Jose Manuel Barroso fastslog, at EU er mere end et marked, og at det sociale og kulturelle skal med. Der skal være social beskyttelse, og vi skal sikre den aldrende befolkning. Det af gørende er at udvidelsen og EU bliver en succes, sluttede Barroso.

Udvidelsen med de 10 nye medlemslande var en historisk begivenhed, og nu skal vi skabe velstand, solidaritet og sikkerhed i det udvidede EU..

Endelig sagde Pöttering, at PPE-gruppen forventer, at Barroso møder op i EP, når huset kræver det.
It will be a crucial moment and lead to a broad discussion on the kind of Europe that people want. The new
idet han henviste til Barrosos reformer i Portugal.
Commission, this Parliament and the Member States must be ready with answers.
Wurtz fremhævede, at EU skal være et Europa, der er solidarisk med hele verden og at man skal se længere og videre end blot til markedet.
We must make the case for Europe and this will be a huge communication challenge.
Endelig understregede Wurtz, at et nej til Barroso ikke er et nej til personen, men derimod et udtryk for et ønske om forandring.
To win that debate we should not have a technocratic approach. We need instead political leadership and courage."
Mangelfuld åbenhed og kontrol Jens-Peter BONDE fra ID-gruppen efterlyste en Kommissionsformand, der sikrer åbenhed og kontrol og som tør og kan tage ansvar.
Presidentdesignate of the Commission, José BARROSO started his address by emphasising that the European Parliament now represented some 450 million citizens.
Han fremhævede Kommissionsformand Prodis vilje til åbenhed og aktindsigt og kritiserede Barroso for ikke at udvise samme vilje.
He underlined that nation-states are stronger when they work together. He said the European Union was an example to other regions in the world.
Bonde understregede, at hans gruppe fortsat vil være i kritisk opposition og arbejde for fuld indsigt i lovgivningsprocessen.
Mr Barroso also underlined the values of the EU namely: freedom, respect for human rights, the rule of law, equal opportunities, social justice and solidarity.
Martin SCHULZ (PSE, DE) stillede en række spørgsmål til Barroso.
"In building our Partnership for Europe, we must recognise that the biggest challenge we face is not the Euro-scepticism of the few, but the Euro-apathy of the many.
Herunder ønskede han at vide om Barroso er manden, der kan fremme europæisk integration, om han kan sikre det sociale Europa eller om de sociale rettigheder vil blive udhulet under Barrosos lederskab.
We must listen to those that voted in last month's European elections. But we must also hear the silence of those, who for whatever reason, chose not to vote.
Endvidere ønskede Schulz at vide, hvorvidt Barroso vil arbejde for retfærdig verdenshandel, bæredygtighed og ressourcebevarende energipolitik. Schulz fremhævede, at proceduren bag udpegelsen af Barroso er uacceptabel og understregede, at dette ikke vil kunne gentage sig, hvis forfatningstraktaten realiseres.
Our goals are prosperity, solidarity and security. And for that we must show concrete results.
En af de sidste talere Christiana MUSCARDINI (UEN, IT) lagde fokus et helt andet sted end de forrige talere, idet hun tog udgangspunkt i den lave valgdeltagelse ved EP-valget i juni 2004.
He then set out the challenges facing the EU: "we must meet the challenges of globalisation.
Muscardini udtrykte bekymring for borgernes manglende identifikation med EU og understregede, at borgerne ønsker nærhedsprincippet håndhævet.
This means facing up to competition in open, global markets.
Endelig tilkendegav Muscardini sin støtte til Barroso og opfordrede ham til at arbejde for at gøre EU nærværende for borgerne.
It also means spreading prosperity and opportunity around the world.
Watson understregede, at den liberale gruppe ønsker en effektiv Kommissionsformand, der fremmer ligestilling i Kommissionen, arbejder for et sundt demokrati og en balance mellem fri handel og solidaritet. Watson tilkendegav, at ALDE-gruppen vil stemme for Barroso, hvis han vil følge denne linje.
