Hr. Martin brugte dog et rigtigt ord. Han talte om de europæiske institutioners labyrint, og for dem, der husker den græske mytologi, fremkalder ordet labyrint umiddelbart billedet af et uhyre, nemlig Minotaurus.
Blot (NI). — (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I have just heard one of the rapporteurs, Mr Martin, say that he wants to get rid of the three pillars on which the European Union currently rests.
Hvem bliver vore dages Teseus, der kan befri os for Minotaurus?
He seems to have forgotten that, in architecture, when you destroy the pillars the roof caves in.
Det er sandsynligvis nationernes vilje, således som den kommer til udtryk gennem folkeafstemninger.
This is exactly what threatens to happen in this case.
Méndez de Vigo (PPE). — (ES) Hr. formand, i et foredrag, som Sir Winston Churchill holdt i 1946 på universitetet i Zürich, og som mange betragter som indledningen til den europæiske opbygningsproces, sagde han, at det var en meget enkel proces at nå frem til denne Europæiske Union: der kræves blot, at millioner af mænd og kvinder skal forpligte sig til at bære sig rigtigt og ikke forkert ad.
Tsatsos (PSE). - (EL) Mr President, in the building of unification the democratic principle is fundamental.
Endelig har betænkningen et vist uacceptabelt, manikæisk præg, således som vor kollega hr. Monteiro sagde det så udmærket for lidt siden.
At the same time, however, it lies at the very centre of what Europe has achieved institutionally and culturally and is thus binding on the Intergovernmental Conference in the legal sense as well.
Nu i 1995, mange år senere, hvad vil det så sige at bære sig rigtigt og ikke forkert ad? Jeg mener, at dette forslag til beslutning, udarbejdet af kollegerne Martin og Bourlanges, som jeg gerne vil lykønske oprigtigt for deres strålende arbejde, forsøger at give et svar på dette spørgsmål.
In an age when, happily, we have moved beyond the myth of the, as one might say, all-powerful constitutional law giver, the Intergovernmental Conference cannot detach itself from the European legal and cultural achievement when it lays the foundations for the new order of legitimacy in Europe.
Manikæisme var en religiøs sekt, der opfattede verden som en modsætning mellem det absolut gode og det absolut onde.
As to what democracy is, a once and for all definition of it will not do.
Der er de onde europæere og de gode.
Its meaning is replenished by historical development.
Forsvarerne for nationerne er rent faktisk også forsvarere for Europa, fordi de hindrer ensretning.
Now it is being called on to delimit the parameters of an historically new legitimate order, the European one.
Forsvarerne for et føderalistisk Europa bliver på grund af deres overdrivelser og deres vilje til at betvinge naturen sandsynligvis uden deres vidende den vigtig ste årsag til, at nationerne vågner op.
However, Europe is not simply a synthesis of human beings who happen to reside in a particular geographical area, but a synthesis also of historically and institutionally inscribed civilizations.
Det er for øvrigt allerede begyndt. Ved at ville påtvinge ensretning, selv mod staternes vitale interesser, fremprovokerer de uundgåeligt fuldstændige eller delvise opsplitninger. Jeg mener, at Europa bør respektere
These civilizations — the people of Europe who have brought about and who sustain and give legitimacy to the European achieve ment — combine with each other as of necessity in a relationship of equality.
At bære sig rigtigt og ikke forkert ad.
Firstly, any attempt to standardize Europe is an affront to good sense.
Jeg mener, at det efter Europa-Rådets møde på Korfu var nødvendigt at finde ud af, hvor Maastrichtaftalen havde svigtet, hvordan Maastricht aftalen var blevet gennemført, og hvad vi kunne gøre med henblik på fremtiden.
The 'à la carte' Europe which this report criticizes has always existed, since the very beginning. There was the European Community, there was the European Free Trade Area and there were the Eastern European prisoner states.
Svaret er dette forslag til beslutning.
An 'à la carte' Europe also exists today.
En ven og kollega har sagt, at vi har indskrænket os til at gentage nogle rituelle formuleringer.
Great Britain and Denmark benefit from special arrangements within the Euro pean Union.
Det er muligt, men forholdet er det, at disse formuleringer stadig er rituelle, fordi medlemsstaterne ikke har optaget dem i Traktaten. Og derfor gentager vi
Finally, an 'à la carte' Europe will continue to exist in the future, because that is in the nature of things and because progress always brings increased differentiation, in contrast to regression which brings levelling and standardization.
