Giscard d'Estaing om forfatningsudkastet i EP: - "Glem aldrig borgerne!"
Situation in Iraq - call to overcome divisions for victims of
Regeringskonferencen: 3 muligheder! Giscard pegede på, at regeringskonferencen har 3 muligheder:
Council and Commission statement on the situation in Iraq Debate: 03.09.2003
Under talen understregede Giscard d'Estaing, at vi politikere aldrig må glemme borgerne.
Parliament held one minute's silence in the wake of the violent terrorist attacks this summer.
Dels har man kun 2 lA måned, medens Konventets arbejde varede i 16 måneder, og der skal jo være enstemmighed på regeringskonferencen,
He said these people who attacked the UN headquarters in Baghdad, were attacking all the people who supported the rule of law and those trying to ensure a secure future for Iraq.
Men hvis man piller ved de enkelte dele i udkastet, vil man indgå en stor risiko, og der vil være fare for, at hele bygningen falder sammen,
Indeed, the Minister said that this had been a priority of the Italian Presidency.
Den bedste løsning vil være, hvis regeringskonferencen godkender forfatningsudkastet, som er modnet gennem 16 måneders arbejde i Konventet.
Ultimately, he remarked, those that aim to destroy the work of a coalition would fail since they were in fact acting against every actors' interests.
Selve forfatningsudkastet er ikke udtryk for den laveste fælles nævner men derimod ud tryk for det, der var muligt i Europa i 2003.
President Cox said he had immediately sent a letter to the UN Secretary General expressing the House's most profound sympathy and solidarity with the family, friends and colleagues of the victims.
Hvis vi var gået længere havde det ført til splittelse i det netop genforenede Europa.
The tragedy of the lost lives, he "stated, has touched the Parliament in personal and direct ways.
Vi er simpelthen gået så langt, som det var muligt, understregede Giscard d'Estaing.
Among the dead were a former parliamentary assistant and the brother of a member of staff.
Ratifikation og folkeafstemninger Giscard d'Estaing bad politikerne overveje, hvor alvorligt det vil være, hvis forfatningsudkastet kuldsejler.
The Minister also underlined the importance of the forthcoming Madrid reconstruction and donors' conference to be held from 22-24 October, and stated that the highest number of countries as possible should attend the meeting and as much financial aid for reconstruction as possible should be donated.
Husk på, at det skal ratificeres i 25 medlemslande, og ratifikationen giver langt fra sig selv - og nogle lande skal havefolkeafstemning.
Mr Frattini stated that it was in the European tradition to help those in need and that prewar divisions were now in the past.
Et beskåret forfatningsudkast kan let blive forkastet i
The EU, he stated, should help to rebuild and strengthen the Iraqi institutions for education.
EP-Ugen flere lande.
The Week led to the beginning of peace.
En forkastelse af forfatningsudkastet vil medføre en krise, som Europa ikke har brug for, og hvordan skulle man kunne komme ud af krisen?, sluttede Giscard d'Estaing.
One country's resources for reconstruction would not be enough, pointing to the US's $50bn deficit.
ventets arbejde havde været vellykket.
It would be for the international community to take joint actions, and make financial contributions at the forthcoming donor conference.
Men han tog afstand fra Konventets forslag om, at indføre "andenklasses kommissærer", hvilket vil gøre Kommissionen mindre gennemslagskraftig og troværdig og enheden i Kommissionen vil blive brudt.
Mr Brok was also concerned about the situation in Afghanistan, as he said there was not a fair distribution of power within the country.
Hvert med lemsland bør således have en kommissær med fuldgyldige beføjelser.
This he added, was also true for Iraq.
"Nytænke Europa " Den spanske PPE'er Iñigo Méndez de Vigo -der havde været medlem af Konventets præsidium - talte om "Konventets ånd", hvor medlemmerne havde været sig deres historiske udfordring bevidst, og hvor man ville "nytænke Europa".
Commissioner Chris PATTEN paid warm tribute to Sergio Vieira de Mello and condemned the bombing of 19 August, saying attacks on the UN should be seen as war crimes.
