Status over EU's udvidelse med 10 ansøgerlande: Bred enighed om det "historiske projekt'•i •i
With regard to Cyprus, he called for greater efforts from all sides to unify the island and the Commission preferred accession of a united Cyprus, but repeated that it was not a precondition for accession.
Onsdag den 9. oktober 2002 holdt Europa-Parlamentet en stor debat om EU's udvidelse med 10 ansøgerlande i 2004.
Enlargement - Ten countries setto join in 2004
EU-Kom-missionen havde samme morgen vedtaget statusrapporterne - de såkaldte karakterbøger - der anbefaler, at 10 ansøgerlande slutter optagelsesforhandlingerne i december, og bliver egentlige medlemmer af EU fra begyndelsen af 2004.
He concluded by stating the historical importance of enlargement, outlining that the advantages go far beyond simple economics. He said that enlargement would lead to stability in the region, unity, and the largest single market in the world.
Under EP-debatten var der bred enighed om det "historiskeprojekt", som EU-udvidelsen med 8 central- og østeuropæiske lande samt Cypern og Malta jo er.
He continued by stating that initially, the financial costs may be high, but the costs of non-enlargement were much higher.
Udestående problemer Romano Prodi fremhævede den store indsats, som kandidatlandene har gjort for at opfylde de økonomiske og politiske kriterier og ikke mindst for at overtage den gældende EU-lov-givning.
Following the publication of the latest Commission report on progress towards enlargement, President Romano PRODI opened the debate.
Der udestår problemer på en række områder, men Kommissionen vil samarbejde med de pågældende lande for at løse problemerne inden tiltrædelsen, sagde han.
He remarked that three years ago the Commission had set enlargement as its number one priority, the Commission, he said, had respected this priority and now Europe was seeing the rewards of this.
Kommissionsformanden opfordrede de irske vælgere til at sige ja til Nice-traktaten for ikke at sætte udvidelsen på spil. Han udtrykte også håbet om, at forhandlingerne om Cyperns fremtid kan afsluttes inden årets udgang, så et forenet Cypern kan blive optaget i EU.
Today's report, he said, recommends that 10 countries join the EU in 2004, namely: Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia.
De fleste talere var tilfredse med måldatoen 2007 for Rumæniens og Bulgariens EU-medlemskab.
With regard to Bulgaria and Romania, the joint aim of the Commission and these countries would be for accession in 2007.
Endelig var der tilfredshed med de enorme fremskridt Tyrkiet har gjort i de sidste 18 måneder på menneskerettighedsområdet, men der var også enighed om, at det var en god ting, at man ikke har fastsat nogen dato for starten på udvidelsesforhandlingerne med Tyrkiet
Turning to Turkey, President Prodi said, that good progress had been made, but increased resources were necessary and the Commission would be drawing up new agreement with Turkey offering extra prenegotiation finance of up to €250 million.
En europæisk forfatning? Romano Prodi lagde vægt på de store fordele ved udvidelsen, herunder politisk stabilitet og økonomisk vækst. I sammenligning hermed er de økonomiske omkostninger ved udvidelsen meget beskedne, understregede han.
In his address to the House, the Commissioner responsible for the enlargement negotiations Günter VERHEUGEN emphasised the political importance of taking on board 10 new countries.
Til gengæld vurderede han, at en udvidelse med ti nye medlemsstater vil stille krav om grundlæggende reformer af de europæiske institutioner.
The countries concerned made great efforts to justify the Commission's decision, but he underlined the fact that there was no attempt to hide any problems involved.
Han gik ind for en europæisk forfatning, der skal garantere borgernes rettigheder og definere institutionernes rolle.
Nevertheless he took the view that there was not any outstanding issue that could not be resolved by 2003 and any criticism should be seen in this light.
EU skal være et forbund af folk og stater, konkluderede han.
He added, however, that the Commission wanted a safeguard clause to guarantee that, during the first year of accession, there would be no threat to internal market rules in the countries concerned.
Formanden for Europa-Parlamentet, Pat COX, understregede, at udvidelsen er en ene stående forsoningshandling, hvor frie folk går sammen om at skabe et kontinentalt værdifællesskab.