Méndez de Vigo til udtryk i hr. De Gaulles udtalelser for lidt siden.
Tsatsos all belong to political parties, some of them in government.
I den forbindelse kan jeg komme med en række bemærkninger.
That is Sir Winston Churchill's commitment, renewed today.
Jeg er enig med fru Spaak i, at hr. Bourlanges forslag om at udnævne en forsvarskommissær i den nuværende situation er præmaturt, set i forhold til den politiske udvikling.
to make — such as the implementation, without exception, of majority voting, run counter to the democratic principle in its new European meaning, counter to this principle which not only has applicability for the Intergovernmental Conference but is also binding on it.
Jeg ville foretrække at se et tæt samarbejde mellem Den vesteuropæiske Union, EU og Kommissionen, men ikke i den foreslåede form.
We should be heedful of that, and we should think of the observation not merely in terms of a free trade area, as it were, but rather, as consolidative in the building of Europe.
fortsat disse rituelle formuleringer, som vi politisk tror på, indtil de indføres i traktaterne. For Parlamentet vil ikke på noget tidspunkt ophøre med at anmode om, at procedurerne forenkles; ej heller vil det ophøre med at være fortaler for en udvidelse af medbestemmelsen; og det vil kræve at blive hørt i form af en betænkning ved enhver reform af traktaterne.
Cox (ELDR). — Mr President, following the contribution of my colleague, Mrs Spaak, I want on behalf of the ELDR Group to concentrate on the second and third pillars and to say, firstly, that the framing of a common defence policy is a challenge which must be addressed coherently in the 1996 Intergovernmental Conference.
Og politisk vælger vi ligeledes et europæisk integrationssystem. Det integrationssystem, som sætter Kommissionen i traktater nes midtpunkt og i integrationens midtpunkt.
The European Parliament's report is a profoundly significant political message.
Det drejer sig også om et politisk valg.
It is not a political manifesto of just local interest.
Med hensyn til Rådet vil jeg sige noget, der er indlysende, men som Rådet ikke vil forstå, nemlig at hvis vi ikke bevæger os hen imod stemmeflerhed ved afstemninger, blokerer vi Unionen permanent.
Sometimes when one hears the comments in relation to defence policy by some Members of this House and others involved in politics I wonder whether or not they understand the basis for wanting to press such a policy.
Det forstår enhver af vores medborgere undtagen de herrer, som sidder på Rådets bænk.
Nor is it founded in some sense of creating a new imperialism or a new colonialism.
Med hensyn til udgangspunktet vil jeg gerne sige, at vi i denne gruppe tror, at nogle eksisterende medlemsstaters alliancefri hed gør den eksisterende stabilitetsstruktur stærkere, men at vi i 1996 skal se, hvordan vi kommer videre.
Méndez de Vigo (PPE). - (£5; Mr President, in 1946 at Zürich University, in a speech which many regard as the beginning of the process of the building of Europe, Sir Winston Churchill said that the procedure for achieving this European Union was very simple: all that was needed was the commitment of millions of men and women for it to work well and not badly.
Som en del af udenrigspolitikken må vi have en aktiv politik vedrørende oprustning, hvilket vi aldrig får, så længe artikel 223 overlever i den nuværende form.
I think that this motion for a resolution drafted by our colleagues Mr Martin and Mr Bourlanges, whom I sincerely congratulate, as they have done an excellent piece of work, tries to measure up to that question.
FORSÆDE: Josep VERDE I ALDEA Næstformand
We have to recognize in real politics that all solutions are not tidy.
Og dette er kun begyndelsen.
Not all solutions are going to be found just in soft security and in diplomacy.
Det er ikke, som når vi stemmer om en lov i et nationalt parlament og sender den til Statstidende.
Sometimes, in the face of determined aggression, good will and decent diplomacy simply are not enough.
Dette er kun det første trin, og vi medlemmer af Parlamentet må fra nu af, efter vedtagelsen af denne betænkning, gribe vores pilgrimsstav og gå ud til vore medborgere og forklare dem, hvad det er for et Europa, vi vil have.
We have seen that words and diplomacy have failed against determined Serbian aggression and those who believe that we have a problem of conscience about Bosnia must believe in the development of a defence ethic as an extension of an active foreign policy.
Vi må også udføre en anden meget vigtig funktion.
We saw in 1938 that words on a sheet of paper about peace in our time added up to nothing in the face of determined aggression.
Vi tilhører alle et politisk parti, nogle et regeringsparti.
