away, with all the international
Gennem sine næsten totale og vedvarende tilbagebetalinger har Storbritannien på en måde til hensigt at udtræde af den fælles landbrugspolitik: hvis De absolut vil have den, så behold den; os vedrører den ikke mere.
Through these virtually total and lasting refunds the United Kingdom intends to take leave, in a way, of the common agricultural policy : you can keep it if you want to ; it is nothing to do with us any more.
Her foreligger der, mine damer og herrer, en grund læggende uenighed.
There is a fundamental disagreement here, ladies and gentlemen.
Lad det være sagt endnu en gang, at det ikke er en finansiel uenighed; det er uenighed om doktrinen og opfattelsen, og ud over selve landbrugspolitikken vedrører denne uenighed hele fællesskabsopfattelsen.
It is no longer one more financial disagree ment : it is a disagreement on doctrine and ideas and it goes beyond the more common agricultural policy, this disagreement affects the whole concept of the Community.
grunde, som jeg foretrækker ikke at udbrede mig om..
It also means taking a stance courageously on definite points.
Man holdt igen ud fra finansielle betragtninger, og bagefter sagde man så, at det var af principielle årsager.
What a ridiculous spectacle we shall present to the rest of the world otherwise.
Desværre har principperne allerede længe været truet.
We do not say that the United Kingdom is not European.
Men denne kompromisets vej fører ingen steder hen; det er den samme, som man har fulgt i årevis.
We say that she has a different idea of Europe from all the others — different from the nine others
Det er ikke ved at udskyde problemerne, at de løses.
We continually say that Europe is our only chance.