We need to ensure thai we foster stability and invest for growth. This means sound public finances but also twenty-first century networks and strong services of general interest to knit our economies and continent together.
Et stort skuespil Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Verts/ALE, DE) betegnede den forudgående debat som et skuespil fyldt med floskler.
And together with education, these services must be more than ¡usi a safety net.
Han fremhævede, at den grønne gruppe vil have en politisk leder, der formår at svare på de spørgsmål han bliver stillet. Cohn-Bendit appellerede til den liberale gruppe om at stemme imod Barroso og dermed vise Rådet, at EP ikke vil acceptere at tingene foregår i det skjulte.
Our future success will depend on our willingness to take risks, be ready for change and to introduce reforms.
Tirsdag den 20. juli 2004 om formiddagen valgte Europa-Parlamentet den 57-årige spanske socialist Josep BORRELL til ny for mand for Europa-Parlamentet i de kommende 2 Vi år.
We must ensure that understandable public fears about new science are properly and democratically addressed.
Josep Borrell blev valgt i første valg runde, idet han fik 388 stemmer af de 647 afgivne stemmer.
We must deliver a better quality of life.
Dermed havde han opnået flere stemmer end de krævede 324 stemmer, som udgjorde det absolutte flertal af de afgivne 647 stemmer.
This means taking decisions now to create the right incentives for cleaner energy and cleaner transport.
Frygtfor overdreven liberalisme Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, FR) stillede spørgsmålstegn ved Barrosos politiske linje,
On the Constitutional Treaty he stated that "the Treaty consolidates and simplifies the Union. It strengthens our democratic base, by
Under pressekonferencen understregede Borrell, at det er meget vigtigt for Europa-Parlamentet at have et godt samarbejde med medierne.
EPP-ED leader Hans-Gert POETTERING (DE) said his group welcomed the unanimous proposal of the European Council that Mr Barroso should be President.
Borgerne har således ikke taget valget til Europa-Parlamentet alvorligt nok, hvilket man ser af valgdeltagelsen, som jo er faldet fra det ene Europa valg til det næste. Det er et stort problem, som EP ikke kan løse alene.
He welcomed the fact that Mr Barroso presented himself as a man from Portugal who felt at home in the heart of Europe.
EU og EP påvirker borgernes dagligdag, men det er måske nødvendigt at bruge et andet sprog, som almindelige borgere kan forstå.
We should all, he said, acknowledge the country we come from, Europe is not about giving up our nations, but bringing them together.
Han havde stor respekt for dem, der ikke havde stemt på ham, og han ønskede, at man kunne samarbejde.
We want a strong, independent Commission that is not subordinate to the governments.
Borrell pegede på, at det var et stort flertal, der havde støttet ham, hvilket betød, at EP ville forblive en stabil institution, og at han havde legitimitet som formand.
We think, he said, that you, Mr Barroso, are capable of that. But you know you can only be strong with the support of a large majority in the Parliament.
Forfatningstraktaten Josep Borrell understregede betydningen af, at vi får ratificeret forfatningstraktaten i alle EU-lande, og han pegede på, at hans eget land Spanien, bliver et af de første lande, der holder folkeafstemning om forfatningstraktaten.
We must live up to our international agreements in Kyoto and make sure that our partners do the same.
Folkeafstemningen bør ikke blive til et spørgsmål om en tillidsafstemning til den siddende regering, hvilket EU-afstemninger ofte er.
We must balance decisions today against their impact on growth, jobs and the environment tomorrow if we are to offer coming generations a truly sustainable future.
Dette skal være en folkeafstemning om Europa, og den nationale dimension må ud af valgkampen.
The construction of an area of freedom, security and justice remains one of our most important strategic objectives.