Those are the foundations and the rationale as to why we need to develop a coherent defence strategy.
Vi skal overbevise disse politiske partier, som går ind for de samme principper og værdier som os, om nødvendigheden af reformen.
In that context I would reject, although it related not to defence but monetary matters, the kind of mean-spirited and narrow-minded nationalism portrayed in the remarks of Mr De Gaulle several moments ago. Wc have to find a common cause and build on it.
Det var den forpligtelse, Sir Winston Churchill talte om, og som i dag er blevet fornyet.
I would prefer to see a close association between WEU and between the EU and the Commission, but not in the form suggested.
Det har vi grund til at fejre. Men europæiske regeringer har også i denne periode ført krig i andre verdensdele.
To work well and not badly.
Hvad indebærer dette konkret?
The answer is this motion for a resolution.
FN og Organisationen for Sikkerhed og Samarbejde i Europa nævnes overhovedet ikke i teksten.
One friend and colleague said that we were merely repeating ritual formulae.
Det gør derimod Den Vesteuropæiske Union, hvis funktioner Unionen åbenbart skal overtage.
That is possible, but they remain ritual formulae, because the Member States have not taken them into the Treaty.
Cox (ELDR). — (EN) Hr. formand, efter indlægget fra min kollega fru Spaak vil jeg gerne på vegne af ELDR-gruppen koncentrere mig om den anden og tredje søjle og først sige, at udformningen af en fælles forsvarspolitik er en udfordring, som skal løses på konsekvent vis på regeringskonferencen i 1996.
And therefore we shall go on repeating these ritual formulae in which we have a political belief until they are adopted into the Treaties, because this Parliament will never cease to ask for its procedures to be simplified; nor will it cease advocating an extension of co-decision; and it will demand that, in any reform of the Treaties, it shall be consulted by means of the assent procedure.
Når jeg hører kommentarer til forsvarspolitik fra nogle af parlamentsmedlemmerne eller fra andre, som er involveret i politik, spørger jeg undertiden mig selv om, hvorvidt de forstår baggrunden for ønsket om at fremme en sådan politik.
Similarly we also opt politically for a system of European integration, for that system of integration which places the Commission at the heart of the Treaties and the heart of integration.
Det er baseret på et sæt sammenfaldende interesser, som vi skal se på ud fra gensidig solidaritet, men også international solidaritet og engagement.
That is also a political option. Others today have spoken against it, but we are in favour of keeping the Commission at the heart of integration.
Presses ØMU igennem i overensstemmelse med den foreliggende tekst, bliver Unionen efter min opfattelse desværre nødt til at acceptere yderligere omkring en million arbejdsløse.
I wonder why in the Martin/Bourlanges report we talk about having a common defence policy guaranteeing the safety of the Union borders, but stop short of calling for a mutual defence obligation.
Det er fuldt foreneligt med europæisk politik at mene noget sådant.
Why do we stop short of that?
Florio (FE). — (IT) Hr. formand, det har gjort et vist indtryk på mig at høre, at en af de to ordførere her til morgen, hr. Bourlanges, i praksis ikke kender indholdet af den betænkning, som også bærer hans underskrift, idet han siger, at han alene har gjort sig til talsmand for tendenser, han er stødt på her i Parlamentet.
I want to say in respect of the starting-point that we in this group strongly believe that the non-alignment of some existing Member States adds to the stability structure that we now have, but what we have to do in 1996 is to see how we build beyond that.
Dette er baggrunden for, at det er nødvendigt at udarbejde en konsekvent forsvarsstrategi.
Our report also offers clear political options, as opposed to an à la carte Europe, in favour of economic and monetary union, but also linking extension with a study of the Union's financial prospects.
Nu mener jeg, at man skal have modet til ikke altid at gøre sig til talsmand for tendenser, men i stedet udtrykke sine egne idéer, så meget mere når de — som hr. Bourlanges viste — er tendensmæssigt modige.
Let me mention Amendment No 4 on Article 223, which deals with security issues and the right of states to address national interests.
Jeg er derfor overbevist om, at han
My group wants to see that removed.
Florio ikke har ydet det store bidrag, han havde kunnet give Parlamentet, hvis han modigt var gået i dybden med sine egne idéer.
IN THE CHAIR: Mr VERDE I ALDEA Vice-President able to withdraw from the Union.
I dag skal vi stemme om en betænkning, som utvivlsomt er utilfredsstillende, fordi den ikke indeholder mange af de temaer, som Parlamentet skulle have gjort til sine.
