Målet er nu inden for rækkevidde, det er nu vi skal samle Europa.
It was important to remember that enlargement was a two-way process, not a unilateral one.

The applicant countries needed the EU and the EU needed the applicant countries.
Visioner og lederskab Pat Cox fastslog, at 2003 bliver parla­menternes år ­ hvor tiltrædelsestraktaterne skal ratificeres, og hvor budskabet om udvidelsen skal sælges.
Jelko KAON (ELDR, Government, Slovenia) emphasised that enlargement was inevitable, as was the broadening of European democracy. He hoped that the number of accession countries could be increased, lauding the great efforts made by Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey.
De valgte parla­mentsmedlemmer i medlemslandene og an­søgerlandene og medlemmerne af Europa­Parlamentet skal nu gøre deres arbejde.
The countries in South Eastern Europe needed help to improve their market economy and democratic standards, so that they could join at a later stage as well.
Vi må overtage "udvidelses­dagsordenen" og kom­munikere den videre til vore borgere.
For Mari-Ann KELAM (EPPED, Opposition, Estonia) accession offered the possibility of having a double identity - an Estonian and a European identity.
Vi må have visioner og udvise lederskab.
Parliament had shown real solidarity then.
Fred, demokrati og velstand Romano Prodi pegede på, hvad ansøgerlandene kan forvente afEU-medlemskabet: EU-medlemskabet:
Europe that was kidnapped by Zeus and taken to the West and which could now be brought back to the East via Cyprus.
Først og fremmest fred, som er den egent lige årsag til fællesskabet,
This week in Prague a NATO summit was taking place, which should guarantee peace in Europe and other countries.
• demokrati, en værdi vi alt for ofte tager for givet, men vi bør huske på, at demokratiet aldrig kan tages for givet, men hele tiden må forsvares og fornys, velstand og

