Aelvoet (V), medordfører for Bulgarien. - (NL) Hr. for mand, det vigtigste politiske punkt, der behandles her i dag, er den rolle som Eucopa-Parlamentet vil eller ikke vil kunne spille i hele denne proces.
Brok (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, it is my belief that the Oostlander report represents an im portant contribution by the European Parliament to pro gressing the enlargement process in a constructive man ner.
Jeg har nøje lyttet til mi-
We see enlargement as one of the major tasks in the
De havde allerede en gammel demokratisk tradition.
In any case I regard a greater involvement of Parliament as vital.
Med hensyn til Bulgarien, to bemærkninger.
After all, the European Parliament has the final say in whether an applicant coun try joins or not.
Det nationale program om regional udvikling er endnu ikke udarbejdet i Bulgarien.
In widening the European Union rather than deepening it and in making it more democratic and diversified rather than more bureaucratic and centralized lies the best way forward for all the people of Europe.
Derfor er det umuligt at kræve, at de regionale strukturer, der er nødvendige til det formål, skal være på plads inden udgangen af 1998.
The people want sensible cooperation and not dogmatic federalism. alism.
For det andet, vi henstiller udtrykkeligt til, at Bulgarien slettes af negativlisten vedrørende visumordningen.
These accession part nerships are the very cornerstone of the inclusive enlarge ment process which Parliament has called for.
Donner (PSE), medordfører for Estland. - (EN) Hr. for mand, da den tid, jeg har fået tildelt, er meget kort, vil jeg blot sige følgende.
Berès (PSE). - (FR) Mr President, I do not believe that anyone in this Parliament wants, or is able to, delay the great rendezvous that we are all awaiting, that of enlarge ment.
Det er en stor drøm, der kan blive virke lighed. Det land, hvor et fåtal indtil for nylig svingede Sovjetunionens røde faner, kan nu stolt se frem til Euro pas blå flag med de tolv stjerner.
The three institutions have to cooperate with each other.
Det er et land, der har gjort enorme fremskridt i den sidste tid.
We must also work in partnership with the applicant countries.
Der er ligevægt på statsbudgettet, inflationen er blevet begrænset, og privatiseringsprocessen er næsten færdiggjort.
Mr Cars is absolutely right; we should be working in partnership with all 26 national parliaments.
For det første vil jeg gerne, hvad de baltiske republikker angår, erindre om, at disse tre republikker - og kun disse afalle ansøgerlandene - har været besat af Sovjetunionen og betragtet som en del heraf- i modsætning til de andre central- og østeuropæiske lande, der i det mindste nød for mel uafhængighed.
So important is this process that we must not allow ourselves to indulge in other bouts of institutional junkieism or go off onto self-serving ego trips during this debate.
Den vil efter min mening ikke blive styrket ved en udvidelse af NATO.
And we are delighted by the Council's and the Commission's declaration of this morning, as discussed by Mr Enrique Barón Crespo.
Lad mig, hr. formand, herom sige, at det, som Kommissionen har skrevet om opdelingen mellem kortsigtede og mellemsigtede mål, ikke svarer til virkeligheden.
The European Parlia ment does not wish, indeed is not asking, to negotiate the enlargements instead of the Council and the Commission.
Det er et generelt problem - det har hr. Oostlander allerede selv nævnt - for alle landene, men med hensyn til Letland svarer dette altså ikke til virkeligheden.
On the other hand, in terms of the political significance of a request for transparency, a request for clarity, a request for information, even consultation if necessary, on these basic questions regarding the future of our Union, we are clear.
Vi skal passe på, at vi ikke trykker for hårdt på gaspedalen i nogle spørgsmål, der fejlagtigt betragtes som kortsigtede, mens andre i stedet lige så fejlagtigt betragtes som mellemsigtede mål.
In this respect, Parliament does have a role to play and we must support all initiatives to this end.
von Habsburg (PPE), medordfører for Ungarn. - (DE) Hr. formand, det er en behagelig opgave at præsentere be tænkningen om Ungarn, netop set i lyset af det, som er blevet sagt tidligere.
My response to that is to remind Parliament of the words of William Shakespeare in Julius Caesar that: 'There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune'.
Kristoffersen (PPE), medordfører for Litauen. - Hr. for mand, ærede kolleger, når man som dansker kaster blik ket hen over Østersøen, så bliver man klar over, hvordan det hav i stadig højere grad er med til at binde landene ved Østersøen sammen i en Baltic Area Corporation.