I have so many other things to say, Mr President, but my time is running out so I should like to end by saying that we will not be approving this report because we do not consider that it respects the principles of the great parliamentary democracies of the world, which we believe any plan for a united Europe should respect.
Jeg vil hurtigt citere nogle af dem.
What does that mean in concrete terms?
Der er ikke i denne betænkning nogen henvisning til det fundamentale problem med et europæisk forfatningscharter, som opregner de få fundamentale, simple regler, inden for hvilke man kan bevæge sig, og som især etablerer det hierarki af retskilder, som vi i dag ikke kender inden for den europæiske struktur.
The United Nations and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe are not mentioned at all in the text. It does however mention the Western European Union, whose role the Union is clearly set to take over.
Endelig er narkotikamisbrug og den stigende kriminalitet i forbindelse hermed blandt de væsentligste sociale problemer i Europa i dag, og på regeringskonferencen bør man vurdere, hvordan Unionen bedst kan spille en betydelig rolle i bekæmpelsen af disse problemer.
Collins, Gerard (RDE). — Mr President, the draft agenda for the 1996IGC now under discussion in the Council of Ministers includes such weighty topics as the legislative and budgetary systems of the European Union, voting mechanisms in the Council of Ministers, the powers of the European Parliament and the numerical strength of the Commission.
Man henviser ikke til det fundamentale problem med Europa-Parlamentets initiativret, uden hvilken vi aldrig bliver et rigtigt parlament.
While all of these issues are of great interest to specialists in European affairs and are certainly of very great importance in determining the division of responsibilities between the Member States and the European Union and between the different EU institutions at European level, none could be said to be of major interest to the wider population or of immediate concern in their daily lives.
Hvis vi faktisk mener, at Rådet bør være staternes regering, bør vi også stille os spørgsmålet, hvorledes denne staternes regering skal vælges, for det er bestemt ikke tænkeligt, at det i en plan for gennemført demokrati er 15 personer — de 15 regeringschefer — som skal vælge det ene af de to kamre.
The sections on the common foreign and security policy are difficult to accept — especially for non-aligned countries — even though they have been toned down to some extent.
I et demokrati med 400 millioner mennesker tror jeg ikke, at det i det lange løb vil være acceptabelt.
If EMU is forced through on the basis of the text we have here, I think that the Union will have to cope with about a million more unemployed.
Det er en drøftelse blandt europæere, og når jeg kritiserer denne betænkning, gør jeg det som europæer.
The democratic standing of the Union should be strengthened by giving the national parliaments a considerably greater role in the Union than that proposed in this report.
Denne betænkning, som vi skal debattere i dag og træffe afgørelse om i morgen, er strategisk uheldig.
Even for many of those in my home country who voted Yes to Swedish membership, this report would be difficult to accept.
Vi er især personligt og som gruppe uenige i den hypotese, hvorefter de enkelte medlemsstater kan udtræde af Unionen.
Once the IGC begins next year it will be open to individual Member States to bring forward new issues for discussion and negotiation.
Hvis denne plan eksisterer, og hvis vi tror på denne plan, må vi konsolidere unionen af de nationer, der allerede udgør den europæiske struktur, inden vi tænker på en yderligere udvidelse, hvis vi ikke vi foretage en farlig undergravning af unionsplanen.
I hope that national governments will take the opportunity to broaden the terms of reference of the IGC to include issues which are of concern to the general population of the 15 Member States.
Jeg havde endnu mange ting at tilføje, hr. formand, men til sidst vil jeg gerne sige, at vor vurdering af denne betænkning ikke er positiv, for vi kan ikke se, at den følger i kølvandet på de store parlamentariske demokratier, således som udkastet til europæisk union efter vor opfattelse nødvendigvis må.
Florio (FE). — (IT) Mr President, I was somewhat disturbed to hear one of this morning's two speakers disassociate himself from the content of the report which bears his signature too, saying that he was merely interpreting the general mood of this Parliament.
Denne betænkning står også i selve Parlamentet på svage fødder. 670 ændringsforslag, som næppe er blevet læst og ikke er blevet drøftet, i morgen igen 250 ændringsforslag, som næppe bliver oversat, ikke bliver læst og ikke bliver drøftet.
I believe one should have the courage not always to act as the mouthpiece of the general mood but to express one's own opinions, especially when — as Mr Bourlanges himself pointed out — they are courageous ones.