This was not because of any inherent risk to the internal market but rather because the EU had not seen an enlargement on this scale in the past.
Parlamentet vil gøre alt for at fjerne de sidste hindringer for udvidelsen inden topmødet i København i december, fastslog han.
He then appealed to the electorate in Ireland to vote in favour of the Nice Treaty and for national governments to be flexible in looking at the financial package.
Største projekt i EU's historie Den tyske EU-udvidelseskommissær Günter VERHEUGEN understregede, at vi nu befinder os i en vigtig etape ved afslutningen af det største projekt EU har gennemlevet.
He did however point out certain shortcomings in the candidate countries including the administrative capacity to deal with EU legislation, high levels of corruption and the illegal trafficking of human beings.
Ti lande klar til EU-medlemskab Kommissionsformanden, Romano PRODI, mindede bevæget om, at udvidelsen har været en hovedprioritet i hans embedsperiode.
The aim, he said, would be to have the Accession Treaties ready for the Spring European Council in 2003.
Han glædede sig over at kunne meddele, at ti kan didatlande efter Kommissionens mening vil kunne afslutte tiltrædelsesforhandlingerne inden udgangen af 2002, således at til trædelsen kan finde sted i 2004. Det drejer sig
The President said that he was confident that the Irish people would ratify the Treaty of Nice and he regarded Nice as essential for enlargement to take place as the Commission had planned.
Han fastslog, at de 10 ansøgerlande har fortjent dette, idet de har gjort en fremragende indsats i de sidste 10 år.
He committed the Commission to helping these countries as much as possible in the run up to this date.
Verheugen fremhævede, at Kommissionen ikke vil fortie, udelukke eller forskønne noget, men at man ikke har kunnet identificere et problem, der
As to Turkey, he felt that there had been more progress in the last
Oktober I - 2002 togførere er klar, og fløjten har lydt i dag, sluttede Bertel Haarder.
He then recalled the lead taken by Poland and, in particular, democracy movements such as Solidarnosc which he emphasised had been the basis for the reunification of Germany.
ikke kan løses inden udgangen af 2003.
He also wanted to ensure that there would be no discrimination in the Czech Republic.
Men hvis køreplanen skal overholdes, så skal 3 krav opfyldes:
After welcoming progress in Bulgaria and Romania, he then acknowledged that his group was divided in its attitude towards Turkey but did emphasise its importance as a strategic partner for the EU.
Han appellerede her til de irske vælgere og mindede om, at Europas fremtid står på spil,
It was, therefore, important to leave the door open and encourage Turkey to continue with improvements.
Der skal opnås enighed om den nødvendige "finanspakke" under EU-topmødet i Bruxelles 24.25. oktober, og han opfordrede derfor stats- og regeringscheferne til den nødvendige velvilje og smidighed og
No new obstacle should be put in the way of enlargement and he felt, tackling outstanding problems such as crime, the environment and unemployment would be done through the dynamics of the enlargement process itself.
Kommunistisk tyranni Formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske kristelige demokrat Hans-Gert PÖTTERING (PPEDE, D) understregede, at udvidelsen med de 10 lande er den hidtil største udfordring for EU.
For the EPP-ED, Hans-Gert POETTERING (D), while commending the Commission for its efforts in preparing the way for enlargement, did however regret the leaks of the past few days which had meant that the European Parliament was not the first body to be informed of the Commission's recommendations.
Han kritiserede i den forbindelse, at pressen var blevet informeret før EP, idet indholdet i fremskridtsrapporterne var sivet ud i de seneste dage.
It was, however, important to recognise the enormous strides that had been taken in the candidate countries, especially in view of the fact that previously they had undergone 50 years of communist rule.
Efter 50 år med kommunistisk tyranni har de Central- og Østeuropæiske lande gjort en enorm indsats, men der er stadig meget at gøre.
While recognising that there was still much that remained to be done, he warned
Ansøgerlandene bestræbelser.
Graham WATSON (South West) for the ELDR group said that enlargement was not a one-off exam, but rather a continual assessment.
Pöttering tog afstand fra at opstille nye hindringer for udvidelsen, som at den fælles landbrugspolitik først skal reformeres.