Resultatet var et mere demokratisk, gennemslagskraftigt og gennemsigtigt Europa.
He also underlined the need for a powerful International Criminal Court.
Ligevægten mellem in stitutionerne havde været ledetråden i Konventets arbejde.
Past disagreements between Europeans should now be overlooked, he added, saying it was time to turn to the future.
Og jo mere man fjerner sig fra Konventets tekst, desto sværere vil det blive at finde en ny balance. Fini var glad for Konventets tekst, der var et kompromis på højt niveau.
As to what the European Commission had done so far, he first paid tribute to ECHO (the EU Humanitarian Office).
3 ledende principper Den italienske udenrigsminister Franco Frattini understregede, at der er 3 ledende principper for det italienske EU-formand-skab for regeringskonferencen, som starter den 4. oktober i Rom:
In conversations with US officials, including Colin Powell, he had stressed the need for a multilateral framework - and he was sure the European Parliament would support no other approach.
Kritik af Prodi Den tyske socialdemokrat Klaus Hänselt -der ligeledes havde været medlem af Konventets præsidium - fastslog, at forfatningsudkastet var udtryk for et kompromis -men ikke for den laveste fælles nævner.
More troops, he stated, was not the answer. It was now important to set out a clear timetable for reconstruction of the country.
Hänsch gik imod forsøg på at pakke forfatningsudkastet op, for så ville man ende med en "Nice II-løsning".
He stated that the policy of pre-emptive strikes had clearly failed, and he also criticised the Bush Administration for not being prepared for post-war Iraq.
Han undrede sig derfor over Romano Prodis forsøg på at åbne pakken, idet man så risikerer at vende tilbage til studehandler på regeringskonferencer af den velkendte type.
Mr Barón Crespo also called on the UK and France to work more closely together.
Prodi skal holde op med dette - ellers ødelægger han Konventets arbejde.
Above all, he stated, the logic of occupation must change to a logic of sovereignty of Iraq for the Iraqis.
Der er behov for bred enighed om løsninger på endnu udestående punkter.
For the Liberal Group, Graham WATSON (ELDR, UK) paid tribute to Sergio Vieira de Mello and to other victims of the bombing.
Vi vil ikke acceptere laveste fælles nævner, idet forfatningen skal vare i lang tid.
He described the situation in Iraq as unstable and violent and said that, as so often, winning the peace was proving harder than winning the war.
Vor skæbne Klaus Hänsch pegede på det enestående med en forfatning for 25 lande som i århundreder har bekriget hinanden Vor generation af politikere har muligheden for - for første gang i tusind år - at samle kontinentet i frihed og fred. Det er vor skæbne at gøre dette, sluttede Klaus Hänsch.
The Commissioner said he believed everyone had learnt lessons from the Iraq conflict, one such lesson being that the EU was "incomparably more effective" when it worked together.
Frattini fastslog, at åbenhed og gennem skuelighed skal være nøgleord understrege ringskonferencen, der er en udfordring for alle - ikke kun for det italienske formand skab.
The failure to find weapons of mass destruction had raised doubts about the legitimacy of the war.
Vi har en forpligtelse over for vore borgere, sluttede den italienske uden rigsminister.
Now legitimacy must be restored through involvement of the UN and a government with a popular mandate.
Barón Crespo udtrykte glæde over, at EP har fået udvidede beføjelser i forfatningsudkastet, men beklagede samtidig at muligheden for flertalsafgørelser ikke havde fået større råderum.
Council, provide financial support and invite the Iraq Foreign Minister to address the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
Under ordførerrunden lagde den tyske kristdemokrat Hans-Gert PÖTTERING ud med at understrege, at Konventets arbejde har været et storslået projekt og at formålet med udkastet til en europæisk forfatnings-traktat er, at skabe et aktivt og demokratisk Europa.
Emma BONINO (I), for the Independent Members, endorsed Mr Cohn-Bendit's view that the US had made mistakes but that Europe had, as she put it, "no policy" on Iraq. Support for the reconstruction effort was not enough, nor was backing the UN, which was only the sum of its parts.