Det bidrager ikke just til at øge Parlamentets anseelse, det svækker snarere dets troværdighed over for borgerne.
I am therefore convinced that he has failed to make the contribution he could have made if he had fearlessly expressed his ideas in detail.
Det har ikke levet op til sit løfte om at sætte en europæisk debat om sit standpunkt i gang.
One such issue is the alarming growth in the use and abuse of illegal drugs in all our communities, both urban and rural, in recent years.
Betænkningen lader endvidere hånt om udviklingen af en effektiv, økologisk og social alliance i Europa.
I have put forward a proposal to give one Commissioner specific responsibility for tackling the illegal drugs trade and the international crime associated with this evil trade.
Denne betænkning gør kort sagt ikke andet end, hvad mange hårdnakket gør, den tager endnu et skridt i retning af centralisering, endnu et skridt i retning af forbundsstaten Europa, uden at folk i Europa har givet udtryk for accept.
National police, customs and naval protection services are doing everything in their power to combat the menace of illegal drug smugglers along well-known supply routes such as the south and west coast of Ireland.
Gerald Collins (RDE). - (EN) Hr. formand, det dagsordensforslag for regeringskonferencen i 1996, som nu diskuteres i Ministerrådet, indeholder så betydningsfulde emner som lov givnings- og budgetsystemerne for Den Europæiske Union, afstemningsprocedurer i Ministerrådet, Europa-Parlamentets beføjelser og Kommissionens talmæssige styrke.
Their work would be greatly assisted by increased international cooperation both in terms of gathering intelligence on the activities of the drug smugglers and in allocating resources to the often hard-pressed services tackling the problem at national level.
Mens alle disse emner er af stor interesse for specialister inden for europæiske anliggender og af stor betydning ved fordelingen af ansvar og kompetence mellem medlemsstaterne og Den Europæiske Union og mellem de forskellige EU-institutioner på europæisk plan. kan man ikke sige, at de er særlig interessante for den brede befolkning, eller at de har den store interesse for deres dagligdag.
I believe that a Commissioner appointed specifically to tackle the drugs' menace, backed up with a significant allocation of money from the EU's annual budget, could act as a catalyst in confronting this evil in our society.
Det er ikke sket.
I will point out just a few of them.
Indledningen til en sådan proces skal være præget af fornuft. Nationalstaten skal overvindes, men den kan ikke overvindes ved, at der grund lægges en ny europæisk nationalstat.
The report fails to mention the basic issue of a European Constitutional Charter setting out the fundamental rules, just a few simple rules to abide by, in particular, establishing a hierarchy of sources of the law which does not currently exist in the European structure.
Når regeringskonferencen starter næste år, vil de enkelte medlemsstater kunne fremsætte ny punkter til diskussion og forhandling.
Finally, drug abuse and the growth of crime associated with this abuse are amongst the most pressing social issues confronting the people of Europe today and the IGC should assess how best the Union can play a worthwhile and significant role in tackling these problems.
Jeg håber, at de nationale regeringer vil benytte lejligheden til at udvide regeringskonferencen til også at omfatte emner, som berører den brede befolkning i de 15 medlemsstater.
There is no mention of the fundamental problem of the European Parliament's power of initiative, without which we will never become a real Parliament.
Et sådant emne er de seneste års alarmerende vækst i brug og misbrug af ulovlige stoffer overalt i samfundet, både i by og på land.
As regards the Council, there is no mention of the way in which it might be elected in future.
Jeg har fremsat et forslag om at give en kommissær ansvaret for at løse problemet med handel med narkotika og den internationale kriminalitet, som er forbundet med denne onde handel.
If we believe that the Council should be a Chamber of Countries, we must also deal with the question of how this Chamber of Countries will be elected.
De nationale politistyrker, told- og søfartsmyndigheder gør, hvad de kan for at bekæmpe truslen fra illegale narkotikasmuglere, der arbejder ad velkendte ruter — f.eks.
It is unacceptable in a fully democratic structure for 15 people, the heads of 15 governments, to elect one of the two chambers.
Der må ikke komme en ny europæisk nationalisme, som allerede igen er inden for rækkevidde i besværgelsen af myten Europa.
Voggenhuber (V). — (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentle men, in the debate that we have been holding in the last few weeks, the question is not whether Europe should join closer together and whether European integration should be intensified, but rather how this is to take place.
Viljen til en europæisk fredsordning må ikke munde ud i en ny militærpakt eller en ny stormagt.
It is a debate among Europeans, and if I criticise this report I do so as a European.