The Week strong Europe but called for Turkey to be excluded from the enlargement process.
Han fandt det korrekt, at man ikke havde fastsat nogen startdato for udvidelsesforhandlinger med Tyrkiet og mindede om, at Tyrkiet er en vigtig strategisk partner, men at der er uenighed om, hvorvidt Tyrkiet bør tilbydes EU-medlemskab.
Replying to the debate, President Prodi said that through negotiations the candidate countries had gone through a profound democratic process and that set them in good stead for the future.
Pöttering sluttede med at advare mod, at der opstår et nyt jerntæppe mellem Polen og Ukraine.
referenda in several countries would have to be won, and those that compared the European Union to the Soviet Union were comparing the incomparable.
Rumænien, Bulgarien og Tyrkiet Verheugen fastslog, at Kommissionen vil gøre alt for, at Rumænien og Bulgarien kan blive EU-medlemmer i 2007. Han under stregede, at Tyrkiet har gjort flere fremskridt på menneskerettighedsområdet i de sidste 18 måneder end i de 50 forudgående år.
His group welcomed 2007 as a target date for Bulgaria and Romania to accede. He called on the Commission to give greater support to Turkey to show that "Europe was not a Christian club."
Derfor bør vi opmuntre Tyrkiet ad denne vej.
Iraq - support for action through the UN
EU står åben for Tyrkiet, der er på rette vej.
For the GUE group, Francis WURTZ (F) pointed out some of the practical problems of enlargement such as the negotiating strategy of the Commission with a "take it or leave it" mentality.
Verheugen sluttede med at erindre om, at der stadig er megen skepsis omkring udvidelsen i de gamle EU-medlemslande, men det skyldes mangel på information.
His group, however, did welcome enlargement, but stated that the money offered to candidate countries was insufficient and reminded the present 15 Member States of the trade surplus they have with Central and Eastern European countries.
Det er vor opgave at forene Europa, et Europa med velstand.
Gerard COLLINS (Munster) for the UEN group said that passion for enlargement needed to be matched by pragmatism.
Titley mindede om de kritiske røster, der siger, at udvidelsen er for dyr.
He congratulated Turkey on the political reform over the last year and a half.
Men det ville være langt dyrere ikke at udvide, og det vil kun koste 1/10 af det, den tyske genforening har kostet.
He also called on both parties in Cyprus to accept a UN settlement as the only way to achieving a united Cyprus.
Toget klar til afgang Den fungerende rådsformand, Europaminister Bertel HAARDER, takkede Kommissionen for en stor indsats i forbindelse med udvidelsesforhandlingerne.
Updating MEPs on the situation with regard to Iraq since the issue was last debated in Strasbourg on 4 September 2002, Bertel HAARDER, on behalf of Council, referred to the new resolution before the UN Security Council which would require a shorter deadline for weapons inspectors to be allowed into the country. What was now an issue was access to the Presidential Palace, he said.
Han konstaterede, at ti lande vurderes at opfylde de politiske og økonomiske kriterier for EU-medlemskab, mens Bulgarien og Rumænien har brug for en yderligere tidsfrist.
It was, he felt, still too early to comment on the new situation other than to repeat that the EU emphasised the need for broad international support for any action through the UN.
Han tilskyndede Tyrkiet til at fremme de interne reformer med henblik på at opnå medlemskab på et senere tidspunkt.
It was essential for a credible system of inspection to be established and he noted the positive reaction of President BUSH to follow a UN approach.
Han understregede, at en genforening ikke er forudsætning for Cyperns EU-medlemskab.
Jens-Peter BONDE (DK) for the EDD group was of the opinion that Nice Treaty was not a requirement for enlargement to take place.
I en hilsen til de irske vælgere mindede han om, at omkostningerne ved ikke at udvide EU er langt større end omkostningerne ved udvidelsen.
Hungary and Turkey, he said, both deserved a greater number of votes in Council and said that formula used to calculate this was too complicated.
Derfor blev sporet lagt i Helsinki, og toget kører nu videre mod fred, demokrati og velstand på hele kontinentet, hvor næste station er Bruxelles, og sidste station er København, sagde han. De danske
He called for candidate countries to be allowed to keep their present legislation on land purchase but overall his group was in favour of enlargement.