I would urge just one thing of the Council and the Com mission: the biggest problem the accession countries have is the ability of their civil service, their administrative sys tems and their legal systems to cope with the acquis com munautaire.
Det er et netværk, som i virkeligheden garnerer og ledsager det politiske arbejde for at få bugseret ikke mindst de tre baltiske lande ind i et europæisk samarbejde i Den Europæiske Union.
I would urge that we put maximum emphasis on those aspects of the accession partnerships so that they will be ready to join us as soon as is possible.
Sikkerheden er afgørende for, om der overhovedet kan blive tale om et økonomisk opsving.
Let me draw the Council's attention to this: make no mistake regarding the significance of the speeches and dia logues that you are entering into with us.
I den henseende er Ungarn i den lykkelige situation, at landet allerede tidligere har kunnet opnå store fremskridt.
It is a question of clarity of European construction for the applicant countries.
I de dokumenter, som jeg måtte gennemgå under udarbejdelsen af betænkningen, kunne jeg læse, at lovgivningen i Ungarn allerede siden 1982, det vil sige på et tidspunkt, hvor Ungarn stadig havde et etpartisystem, har været udformet således, at landet faktisk kan blive medlem af Den Europæiske Union.
It is also a question of the importance of the en largement process to our citizens, for in the absence of transparency our citizens will not understand the work which we have embarked upon.
Desuden har Ungarn en gammel demokratisk tradition.
In this, I emphasize the following dimensions: firstly, the institutional precondition, of course.
Jeg var til stede ved det første møde i det ungarske parla
We believe its content is very important, in particular foreign, security and defence policy.
Vi samarbejder også inden for det særlige Østersøråd, og i Danmark ser vi frem til, at Litauen skal være det nye formandsland.
Paisley (NI). - Mr President, financial assistance to the applicant states to help advance the process of enlarge ment is clearly needed.
Alt dette er i overensstemmelse med Litauens hårde og viljestærke arbejde for at placere sig økonomisk og politisk og i sam-
It is right, however, that Parlia ment should emphasize that the development of democracy and respect for the rule of law is a priority and that steps will be taken if any applicant country displays man ifest shortcomings in this respect.
Det støtter vi kraftigt fra alle politiske sider i Danmark.
There is an urgency for the partnership and for democracy in general.
Lad dem ikke være i tvivl om det et sekund.
(The President cut off the speaker)
Vi ved alle, at dette land har haft en betydelig politisk krise, som på den ene side er normalt i et demokrati, men som uden tvivl kan forsinke opfyldelsen af betingelserne for tiltrædelsen til sin tid.
Henderson, President-in-Office of the Council. - Mr President, you have been very generous in the time you have allocated to the President-in-Office.
Disse spørgsmål burde medtages i aftalen.
Can I take up one or two points which have been made in the discussion? sion?
Hoff (PSE), medordfører for Polen. - (DE) Hr. formand, i forbindelse med forberedelsen af tiltrædelsespartnerskabet for Polen støttede jeg Kommissionens forslag om prioriteter på kort og mellemlangt sigt.
Celiai (NI). - (IT) Mr President, the objective of the many initiatives intended to form the basis of the enlargement strategy is that of ensuring that the applicant countries sat isfy the political and economic conditions laid down by the European Council of Copenhagen.
Det vil jeg gerne knytte et par bemærkninger til: Ved omstruktureringen af stålsektoren bør Kommissionen også være mere opmærksom på minedriften, fordi det hænger sammen. Kommissionen nævner forvaltningsreformen, hvor antallet af »Vojwodeskaber« skal reduceres fra 40 til ca. 10.
This will make it possible to establish the bases for negotiations on a fundamental principle for the enlargement process, the opposition to any logic that leaves the countries concerned loopholes or exceptions in respect of the political obligations established.
Speciale (PSE), medordfører for Slovenien. - (IT) Hr. formand, jeg mener, at det vigtigste politiske problem, som vi står over for, er Parlamentets krav om fuldt ud at kunne spille sin rolle, samt kravet om, at ordførerne for de enkelte lande får lejlighed til fuldt ud at spille deres rolle under tiltrædelsesforhandlingerne.
Firstly, there was a query about the status of the letter from Mr Cook to you, Mr President, and also about the status of the remarks which I previously made this morning; this was raised by Mr Barón and also by Mr Brok.