EP: Mere politisk synlig! Josep Borrell ærede den afgåede formand ireren Pat Cox, som havde været en strålende formand med respekt for alle.
The Commission should remain a driving force, helping to create the conditions needed for the removal of internal borders, and the strengthening of the Union external borders.
Cox havde været meget aktiv og gjort EP mere politisk synlig - bl.a. i forbindelse med Konventets arbejde.
Taking forward policies on immigration, asylum and on the integration of immigrants in our society are other key elements.
Borrell sendte en særlig hilsen til MEP'erne fra de 10 nye medlemslande, og han håbede snart at se MEP'er fra Bulgarien og Rumænien.
Terrorism is the biggest threat today to freedom in Europe and in the World. On the world stage, we must spread peace and stability.
Borrel håbede, at MEP'erne ville støtte ratificeringen af forfatningstraktaten - især i de lande, der skal have folkeafstemning. afstemning.
This applies as much to our nearest neighbours as to the support that we give to the role of international institutions such as the United Nations.
End videre står det i traktaten, at EP er Europa-Parlamentets hjemsted (Red.: Det indgår i Edinbourg-aftalen fra december 1992, hvor Danmark fik sine 4 forbehold/undtagelser).
He had also agreed that he and his Commissioners would come to the Parliament whenever they were requested to do so. We hope you will make the same commitment, he told Mr Barroso.
Borrell sluttede med at pege på nogle af de opgaver EU står over for i den kommende tid: • valget af ny Kommission, • finansielle perspektiver 2007-2013, • stabilitets- og vægtspagten efter EU-Domstolens dom, • kommende EU-udvidelser med nye medlemslande, • EP's nye beføjelser, samarbejde med de nationale parlamenter num.
When the Commission is confirmed, he continued, we will continue our task of control, but beyond party and national considerations, we need a partnership that will offer something real to future generations. We all believe in the future of Europe, he said, so the group would offer its support to Mr Barroso.
Små kontra store lande? En journalist fra Letland spurgte, om de små lande nu kan gøre sig gældende i det udvidede EU, og Josep Borrell svarede, at EU bygger på demokrati, hvor størrelsen ikke er så vigtig.
The European Union is an audacious experiment without precedent, he remarked. He said he was determined that the new Commission would work as a team.
Små lande skal ikke være bange for EU, idet der ikke er nogen modsætninger mellem de små og de store medlemslande.
In this context, he stated that he expected that the new Commission would have a larger proportion of women than all the previous ones.
Formanden for EU-Kommissionen italieneren Romani PRODI lykønskede Borrell med formandsposten og understregede, at Borrells
If one individual Commissioner does not meet his duties imposed by the Treaty, he said, he would ask the Commissioner to resign.
Efter at den spanske socialist Josep BORRELL var blevet valgt til formand for Europa-Parlamentet den 20. juli 2004 holdt han en pressekonference i EP's pressesal i Strasbourg, hvor journalisterne var mødt
In conclusion, Mr Barroso said his candidacy was as a politician ready to rise up above traditional left-right differences.

8 medlemmer udpeget til at være valg tilforordnede.
Could Mr Barroso be relied upon to help further the aims of Socialists?
erfaringer vil garantere et solidt formandsskab for EP.
Would he be a driving force for integration?
Han opfordrede Borrell til at fortsætte og udbygge det tætte samarbejde med Kommissionen.
He hoped that in the future a different procedure would select the Commission president, with party programmes and personalities being presented to the electorate together.
Under ordførerrunden fremhævede Hans-Gert PÖTTERING (PPEDE, D), at valget af Borrell som formand for EP skal sikre stabilitet.
Jens-Peter BONDE (DK) for the IND/DEM group stated that when Mr Barroso had answered questions in his group he had failed to provide full and transparent answers to questions on the Commission's many working groups.
Herunder appellerede Pöttering til, at EP fastholder sit ansvar og sikrer stabilitet ved på torsdag at stemme for portugiseren José Manuel DURAO BARROSO som ny Kommissionsformand.