• • landenes repræsentanter.
Cyprus had fulfilled all its obligations and he hoped for an operational solution to the Cyprus problem.
Her blev det igen understreget, at denne dag var af stor historisk betydning.
The UN plan had been accepted by the Greek side as a basis for negotiations.
Alle bidragene havde naturligvis et personligt islæt idet hvert kandidatlands repræsentanter fremhævede netop deres lands position i udvidelsesdebatten.
The solution should comprise the "acquis communautaire", as well as the right for refugees to return home and a single sovereignty.
Fra Cyperns Andreas CHRISTOU (EUL/NGL, i opposition), der talte om Cyperns græsk/tyrkiske opdeling til Litauens Gintaras STEPNA-VlCnJS (ELDR, i opposition), der nævnte Kaliningrad-spørgsmålet og Litauens del tagelse i Schengen-samarbejdet.
Genowefa GRABOWSKA (PES, Government, Poland) was disappointed that Poland, although it was working in the Convention together with the current Member States and other applicant countries to forge a new EU, would not be present at the moment when a new constitution was adopted.
Roman JAKIC (ELDR, i Regering, Slovenien) tog en lidt anden tilgangsvinkel til debatten i og med, at han talte om EU-flaget som symbol på frihed, demokrati, retfærdighed og menneskerettigheder.
This, he said, ran counter to all logic. Poland had a population of 40 million people with tremendous potential and education.
Under ordførerunden blev det endnu engang slået fast, at denne dag var en historisk begivenhed.
She appealed to the Member States' governments and parliaments to do away with this ignorance.
Selvom der selvfølgelig var forskel på de synspunkter, der blev fremlagt fra de forskellige politiske grupper, lød der et overordnet velkommen til repræsentanterne fra kandidatlandene.
The year 2003 should be a year of European education, increasing knowledge of countries free of stereotypes.
Som Jozef OLESKY (PES, i Regering, Polen) sagde, så betød kandidatlandenes del tagelse i debatten, at nu var der ingen vej tilbage for europæisk integration.
Janusz LEWANDOWSKI (EPPED, Opposition, Poland) spoke on behalf of the Civic Platform, which wanted to reintroduce European values in Poland in order to resist totalitarian rule.
Et synspunkt der blev delt af Rumæniens repræsentant, Viorel HREBENCIUC (PES, i Regering), der også brugte denne historiske lejlighed til at udtrykke Rumæniens tilfredshed med konklusionerne fra topmødet i Bruxelles omkring Rumæniens indtrædelse i EU i 2007.
When Poland joined the EU, this would be the completion of a tremendous amount of work of transforming the economy and introducing democracy.
Han udviste dog stor forståelse for det faktum, at Rumænien stadig mangler at gøre frem skridt på visse områder.
The style and content of the final weeks of negotiation would have a major impact on the referendum to be held in 2003.
Den samme for ståelse gjorde sig gældende for Bulgariens repræsentant Ognyen GERDJDXOV (De uafhængige, i Regering) idet Bulgarien befinder sig i en lignende situation.
Equal opportunities and solidarity were needed now more than ever.
Hans-Gert PÖTTERING (EPP-ED, D) kaldte det for en stor dag for parlamentarisk demokrati og frihed og henviste til, at han havde set frem til denne dag, siden han for første gang ankom til Europa-Parlamentet i 1979.
Androula VASSILIOU (ELDR, Government, Cyprus) saw Cyprus as a staging post for the Middle East and Africa.
Også Enrique BARÓN CRESPO (PES, E) henviste til udvidelsens vigtige betydning, idet den vil gøre en ende på en historisk deling af det europæiske kontinent.
Cyprus had undergone much suffering, but had built an enviable level of democracy and prosperity.
Han understregede dog, at der stadig er for hindringer, der skal forceres i forbindelse med udvidelsen.
It was now looking actively for a viable solution to reunite peoples so that all Cypriots could become a living cell within the European organism.
De liberales formand, Graham WATSON (ELDR, UK), brugte lejligheden til at ud trykke utilfredshed med, at Tyrkiet ikke havde mulighed for aktivt at deltage i dagens debat og udtrykte ligeledes sin uenighed med konventsformand, Valery Giscard d'ESTAING, i forbindelse med dennes udtalelser omkring Tyrkiet.
Kazimierz UJAZDOWSKI (EPPED, Opposition, Poland) recalled that Solidarity was the name of the most significant movement for freedom in Europe.
EU er ikke en kristen klub, som han sagde.
Solidarity now meant that the applicant countries must be treated fairly and that the EU should not just be a club of economic interests.
Et andet emne, der blev fremhævet af flere af deltagerne fra kandidatlandene, var muligheden for at disse lande kunne deltage i den regeringskonference, der sandsynligvis vil finde sted i 2003.
Lojze PETERLE (EPPED, Opposition, Slovenia) deemed the support of public opinion indispensable.
Både Tjekkiets Lubomir ZAORALEK (PES, i Regering), Estlands Peeter KREIZBERG (ELDR, i Regering) og Slovakiets Jan FIGEL (EPP-DE, i Regering) understregede vigtigheden af dette.
Slovenia, he said, had only 2 million inhabitants but 4 million arms working for reconstruction and development. Accession without delay was necessary for the project of a unified Europe to succeed.
KREIZBERG understregede også, at selvom han var for tanken om Europæisk enhed, så var det vigtigt ikke at glemme forskellene mellem landene og erfaringerne fra fortiden.
He hoped for consensus in the Convention on the future of Europe and warned against any polarisation between the current and future Member States, between big and small countries and between Community and intergovernmental methods.
Kandidatlandenes bidrag til debatten Endelig blev det tid til den virkelig historiske del af debatten, bidragene fra kandidat-

Disagreement over small issues should be put aside in favour of the recognition of the wider benefits of EU membership.
For at kunne skabe større åbenhed i EU, var det vigtigt, at de nationale parlamenter fik tildelt en større rolle i forbindelse med fordelingen af kompetencer.