Han takkede Giscard d'Estaing for hans arbejde som formand for Konventet, og fremhævede, at Konventets arbejde har skabt grundlag for et fremtidigt handlekraftigt EU.
Rebuilding the country was crucial but the first need was to devise a genuine EU policy on Iraq.
Barón Crespo opfordrede repræsenanterne for det italienske formandskab til snarest at invitere EP til at deltage i regeringskonferencen.
Pernille FRAHM (EUL/NGL, DK) argued that the failure to find weapons of mass destruction showed that the UN inspectors should have been given more time.
Ligeledes opfordrede han til, at d'Estaing og næstformanden for Konventet indbydes.
Her group had said the arrival of foreign troops would be regarded as both a liberation and an occupation: they had been right.
Derudover lagde han vægt på, at regeringskonferencen ikke må foregå bag lukkede døre og fjernt for borgerne, men at det derimod er vigtigt, at processen forbliver åben og demokratisk.
The recent attacks showed that the Iraqi people felt "occupied" and that the occupation was generating tensions between different Iraqi groups.
Barón Crespo foreslog endvidere, at formanden for regeringskonferencen aflægger månedlig rapport til EP om for fatningsarbejdet.
The situation was also weakening the UN, although the USA now realised it needs the world body.
Han understregede, at ånden i Konventets arbejde skal fortsættes, således at processen bliver åben og transparent for de europæiske borgere.
She reminded the House that her group had nominated Hans Blix for the Sakharov Prize, to send a signal in support of the UN system.
Klar kompetencefordeling Ligeledes mente Pöttering, at de europæiske opgaver er blevet klart defineret med for fatningsudkastet, og at det nu er op til de enkelte medlemsstater nærmere at definere kompetencefordelingen.
Baroness Emma NICHOLSON (ELDR, South East) stated that Iraq now truly belonged to the Iraqi people. Her tortured past, under Saddam Hussein, was now over.
Pöttering frem hævede ligeledes, at forfatningsudkastet overholder subsidaritets- og proportionalitetsprincippet, og at der hermed er skabt en "udsøgt ligevægt mellem niveauerne på europæisk plan. ".
Bringing those responsible to justice, and securing Iraq's borders were now essential. Baroness Nicholson called for NATO to take control of military operations in Iraq.
Pöttering hilste forslaget om udvidede beføjelser til Europa-Parlamentet velkommen og under stregede, at det er centralt at der skelnes til resultatet af EP-valget i 2004, når der skal vælges ny Kommissions-formand.
This was essential, she stated, for the UN to carry out its work effectively. Europe, she remarked, has several decades of experience of rebuilding nations, it was now due time to call on this experience.
Sælge budskabet til borgerne Den skotske liberale Graham R. WATSON sagde, at den liberale gruppe fuldt ud kunne tilslutte sig Konventets udkast til en for fatning. Han mente, at det er centralt at bibeholde ånden fra Konventet i regeringskonferencen for at sikre, at de europæiske borgere får mulighed for at forstå EU.
For the Greens/EFA Group, Daniel Marc COHN-BENDIT (F) paid tribute to Mr De Mello and several of his co-workers.
Watson foreslog, at EP sender mindst tre re præsentanter til regeringskonferencens møder.
But since Saddam was gone, it was important to help the US and the UK overcome their isolation.
Han mente, at det på denne måde vil være lettere at sælge forfatningstraktatens budskab til borgerne.
The Governing Council, he argued, did not have the support of the Iraqi people and he stressed the need for the UN to have a central role in the economic and political transition in Iraq.
Uindfriede ønsker Den krist-demokratiske gruppe havde gerne set, at forfatningsudkastet havde medtaget en formulering om den kristne-jødiske arv i Europa, og havde ligeledes ønsket, at der blev indført flertalsafgørelser på det udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitiske område.