He called for these to be fully provided and for the "so called whistleblowers" in the Commission to receive a pardon.
PPE-DE: PSE: ALDE*: Verts/ALE: GUE/NGL: IND/DEM**: UEN: NI (løsgængere):
What, asked Mr Watson, would this leave the ALDE to expect?
*ALDE = Gruppen Alliancen af Liberale og Demokrater for Europa **IND/DEM = Gruppen for Uafhængighed og Demokrati
There needed to be more democracy and respect for the dignity of individuals. The Mediterranean policy also needed to be implemented.
Unaturlig alliance Graham WATSON (ALDE, UK) fastholdt sin gruppes kritik af alliancen mellem PPE-gruppen og PSE-gruppen i valget af Borrell. Watson betegnede alliancen som "en unaturlig alliance, der ellers kun finder sted i krise- eller krigstider".
Daniel Marc COHN-BENDIT (FR ) for the Greens/EFA group stated that the previous speakers had "painted a very rosy picture where all of the EU's problem would be solved should Mr Barroso be approved'.
Endelig sagde Watson, at borgerne i EU er "dødtrætte af aftaler, der finder sted i baglokalerne".
The nonattached member Jean-Claude MARTINEZ (FR) said that many of Mr
Valg af EP's formand: Åbning af Aldersformanden
He would have to live with these as well as the defects of the Stability and Growth Pact.
Kandidaten for socialistgruppen spanieren Josep BORRELL pegede bl.a. på, at han havde været minister i Spanien i 12 år, at han havde været formand for Europaudvalget, og at han havde deltaget i Konventet om Europas fremtid, som jo førte frem til forfatningstraktaten.
Mr BARROSO, responding at the end of the debate on Wednesday, first of all addressed the Iraq dossier by saying that in Portugal, political parties had transcended past divisions by backing the latest UN resolution on the rebuilding of Iraq.
Borrell fastslog, at han var både spanier og europæer, ligesom han var catalonier.
As to EU-US relations, Mr Barroso stressed that a strong EU did not contradict strong EU-US ties.
Det ældste medlem af EP italieneren Giovanni BERLINGUER (ALDE) åbnede EP's konstituerende møde med at byde velkommen til samtlige medlemmer og særligt til medlemmerne fra EU's 10 nye medlemsstater.
He also called for a revitalisation of the Lisbon strategy and for all proposals to come with impact assessments and price tags. He concluded by endorsing Mr Barroso's candidacy and calling for Europe to do less, but do it better.
Berlinguer fremhævede, at Europa har udviklet sig fra at være et kul- og stålfællesskab til at blive et socialt EU, der integrerer borgerne og værner om de europæiske nationer.
He stated that he strongly backed "the Community method' and that a purely intergovernmental approach would lead to the break-up or possible "balkanisation" of the Union. To Mr Cohn-Bendit, he said there were better ways to "punish" the Council than attacking his candidacy.
Han understregede ligeledes, at EU repræsenterer et åbent Europa, der arbejder for fred, sikkerhed og kollektivitet.
Mr Barosso said he would seek consensus as Commission President and said that before being selected as Presidentdesignate he was the only Head of Government to back a socialist candidate for Commission President.
Josep Borrell understregede, at vi gennem transparens, værdighed og effektivitet skal fjerne de "skyggezoner", som stiller Europa-Parlamentet i et dårligt lys.
This meant an end to debates on process, institutional intricacies and flowery discussions of the meaning of Europe. It meant Europe focussing on what it does rather than how it does it.
Forfatningstraktaten er det bedste svar på Europas problemer, - for uden den er vi bare et stort marked.
Above all, he said, the focus should be on jobs, implementing the recommendations from Wim Kok, creating incentives for jobs and making work pay.