Vi må derfor ikke sidde og vente på det perfekte, og derved tabe denne historiske mulighed på gulvet. Udvidelsen og EU-reformer bør derfor gå hånd-i-hånd. Som Elvis Presley sang: "Det er nu eller aldrig.
For the Commission, Chris PATTEN felt there was not really much he could add and echoed his support for working within the UN framework to keep the pressure on Iraq and, while he welcomed the diplomatic initiatives in the Arab world to persuade Saddam HUSSEIN to allow the return of UN weapons inspectors, in view of his previous behaviour, this should be treated with a degree to scepticism.
1 morgen er det for sent", sluttede Gary Titley, hvorefter EP-formand Pat COX svarede "Tak, Elvis" inden han gav ordet til næste taler
Frank VANHECKE (IND, Β) as an independent Member was in favour of a
Watson understregede, at EU ikke er en "lukket kristen klub", og at Tyrkiet skal tilbydes en før-tiltrædelsesordning.
She then recalled the various crimes and violations committed by the Iraqi leader.
Danske "sommerhus-protokol" Jens-Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen understregede, at JuniBevægelsen er kritisk over for ansøgerlandenes vilkår ved ud videlsen, men at man trods alt vil stemme ja.
that Saddam has used the period of the absence of the inspectors to build weapons of mass destruction although he felt there was room for debate over just how much danger this armoury posed.
Det er således en skandale, at man vil snyde Ungarn og Tjekkiet med deres antal af MEP'er, og det nye vægtningssystem i Ministerrådet er umuligt at huske, selv for ministre.
As to adopting a pre-emptive strike either against Iraq, or indeed in any other international crisis, he felt that, while a precedent may have been set through acting in Kosovo on humanitarian grounds, there was a need for an international framework as a basis for action. He urged respect for the UN resolutions.
Han mente, at man burde lade ansøgerlandene bevare deres frihed på områder, hvor det er muligt.
The question would be what to do in the event of non-compliance not only in Iraq but other trouble spots such as the Middle East.
Han mindede i denne forbindelse om den danske "sommerhus-protokol", som sikrer det gode forhold mellem danskere og tyskere, og at ansøgerlandene burde have samme mulighed.
For the GUE, Francis WURTZ (F) expressed the hope that war could now be avoided, especially if the response of the international community was to respect UN resolutions in favour of disarmament.
Han sluttede med at fastslå, at han ønsker et slankere, merefrit og decentralt Europa.
He called for a joint Commission and Council declaration before drawing attention to violence being committed in the Middle East and particularly against Palestinians.
Historisk beslutning Den franske GUE'er Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, F) pegede også på, at vi står over for en historisk beslutning og en fælles ud fordring, hvor vi må forhindre at demagoger og modstandere løber af med sejren.
For the EDD, Florence KUNTZ (F) was anxious to avoid war and the inevitable enormous loss of human life.
Den fungerende rådsformand, Europaminister Bertel HAARDER, så positivt på mulighederne for at undgå en krig i Irak under forudsætning af, at der kan etableres et effektivt og troværdigt inspektionssystem.
For the EPP/ED, José Ignacio SALAFRANCA SÁNCHEZ-NEYRA (E) did not question Saddam Hussein's threat to international peace and security but felt any response should be proportionate.
Han regnede dog ikke med at våbeninspektørerne vil vende tilbage, før en ny FN-resolution er blevet vedtaget af Sikkerhedsrådet og accepteret af Irak.
He sought clarification of relations between NATO and the projected Rapid Reaction Force and indeed the EU's own planned Rapid Reaction Force.
Sedladende tone? Den franske grønne Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Verts ALE, F) fastslog, at der suser historiske vinde her i salen i dag, men det er kolde vinde.
For the PES, Jannis SAKELLARIOU (D) acknowledged that there was consensus in the view that Iraq should comply with Security Council resolutions regarding the return of inspectors but that there were differences of opinion over the need for a new resolution.
Han fandt, at der var en nedladende tone over for ansøgerlandene, og at de 15 Il -lande forer en egoistisk politik, og at de er bange for historien. I stedet for at drøfte småting bor vi drøfte, hvilket Europa vi vil ha\c om 15-20 år.