John HUME (PES, Northern Ireland) hoped that the war in Iraq would be the last war that the world ever had to face. He stressed the importance of the "philosophy of peace and the promotion of dialogué''' and stated that the EU should send these principles to areas of conflict.
Pöttering understregede dog, at det foreliggende udkast er det bedste kompromis, der kunne opnås, og at det er nødvendigt at teksten forbliver uændret.
The first half of the last century, he pointed out, had been extremely bloody, the second half much less so, and this was thanks to, in no small measure, the philosophy of the European Union.
Takfor kampen for Europa I tråd med Pöttering roste den spanske PSE'er Enrique BARÓN CRESPO forfatningsudkastet og Giscard d'Estaings arbejde.
The philosophy being the "respect for differences and the creation of institutions so as to work for a common interest."
Han mente, at d'Estaing havde valgt den rette
Difference, he said, was the "essence of humanity" since no two human beings were exactly the same.
Forfatningsudkastets skjulte ansigt Den franske socialist Francis WURTZ mente, at det liberale EU er overrepræsenteret i forfatningsudkastet, og at de, der ikke er liberale, dermed kommer til at fremstå som anti-europæiske.
Bastiaan BELDER (EDD, NL) for the EDD Group, asked what the EU institutions could do for the Iraqi people and concluded that they should recognise the Iraqi Governing
Han frem hævede, at konkurrenceaspektet fylder for

meget i udkastet, og at man overser centrale sociale og politiske områder. Wurtz omtalte problemet som "forfatningsudkastets skjulte ansigt".
Lastly, there must be an early transfer to the Iraqi people of the authority to manage their own affairs.
Et lille fremskridt f or EU Den belgiske grønne Monica FRASSONI understregede, at Konventets forfatningsudkast er etjremskridt J"or det demokratiske EU, bl.a. fordi Chartret om Grundlæggende Rettigheder er blevet indarbejdet i teksten.
of his own constituents, Dewi Pritchard of Bridgend, South Wales, a member of the UK Territorial Army and a military policeman, who had been killed in Iraq.
Hun efterlyste dog mere politisk innovation i udkastet, og sagde i den forbindelse, at det er en "alvorlig strategisk fejl", at Rådet styrkes og at princippet om enstemmighed i vidt omfang bibeholdes.
He went on to say it was clear that security and stability were now "paramount concerns" in Iraq. The Governing Council should receive full support.
Under Europa-Parlamentets debat om situationen i Irak var der bred enighed om, at FN bør inddrages til at løse problemerne i Irak.
And while the UN had a key role to play, calls for the UN to take over were misplaced.
Debatten fandt sted på baggrund af erklæringer af den italienske udenrigsminister Franco Frattini og EU's udenrigskommissær Chris Patten.
The US and UK forces must be strongly backed.
Flere talere pegede på, at de desværre havde fået ret, idet de havde advaret USA og Storbritannien mod krigen og mod en besættelse af Irak.
Mr Patten concluded by saying that there was a rocky road ahead and the sooner a start was made, the better.
Besættelsen er blevet langt dyrere end forventet - den koster USA 4 mia. $ om måneden - og man kan ikke løse problemerne.
The Foreign Affairs Committee will draw up a motion for a resolution on Iraq which will be voted on during the September II plenary session in Strasbourg.
Omfattende naivitet Charles PASQUA (UEN, F) fremhævede fejl og mangler ved Konventets arbejde, herunder at det har været præget af en "omfattende naivitet".
In his response to the debate, Minister Frattini, commented that the attacks on the UN were not only a problem for the coalition forces in Iraq but also for the entire international community. He stressed that terrorism, such as suicide bombings, could never be justified.
Han mente, at Konventets arbejde har været udemokratisk og underkendt den eneste sande suveræne: Det europæiske folk.
He called on the international community to look to the future and to overcome past difficulties.
Der har aldrig eksisteret et folkeligt mandat til forfatningsudkastet, og Pasqua mente derfor, at det eneste rigtige ville være, at sende udkastet til folkeafstemning i samtlige EU-lande.