Dette er det afgørende spørgsmål, og rådsformandskabet har insisteret meget på ordet information.
The letter from Mr Cook was a background Presidency paper.
Information er en forudsætning for at tælle med, for at få indflydelse, men det er kun en forud sætning.
The position which I outlined this morning in my previous contribution is a Presidency statement which has the backing of the Council and therefore has the authority of the Council.
Nu må vi se i praksis, hvordan Europa-Parlamentet kan få indflydelse og i hvilket omfang, man vil tage hensyn til Europa-Parlamentets holdninger.
I hope that helps colleagues to give further consideration to some of the points of substance which I have tried to make in my earlier contribution.
Der mangler et vigtigt punkt, hr. kommissær, der mangler fuldstændig en bemærkning om socialpolitikken.
It seems advisable for the Commission to introduce into the new accession strategy the so-called conditionality clause.
Jeg er derimod lidt forvirret over kommissær Van den Broeks svar med hensyn til hr. Oostlanders kritik af opdelingen i kortsigtede og mellemsigtede mål.
The countries of central and eastern Europe should rigorously observe the commitments assumed with regard to democracy and human rights, the protection of minorities, the adoption of the Community acquis, on pain of suspension of the partnership.
Tillad mig at slutte af med en generel bemærkning til fremgangsmåden.
(The President cut off the speaker)
Det er virkelig kritisabelt, trods de er klæringer, De har afgivet.
A point was raised by Mme Berès about timing and that is an important point.
Vi mener ikke, at man må blokere hele fremgangsmåden i processen, men det ville nu have været bedre, om De havde ladet demokratiet be stemme.
As to the question of how long Par liament should have to be able to express its view, it would be wrong for us to tie ourselves down to a specific time on every occasion.
Det forventer vi jo af tiltrædelseslandene.
I do not see it being longer than six weeks.
Vi gør det endda til et kriterium for tiltrædelsen. Vi bør selv tage fat dér i vores eget fællesskab.
It might often be shorter than that and there may be occasions when there are very urgent matters which have to be dealt with in a period very much shorter than four weeks.
Hvad nu Slovenien angår, forekommer det mig, at dette land forbereder sig seriøst, og at der derfor er al mulig grund til at iværksætte afgørende og seriøse forhandlinger. ger.
In the normal run of business it would be that kind of period of four, five or maybe six weeks and I hope that is helpful.
Carnero González (GUE/NGL), medordfører om Tjekkiet. - (ES) Hr. formand, jeg vil gerne komme med tre be mærkninger.
Stenzel (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, I would like to make two points in relation to this debate.
Jeg tror, som det er blevet sagt mange gange, at udvidelsesprocessen skal følges op af et tættere samarbejde, og i hele denne sag står vi beklageligvis over for en holdning fra de andre institutioners side, som ikke netop er positiv.
We are on the eve of an important development in Europe, the enlargement process, which will undoubtedly occupy us - as Mr Spencer has quite rightly pointed out - for the next ten or fifteen years or possibly even longer since it will not end with the current eleven applicants.
Dette Parlament er ikke blevet hørt formelt om indholdet i tiltrædelsespartnerskaberne, og vi er derfor i gang med at diskutere en politisk holdning uden bindende juridisk kraft.
It is absolutely vital that the European Parliament, as the directly elected representative of the peoples of Europe, has a continuous and regulated involvement in this proc ess, rather than appearing to give the process free rein in itially but ultimately making a pronouncement about whether the outcome is acceptable.
Vi bør derfor fastholde denne kritik til trods for de intentioner, som rådsformanden har givet udtryk for under dette møde.
I therefore share the view that Parliament should be involved during the leadin phase and during the accession agreements.
Wiersma (PSE), medordfører for Slovakiet. - (NL) Hr. formand, som ordfører for Slovakiet går jeg ind for Kom missionens holdning i den foreslåede partnerskabskontrakt med Slovakiet.
The third point which has been made by a number of con tributors this morning is the general question of involving the people of Europe.
Jeg finder, at Kommissionen har valgt de rigtige prioriteter på kort og langt sigt.
Let me make it clear that the Presidency and the Council are absolutely committed to the process of enlargement.
I morgen afholder Parlamentet en separat debat om den aktuelle situation i Slovakiet.
Not everything will be plain sail ing. Enlargement has a large up-side, with the potential of great gains in security and great gains in economic prospects, but there are things that need to be dealt with by the Union in the period leading to that and some of them will involve difficult decisions.