"Demokratiernes Europa " Jens­Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen talte på engelsk og mindede om, at i 2013 vil land­mændene fra de første ansøgerlande udgøre 34 % af EU's landmænd, men de vil kun modtage 11 % af landbrugsstøtten.
For the Liberals, Ole ANDREASEN (DK) emphasised that the EU was not just about agricultural subsidies or fish quotas and that one point of the meeting was to remind everyone of the greater importance of issues such as common values and respect for human rights and indeed the rights of minorities. He expressed his satisfaction at seeing some Turkish representatives here but underlined the need to improve information and communications.
Bonde pegede også på, at Vesttyskland hvert år betaler mere end 60 mia. euro til Østtyskland, medens EU blot tilbyder 1/5 af dette beløb til 5 gange så mange borgere.
This concluded the speeches by representatives of the candidate countries.
Bela KATONA (PES, i Regering, Ungarn) og Michael FRENDO (EPP­DE, i Regering, Malta) talte om deres respektive landes hi­storie og deres tilknytning til Europa.
For the GUE/NGL, Pernille FRAHM (DK) welcomed the delegates from the applicant countries. She warned of the danger of replacing the "iron curtain" with a "silver curtain" .
KATONA nævnte, at Ungarn har tilsluttet sig optagelses­kriterierne, men var også godt klar over, at der stadig er problemer, der skal løses i förbindelse med regionale konflikter og sigøjnere.
There was a need to reform the CAP and remove any discrimination against the new countries. But, she pointed out, this was part of an ongoing process and she looked forward to considering first the application of Turkey and then other countries.
Jens­Peter Bonde fastslog, at i et EU med 27 medlemslande kan 24 nationale parlamenter blive nedstemt af 3 embedsmænd fra 3 store lande, og at 85 % af lovene laves af embeds­mænd i hemmelige arbejdsgrupper. / stedet for Giscards forfatning opfordrer vi til "de­mokratiernes Europa", sluttede Bonde.
Nelly MAES (B) for the Greens/EFA group, said the EU was a community rather than a simple single market. It was important for the EU, she said, to defend the diversity of cultures as well as respecting other peoples in the world.

Det har taget for lang tid at komme til i dag.
He was happy to consider that the Soviet Union was now a friend and partner and no longer an enemy.
Vi i den vestlige del af kontinentet var ved at lulle os ind i, at europæiske debatter drejede sig om økonomi og finanser.
The new Union, with 204 million new EU citizens, still remained in some ways an unknown entity and much depended on the results of the European Convention.
Debatten om udvidelse har løftet os og vist, at EU ikke kun handler om landbrugsstøtte og fiske­kvoter.
Mr Suominen, from a young Member State himself, warned that the EU would not bring "paradise" to a country but rather it depended on the hard work and commitment of its people.
EU's udvidelse med 10 nye medlemslande: Tiltrædelsesdato den 1. maj 2004!
All the Member States, present and future, she said, would need time to adapt, and time would be needed for the wounds inflicted by years of division to heal fully.
Han understregede, at vi bør styrke informa­tionen om EU og styrke kommunikationen med borgerne i de nye medlemslande.
The EU, he emphasised, stood for democracy, peace and shared national sovereignty and it was important to realise how many developments had been made in such a short space of time.
Det er en meget vigtig opgave forud for folkeafstem­ningerne. Jeg kommer jo selv fra et land med erfaringer i myter og halve sandheder om EU, sluttede Ole Andreasen.
Nevertheless, he pointed out that there was

benefits of membership all round. The lesson from the meeting, he felt, was that the new Europe could work, while at the same time it was necessary to take full account of the history of oppression suffered by the new Member States.
Det lover ikke godt for ligestillingen.
This should not be seen in a negative light and indeed he felt existing Member States could learn the values of respect for human rights from the new countries.
Pernille Frahm fastslog, at jerntæppet er væk i dag, men at sølvtæppet fortsætter i hvert fald 10 år endnu.
The new Europe would be based on shared fundamental values and he was confident of success in Copenhagen.
Mange af talerne fra de nye medlems­lande gav også udtryk for, at denne forskels­behandling kan betyde et nej ved de kom­mendefolkeafstemninger om medlemskab.