Europe, he stated, should speak with one voice at the UN, and stated that it was an aim of the Italian Presidency to have a single seat for the EU at the UN.
Underminering af nationalstaten Lidt mindre kategorisk var William ABITBOL (EDD, F), der dog understregede, at borgerne i EU ikke kan identificere sig med forfatningsudkastet.
Motions for resolutions - EU-Cuba relations Doc.: B5-0365/2003, B5-0366/2003, B50367/2003, B5-0368/2003, B5-0369/2003, B50370/2003 Debate: 03.09.2003 Vote: 04.09.2003
Abitbol mente, at forfatningsudkastet er noget der "trykkes ned over hovederne på folk", og at EU i stedet for at underminere nationalstaten burde virke som en forlængelse af denne.
Alluding to Mr Hume's speech, he expressed respect for his views but said that on one point he differed: the international rule of law sometimes needed the sanction of force.
Et styrket FN Den italienske udenrigsminister Franco FRATTINI lagde i sin tale vægt på, at det netop nu, efter de nylige attentater i Irak, er vigtigt at styrke solidariteten i det internationale samfund.
The European Parliament adopted a resolution condemning the flagrant violation of civil and political rights in Cuba.
Frattini fremhævede, at det italienske formandskab arbejder aktivt for, at FN f år et styrket mandat i Irak, og håber at dette vil få bred tilslutning i FN.
It urged for the immediate release of all political prisoners.
Det er centralt, at det internationale samfund ikke bliver splittet i genopbygningen af Irak, da effektiv kriseløsning forudsætter en stærk multilateral indsats.
As soon as all prisoners are freed and arbitrary arrests have ceased the EU Council and Commission should determine a global policy towards Cuba.
Frattini sagde, at ved tagelsen af FN-resolution 1500 er et frem skridt, da den giver FN et særligt mandat til at bistå de lokale irakiske myndigheder i genopbygningen af landet.
MEPs condemned the 44-years old US embargo of Cuba, favouring instead a policy aimed at the adoption of positive measures such as the signing and application of international human rights treaties and encouraging both authorities and democratic opposition to work together for a peaceful democratic transition.
Han uddelte roser til FN for at handle med stor kompetence, og udtrykte sin sorg over Sergio Vieira de MELLOS og andre uskyldige ofres død ved attentatet på FN's hovedkvarter i Bagdad den 19. august 2003.
Such a policy should include incentives such as generous cooperation programmes, so as to improve respect for human rights at all levels.
Han besvarede selv spørgsmålene ved at fremhæve, at borgerne ønsker et europæisk samarbejde, hvor den nationale selv stændighed og de frie demokratier bibeholdes. holdes.
Parliament deplored the recent deterioration of the human rights situation in Cuba, with the arrests of and severe sentences after
Donorkonference Den 22. til den 24. oktober 2003 afholdes der en konference i Madrid, hvor de lande der bidrager til genopbygningen af Irak vil være tilstede.
He agreed with much of what had been said in the debate: on the need for a regional dimension involving the whole Middle East, the importance of the UN's role, the need to involve the people of Iraq (here he stressed the need to build democracy from the bottom up) and the lack of a European policy.
Frattini understregede, at det er centralt, at et størst muligt antal lande udviser vilje til at hjælpe med genopbygningen.
On the latter point he stressed that it was not enough just to sign cheques and he went on to say that the Madrid donors' conference must not just focus on the "contents of the collection box".
Derudover er formålet med konferencen, at definere de internationale organisationers rolle i genopbygningen af Irak.
A proper assessment of Iraq's requirements over the next 15 months was needed, together with ways of meeting those requirements.
Frattini lagde vægt på, at EU og det internationale samfund
There was a need for a multilateral umbrella in the form of a transparent international trust fund, separate from the Iraqi development fund and the coalition. Without such
Strasbourg I - 2003 allerede nu bør arbejde for, at endnu flere lande tilslutter sig genopbygningsarbejdet i Irak.
September I - 2003 national interests often gain the upper hand and prevent the EU acting more forcefully.