Alle medlemmer af Europa-Parlamentet bør derfor arbejde for at få ratificeret forfatningstraktaten. Borrell fastslog, at EU er et langsigtet projekt, som må tilpasses hen ad vejen, og han ville arbejde for et dynamisk Europa-Parlament.
It meant training and retraining workers, not paying to keep them out of work. It meant investing in people, as there could not be economic efficiency without social justice.
Efter indledningen forklarede Berlinguer de valgtekniske aspekter i forbindelse med valget af EP's formand.
He said his constituents did not doubt the legitimacy of the European Parliament, but they did not wish to be governed by it.
Herunder præsenterede han de tre kandidater til for mandsposten, nemlig spanieren Josep BORRELL (PSE), polakken Bronislaw GEREMEK (ALDE) og franskmanden Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL). Endelig blev
They wanted to be governed by their own Parliament and government — and he promised that they would be within the term of the present Parliament. His constituents, he continued, also rejected the draft Constitution as a document based on obsolete theories and outdated fears of war and
EP: Debatforum om Europas fremtid!
Response to the debate communism from the 1950s.
Kandidaten for ALDE­gruppe ­ den nydan­nede liberale gruppe ­ den tidligere polske udenrigsminister Bronislaw GEREMEK henviste til Martin Luther King, som havde sagt, at man ikke kan føre politik uden at have en drøm.
They saw the EU was inward looking, restrictive and bureaucratic — what they wanted was a flexible and outward looking community.
Det var Geremeks drøm at skabe et Europa præget af solidaritet, og Europa­Parlamentet skal være et symbol på et sådant Europa.
They did not want to be part of a federal state called Europe, he said.
Bronislaw Geremek pegede på, at der ér mange "euro-skeptikere", og at Europa-Parlamentet bør være et debatforum om Europas fremtid. EP skal spille en politisk rolle.
Finally, recalling that Margaret Thatcher had demanded the UK's money back in 1984, he said: "We want our country back — and we are going to get it. "
Virvar og krigseventyr Formandskandidaten for GUE­gruppen, den franske kommunist Francis WURTZ pegede på, at der i årevis havde været virvar på den politiske scene, og at fx. den daværende spanske premierminister havde støttet George W. Bush i hans krigseventyr.
On the Common Foreign and Security Policy, Mr Barroso stated that he was in favour of further developing a European defence identity and had already started working with Javier SOLANA. On Iraq, Mr Barroso underlined that no common EU position could be found.
Wurtz fastslog, at der er en kløft mellem fremtidskræfterne og højrekræfterne. Wurtz sluttede med at fastslå, at hans gruppe respekterede Geremek, men man kunne ikke støtte ham.
Foreign policy, he stated, is decided on "an intergovernmental basis.
20 EP-udvalg: Antal, medlemstal og sagsområder
He said he aimed to engage the US constructively, especially in the areas of environment and development policy.
Onsdag den 21. juli 2004 besluttede Europa­Parlamentet at nedsættefølgende udvalg:
He stated he could not pre-empt what the Commission was going to say but stressed that the Union was not based on religion.
"Først vælges formanden.
For these reasons, she said she would vote for Mr Barroso, but not without concerns.
Kandidaterne skal før hver valgrunde forelægges for alders­formanden, som bekendtgør dem for Parla­mentet.
She called for the Commission to continue to make up for cuts in US funding to NGOs and family planning bodies based on the Bush administration's opposition to abortion.
Har ingen kandidat efter tre valg­runder opnået absolut flertal af de afgivne stemmer, kan kun de to medlemmer, der ved tredje valgrunde har opnået det største antal stemmer, være kandidater ved fjerde valg­runde. ...
She said Mr Barroso seemed to be trying to be all things to all people, rather like Tony Blair.
Kun den valgte formand kan holde en åbningstale." (EP's forretningsorden artikel 14).
She wanted to know how he would deal with hard choices, and on what principles he would not compromise.