He then thanked all those involved, especially the interpreters in interpreting from 23 languages i.e. a combination of 506 possibilities. This showed that the new Europe would ensure respect for cultural diversity and guarantee equality for all.
EU's Ministerråd fastsatte tidligere på ugen til­trædelsesdatoen tilden 1. maj2004.
Enlargement 1 May 2004 -Accession of 10 New Countries

Handel med kvinder EP beklager, at handel med kvinder og børn stadig er et stort problem i mange ansøgerlande.
MEPs took note of the agreement between the EU and Russia and the question of Kaliningrad but consider that several points still need to be resolved and the setting up of this agreement will pose serious problems.
Man henstiller derfor indtrængende til de nuværende EU-lande hurtigt at gennem føre den rammeafgørelse om bekæmpelse af menneskehandel, som EU's Ministerråd ved tog i august 2002, og man opfordrer ansøgerlandene til at gennemføre disse fuldt ud.
Parliament supported the criticisms of the Foreign Affairs Committee regarding the insufficient efforts taken to fight against corruption in Slovakia and Slovenia. Parliament also approved the 1 January 2007 as the target date for accession for Romania and Bulgaria.
Nødvendige smidighed? EP håber nu, at både medlemslandene og kan didatlandene vil udvise den nødvendige smidighed i de sidste afgørende forhandlinger inden og i København 12.-13. december.
In the debate, Elmar BROK (EPPED, D), the reporter for the Foreign Affairs Committee, called on the negotiators not to get lost in minor details and always bare in mind the historic importance of uniting Europe.
Man fremhæver princippet om solidaritet mellem medlemslandene, hvilket også betyder, at de finansielle virkninger af ud videlsen skal fordeles ligeligt mellem de 15 nuværende medlemslande.
Jacques POOS (PES, L) for Cyprus regretted that Turkish Cypriots have not yet, unlike the Greek Cypriots, accepted Kofi ANNAN's new proposals and deplored the recent threats coming from Ankara. Mr Jürgen
Under debatten om Elmar Brok-betænkningen om EU's udvidelse med 10 nye medlemslande - som fandt sted tirsdag den 19. november 2002 om eftermiddagen - oplyste den danske Europaminister Bertel Haarder, at Ministerrådet i går i Bruxelles var nået til enighed om, at tiltrædelsesdatoen for de nye lande bør være den 1. maj 2004.
He also raised the question of Kaliningrad, stating that Lithuania's sovereignty should not be undermined in any sense and called on the Commission to come forward with a specific proposal on the subject which would allow Lithuania to fully participate in the Schengen system on the free movement of people. For Bulgaria and Romania, he warned against any new artificial obstacles which would prevent