He wanted to see a lifting of the embargo against Iraq thus alleviating the suffering inflicted on the Iraqi people and the suspension of US and British bombing of the country once the inspectors were in place.
Vi bør gennemføre en social og miljømæssig harmonisering i hele turopa, fastslog Cohn-Bendit.
The UN should devise a clear strategy, he felt.
Den irske UEN'er Gerard COLLINS (UEN, IRL) kritiserede de grønne for at arbejde for et irsk nej til Nice-traktaten den 19. oktober, idet det er nødvendigt at Nice ratificeres.
Gary TITLEY (PES, North West) stated that he had examined the dossier of evidence on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction that was presented to the British parliament, one of the most striking elements, he said, was the size of Saddam Hussein's palaces - equal to the size of cities.
Collins understregede, at der er sket enorme fremskrift i Tyrkiet i de seneste 18 måneder, og at der ikke i dag er tale om en afvisning af Tyrkiet
He, therefore, called for unfettered access for UN inspectors to all sites within Iraq.
Opbakning fra verdenssamfundet Kommissær Chris PATTEN glædede sig ligeledes over, at den amerikanske regering påny har bekræftet sit ønske om at følge FN, hvis det er muligt.
Although UN action was fundamental, he also remarked that diplomacy had to be followed up by military action if necessary.
Samtidig glædede han sig over de bestræbelser, som en række arabiske lande har udfoldet for at få Irak til at give FN's våbeninspektører fri adgang.
The threat of military action would simply not suffice.
Han lagde vægt på at gå via FN-systemet, ikke blot fordi det er de europæiske borgeres klare ønske, men også fordi det vil give legitimitet og opbakning fra verdenssamfundet. Han henviste til den britiske regerings vurdering af
He said that if the UN did not follow through with the necessary action, international politics would fundamentally change for the worse and multilateral action would be undermined.
Oktober I - 2002 risikoen for maseødelæggelsesvåben i Irak.
Yes to Association Agreement with Algeria
Efter hans mening er der fare for, at den deraf følgende ustabilitet kan brede sig til hele Mellemøsten.

Efter hendes mening vil oprettelsen af et internationalt kontor for menneskerettigheder i Irak kunne medvirke til at nå dette mål.
She said that all peaceful means needed to be exhausted before any "just war" could take place. The international community, she said, was far from achieving this.
Alle skal efterleve FN-resolutionerne Kommissæren understregede, at EU's mål principielt er at fjerne de omstridte masseødelæggelsesvåben i Irak.
Parliament gave its assent to the conclusion of the agreement between the European Community and its Member States and the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria.
En sådan ramme kan kun skabes gennem FN, mente han.
Eurig WYN (Greens/EFA, Wales) criticised the bombing from planes in the no-fly zones over the north and south of Iraq and said that this only made things worse.
I den forbindelse slog han til lyd for at tage alvorligt fat, ikke bare over for Irak, men over for alle de lande, der ikke efterlever FN-resolutionerne.
He called on the international community to do all in its powers to defend minorities within Iraq, in particular, the five million Kurds in the north which represent one quarter of Iraq's population.
Nej til ny USA-doktrin Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, F) understregede, at hans gruppe går ind for at støtte våbeninspektørernes tilbagevenden til Irak.
Replying to the debate, Mr Haarder once again emphasised the importance of the EU acting together in supporting the UN Security Council.
Han håbede, at fornuften vil sejre, så man på denne måde kan undgå en ny krig i Irak.
He felt that war was not unavoidable and in reply to questions regarding the lifting of sanctions, did say that there were new rules affecting the "Oil for Food Programme".
I den forbindelse glædede han sig også over præsident Bush's seneste udtalelser, der synes at tyde på en ny og mere nuanceret opfattelse af den internationale politiks spilleregler.
The situation was not helped by Saddam Hussein himself who seemed indifferent to the needs of his own people.
Francis Wurtz tog dog afstand fra den nye amerikanske strategiske doktrin, ifølge hvilken USA i kraft af sin militære overlegenhed skal være i stand til at udkæmpe en præventiv krig på egen hånd.