Den aktuelle situation mærkes natur ligvis i vurderingen af forholdet til Slovakiet. De politiske problemer i dette land er konstant i forgrunden og over skygger andre spørgsmål, der spiller en rolle i tiltrædelsesprocessen for dette land.
It is important that we take public opinion along with us so that the public are fully informed and are aware of the issues at stake in that proc ess.
Hvis der er kommet et svar, så lad dette svar få officiel værdi, og lad fremover dette være adfærdsnormen for en så tankevækkende og kompleks proces.
I am merely re-emphasizing something which is already obvious in order to benefit transparency.
Cars (ELDR). - (SV) Jeg stillede et meget direkte og konkret spørgsmål til kommissær Van den Broek.
Spencer (PPE). - Mr President, on a point of order.
Spørgsmålet gik ud på, om acquis -gennemgangen har forskellig betydning for de 5+1 og de øvrige ansøger lande. Jeg ville være taknemmelig, hvis De, hr. formand, ville bede kommissær Van den Broek besvare mit spørgsmål. mål.
Un der Rule 601 am required later this morning, as chairman of the relevant committee, to recommend to this House whether or not we refer back.
Brok (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, jeg tror, at Europa-Parlamentet med Oostlander-betænkningen yder et vigtigt bidrag til at fremskynde udvidelsesproces sen konstruktivt.
I ask him to take one last step towards us. I have given him a text, which was circulated to him yesterday, which makes the position clear: after the plenary vote, the Coun cil and the Commission will take the earliest opportunity to consider Parliament's views.
For os er denne udvidelse en af de væsentlige opgaver i de kommende år, og Europa-Parlamentet vil helt sikkert kunne give nogle afgørende impulser i den forbindelse.
At the moment all you are saying is that we have the chance to express Parliament's views.
Van den Broek, medlem af Kommissionen. - (NL) Natur ligvis vil jeg gerne svare, men måske er det bedre, hvis jeg tager det med i mit svar efter indlæggene.
Mr President-in-Office, we have that opportunity all the time. We want a confirmation from you that you and the Commission, as Mr Van den Broek suggested, will con sider our views, because that is the way to secure public support, which you rightly referred to, through a parlia mentary channel, for what we are trying to do on enlarge ment.
Det er også vigtigt at konstatere, at vi ikke kun lægger vægt på de økonomiske kriterier og heller ikke betragter udvidelsen som et rent økonomisk fænomen.
I believe that with this, all procedural aspects will have been discussed extensively, as there is a farreaching level of agreement.
Vi lægger snarere stor vægt på, at det politiske kriterium fra København, nemlig demokrati og menneskerettigheder, bliver gennemført, og at det står klart helt fra starten i denne ud videlsesrunde, at Den Europæiske Union har en politisk dimension og ikke kun en økonomisk. I den forstand kan forhandlingslederne også regne med EuropaParlamentet.
May I confine myself then to responding to one single question which was asked more specifically, firstly by Mr Cars, who wonders whether the all-inclu-siveness of the enlargement process is left sufficiently in tact during the procedure which we think we will follow at the so-called screening.
Netop dette punkt skal spille en betydningsfuld rolle, da vi jo skal ratificere til sidst.
After that the process will naturally have to be continued in groups, and then country by country.
Jeg er kommissæren og rådsformanden taknemmelig for nogle af deres præciseringer i forbindelse med Europa-Parlamentets deltagelse i processen som led i partnerskaberne, og også i hele udvidelsesprocessen.
For those who are still preparing for the negotiations, this evaluation is intended to hasten the catching-up process, so that they will be able to meet the conditions for entering negotiations as soon as possible.
Jeg går ud fra, at formandskabets commitment er af en sådan art, at det også bliver gennemført i Rådet.
In addition, we will have to look at each individual negotiating country to see to what extent this can be done with all six together, or separately.
Jeg vil gerne tilslutte mig den antagelse, at det så vil blive godkendt tilsvarende af Rådet, da der ellers vil opstå en troværdighedskrise institutionerne imellem.
I can imagine that soon this will soon have to be on a bilateral basis, be cause the issues which will be the subject of the negotiations will differ per country.
I forlængelse af vores linje vil jeg gerne påpege, at jeg fin der, at vi bør optræde positivt i forhold til den styrkede udvidelsesproces, og jeg mener ikke, at vi bør opfatte vores rolle defensivt, som strenge kritikere eller censorer; vi skal støtte og ledsage de lande, som er ved at vinde demokratiet, konsolidere deres økonomi og lære om sameksistens.