these countries from acceding in 2007.
Et evt. tyrkisk EU-medlemskab spillede en vigtig rolle under EP-debatten om EU's udvidelse.
With regard to Cyprus, Mr Brok welcomed the recent proposals from Kofi ANNAN, Secretary General of the UN, and encouraged both sides to work together.
Nogle mente, at EU ikke kan sige nej til Tyrkiet, hvis landet lever op til betingelserne - dvs. Københavns-kriterierne, medens andre var af den opfattelse, at Tyrkiet under ingen omstændigheder hører hjemme iEUpk grund af kulturelle forskelle, religion og manglende retsstatsforhold, ligesom Tyrkiet heller ikke er et europæisk land.
Lastly, concerning Turkey, he insisted that both the economic and political aspects of the Copenhagen criteria would have to be respected, including those in the Charter of Fundamental Rights and he said that he was unsure whether Turkey could satisfy all of these.
Atter andre - Elmar Brok og Günter Verheugen -mente, at hvis Tyrkiet opfylder betingelserne, så må vi i det mindste overveje tyrkisk EU-medlemskab.
However, he pointed out that the situation with regard to Turkey was completely different and not on the agenda but rather for EU Ministers at the Copenhagen Summit.
EP minder de 10 førende ansøgerlande om, at reformerne skal fortsættes på alle områder i lang tid efter tiltrædelsen, for at de kan opfylde de forpligtelser, de har indgået under udvidelsesforhandlingerne.
For Council, Bertel HAARDER confirmed that Copenhagen would finalise the decision taking process with regard to the 10 candidate countries and also look at the question of Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey.
EP anmoder der for indtrængende alle aktører om ikke at slække på deres reformbestræbelser, når for handlingerne en gang er afsluttet.
At the same time, it was important to carry on with the reform of the institutions and ensure respect for minorities, she said. A clear positive signal should also be sent to Turkey.
Administrative og retlige problemer Europa-Parlamentet minder også ansøgerlandene om, at den administrative og retlige gennemførelse af gældende EU-ret stadig er det største problem.
For the GUE/NGL, Andre BRIE (EUL/NGL, D) supported the resolution before the House, although he did not feel enough attention had been paid to employment and social affairs.
Man støtter derfor Kom missionen i gennemførelsen af dens administrative handlingsplan, der har til formål at udvide ansøgerlandenes administrative og ret lige kapacitet.
Jan Joost LAGENDIJK (NL), for the Greens/EFA group, said that the EU and particularly Mr Brok "should stop playing with words" when it came to Turkey.
I forlængelse heraf opfordrer man Kommissionen til at skabe en langt stærkere lokal og regional komponent for at
He said the EU ought to set a date for the start for negotiations and encourage the new Turkish government with its reform process.
Kløgt og visdom? Under forelæggelsen af sin betænkning sagde Elmar BROK at vi i formiddags har set den historiske dimension, som vi befinder os midt i.
It was then the turn of Commissioner Gunter VERHEUGEN to expand on his earlier speech by reminding MEPs that each obstacle placed in the path of the enlargement process such as the Irish Referendum, Kaliningrad or financial contributions had been overcome.
Han mente, at ansøgerlandene har ud vist en modig holdning gennem de store ændringer i deres sociale, politiske og økonomiske systemer.
He did, however, warn that, for technical reasons, there could be cashflow problems in the national budgets of the applicant states for the 2004-2006 period.
Men der er stadig uløste problemer, og han nævnte her mindretalsrettigheder og korruption og svindel.
On Turkey, he emphasised that the country would be treated equally but that no date could be fixed until it was recognised that the political criteria for accession had been respected.
Brok håbede, at alle nu vil udvise kløgt og visdom i de sidste afgørende forhandlinger, og at det hele ikke stranderpå grund af smålighed.
In addition, he emphasised that a decision on Cyprus would have to be taken at Copenhagen in December, irrespective of the political situation.

reconciliation between the Greek and Turkish sides.
Elmar Brok understregede, at Københavns­kriterierne ikke må udvandes, og at de bør op­fyldes fuldt ud.
Liam HYLAND (UEN, Leinster) was concerned that the enlargement countries should be fully integrated into the CAP but the Berlin Agreement, setting out the EU finances up until 2006, should be respected.
Hvis Tyrkiet opfylder betin­gelserne, så er vi nødt til at overveje tyrkisk medlemskab.
Bastiaan BELDER (EDD, NL), for the EDD group, disagreed with Mr Lagendijk on the question of Turkey's accession.
Vi bør i alle fald give Tyrkiet chancen, sluttede Elmar Brok.
He also criticised the Danish Authorities for arresting Akhmed Zakayev, an envoy of Chechen President Asian Maskhadov.
Den tyske EU­udvidelseskommissær Günter VERHEUGEN mente, at EP har levet op til sin rolle, og vist at det repræsenterer bor­gerne.
Taking up the situation of small countries such as Lithuania, Jill EVANS (Greens/EFA, Wales) emphasised the need for the new Europe to respect minorities and ensure that all nations, including Wales, would be treated equally.
EP har ikke opfattet udvidelsen tek­nisk, men som et politisk arbejde, hvilket viser, at udvidelsen også har en "sjæl" fast­slog Verheugen.
Baroness Sarah LUDFORD (ELDR, London) called on the Turkish Cypriot Authorities to respond positively to the Annan plans for a united Cyprus.