Henderson, President-in-Office of the Council. - Mr President, I am very happy to indicate that it is the intention of the Presidency that the views of Parliament will be considered by the Council before a decision is made.
Vi skal optræde positivt.
There would be no purpose in having consultation...
Jeg har i dag hørt nogle indlæg, hvori det fremstod, som om vi konstituerede os i en slags storjury i forhold til disse lande.
... and. hearing the views unless they were going to be taken into account.
Og jeg mener, at det budskab, vi skal give, er positivt. tivt.
Of course they will be taken into ac count.
Derudover vil jeg gerne stille endnu et spørgsmål, hr. for mand for Rådet. Hvad menes der med appropriate opportunity ?
I will briefly return to the comments which were made about the short and medium term, because I have a feeling that we did not make that quite clear.
Menes der f.eks., at Europa-Parlamentet højst har seks uger eller, som hr. kommissæren sagde, tilstrækkelig tid til rådighed til at forhandle om disse informationer?
We have tried to explain this is in these partner ships when defining the priorities.
Og jeg forstår, at hvis dette kompromis bliver vedtaget af Rådet og Kommissio
And so we vote with reservations, to show that the National Alliance is obviously in favour of Europe and enlargement, but
Raschhofer (NI). - (DE) Hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, de central- og østeuropæiske ansøgerlandes førtiltrædelse til EU's politiske og økonomiske standarder er en absolut nødvendighed for på langt sigt at gøre det muligt at optage disse lande i EU uden samtidig at tilsidesætte medlemsstaternes beskyttelsesværdige interesser.
I would also like to assure Mr Titley - as a matter of fact, we have done so during earlier exchanges - that the entire aspect of enhancing the administrative and legal capacity of government bodies in the applicant countries is given a high priority everywhere. You cannot suddenly place this in the short term, for the simple reason that it usually con cerns processes which are so wide that you have to talk in terms of several years, although that does not mean to say you should not start immediately.
Tiltrædelsespartnerskaberne med ansøgerlandene er det
That is why a reorientation of PHARE has taken place, in which everything which has to· do with institution building and enhancing

pie dead. The authorities in Belgrade claim this was legitimate anti-terrorist action by the police.
ger størst mulig vægt på disse aspekter i tiltrædelsespartnerskaberne, således at de vil være rede til at slutte sig til os snarest muligt.
Those were a few comments I wanted to make in response to the questions which were asked.
Lad mig minde Dem om, hvad jeg har sagt.
Belgrade cannot pass off such repressive acts as purely an internal affair.
Sloveniens problemer er anderledes end Letlands på grund af de økonomiske, politiske og geografiske forhold.
We know to our cost from the early days of the Bosnian war that international divisions undermine our efforts.
Det er imidlertid rigtigt, at Parlamentet bør lægge vægt på, at udviklingen af demokrati og re spekt for retsregler er en prioritet, og at der vil blive taget skridt, hvis et ansøgerland udviser tydelige mangler i denne henseende.
Firstly, we issued an agreed state ment on 2 March condemning unreservedly the use of violence by either side and calling on both sides to resolve the situation through a full and constructive dialogue.
Jeg anser det i det hele taget for absolut nødvendigt, at Parlamentet inddrages i større omfang.
Oostlander (PPE), rapporteur. - (NL) Mr President, this point about the short and medium term was in fact the key point.
Kriterier for til trædelsespartnerskaberne, som opfattes som vigtige og ufravigelige, tilsidesættes nemlig foreløbigt, eller mulig hederne for at gennemføre meget omfangsrige og komplicerede foranstaltninger vurderes anderledes.
The strange thing is that thè Commissioner is now saying that it is to do with our expectations of when some thing might be achieved. In other words, when we speak of the independence of the legal courts, respect for the rule of law and equal access to public services, which have been mentioned in some cases in relation to the me dium term, this means that the Commission does not be lieve that the country concerned is prepared to achieve this independence, this access and so on, in the short term. -This is a completely different position, then; the issue is no longer the complexity of the process, but your assess ment of the willingness of a country to behave normally in the short term.
At dette bliver ændret, og at der bliver taget hensyn til Parlamentets holdning, er efter min mening et fælles anliggende for denne sal.
This surely cannot be the intention of this classification into short and medium term, Mr President? dent?
