Στο σημείο αυτό έκανε ιδιαίτερη αναφορά στο εκκρεμές ζήτημα του καθεστώτος των ευρωβουλευτών, το οποίο σε περίπτωση εκλογής του θα φροντίσει να ρυθμιστεί.
Europe, he said, was based on work, solidarity and social justice. It was a welcoming Europe, open to the world, feeling the suffering of others and understanding the aspirations of different countries round the world.

He had been a trade union activist and shop steward, before being elected to the national Parliament of Spain and serving for 12 years as a minister.

He had been a member of the Convention and had represented Spain in various formations of the Council of Ministers, on occasions losing battles in the Council, only to see his position reinstated by Parliament.

Address by newly elected President
Ψηφίσαντες: 693 Λευκά/ άκυρα ψηφοδέλτια: 26 Έγκυρα ψηφοδέλτια: 667
The newly elected President of Parliament, Josep BORRELL FONTELLES said his first words would be of gratitude and of commitment for the future.
Ο κ. Bronislaw GEREMEK (ALDE) υπογράμμισε το γεγονός ότι προέρχεται από την Πολωνία, "τη χώρα όπου τον προηγούμενο αιώνα το κίνημα κατά του ολοκληρωτισμού είχε τις ρίζες του".
For now, he mentioned the installation of the new Commission, the plans for the new Financial Perspective, the Stability and Growth Pact, the Euro-Mediterranean relationship and the Middle East as key issues for the future as well as the ratification of the Constitution, which the Parliament would have to follow closely.
Αφού τόνισε ότι έχει φίλους σε όλες τις πολιτικές οικογένειες, δήλωσε υπέρμαχος της Ευρώπης της αλληλεγγύης.
Mr Borrell was then congratulated by Commission President Romano PRODI, who called in particular for the Parliament to fulfil its paradigm role in bringing the EU institutions closer to the lives of the citizens of Europe.
Κατά τη γνώμη του Πολωνού πολιτικού, το Ευρωπαϊκό Κοινοβούλιο θα πρέπει να παραμείνει χώρος στρατηγικής συζήτησης για το μέλλον της Ευρώπης και να παίξει ένα στρατηγικό ρόλο, ούτως ώστε να αποτελέσει τόπο έκφρασης όλων των πολιτικών οικογενειών που έλαβαν μέρος στις πρόσφατες ευρωεκλογές.
Leaders of the political groups, including Hans-Gert POETTERING (EPPED, DE), Martin SCHULZ (PES, DE), Graham WATSON (ELDR, South West), Francis WURTZ (EUL/NGL, FR), Monica FRASSONI (Greens/EFA, IT), Cristiana MUSCARDINI (UEN, IT) and Bruno GOLLNISCH (IND, FR), also congratulated the new President on his election. The deal between the EPP-ED group and the PES group on the EP Presidency was, however, criticised by the speakers from the other groups.
Ο κ. GEREMEK ανέφερε ακόμη ότι θα ήθελε το Κοινοβούλιο να θεωρηθεί ως υπόδειγμα για όλους του υπόλοιπους ευρωπαϊκούς θεσμούς και καταλήγοντας κάλεσε τους συναδέλφους του να τον ψηφίσουν.
He paid tribute to the work of his predecessor, Pat COX, who had, he said, had a brilliant presidency, active in representing the whole of Parliament and ensuring it had a salient profile as an institution. The setting up of the Convention reflected in part Pat Cox's efforts to oppose a drift to intergovernmentalism in the EU.

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.
Μολονότι αναγνώρισε ότι ο κ. BARROSO είναι μια σημαντική προσωπικότητα, ο Martin SCHULZ (ΡΕΣ, DE) ανακοίνωσε στο Σώμα ότι η πολιτική του ομάδα θα καταψηφίσει την υποψηφιότητα του Πορτογάλου πολιτικού, καθώς θεωρεί ότι δεν πληροί τις απαραίτητες προϋποθέσεις.
Jonathan EVANS (Wales), speaking for the British Conservatives and their colleagues in the European Democrats wing of the EPP-ED, told Mr Barroso he had a number of qualities which made him suitable for the job of Commission President, notably in his record of economic reform in Portugal.
Πρόσθεσε, ωστόσο, με λύπη ότι ορισμένοι ευρωβουλευτές του ΕΣΚ θα υποστηρίξουν την πρόταση του Συμβουλίου.
He called for bold reforms in the Commission to restore public confidence, including the appointment of a Commissioner for Budgetary Control, greater protection for whistleblowers and the full independence of OLAF.
Οι ευρωβουλευτές ενέκριναν το διορισμό του κ. BARROSO

This meant an end to debates on process, institutional intricacies and flowery discussions of the meaning of Europe.
Οπως εξήγησε, ο Πορτογάλος πολιτικός έδωσε πειστικές απαντήσεις στα ερωτήματα που του έθεσαν οι συνάδελφοι του.
They did not want to be part of a federal state called Europe, he said. 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. "
Στις 22 Ιουλίου το Ευρωπαϊκό Κοινοβούλιο ενέκρινε με 413 ψήφους υπέρ και 251 κατά την πρόταση του Συμβουλίου να διοριστεί ο κ. José Manuel DURÃO BARROSO στη θέση του Προέδρου της Ευρωπαϊκής Επιτροπής.
In his final response to the debate, Mr Barroso stated that he was in favour of a strong Europe capable of tackling major issues in the world including climate change, free and fair trade, the support for multilateral institutions and the fight against disease. In order to achieve all this, he said, the EU would need sufficient financing.
Μετά την ανακοίνωση του αποτελέσματος ο νέος Πρόεδρος της Επιτροπής τόνισε ότι είναι μεγάλη τιμή για αυτόν το γεγονός ότι το Ευρωπαϊκό Κοινοβούλιο επικύρωσε το διορισμό του.
Baroness Sarah LUDFORD (ELDR, UK) told Mr Barroso she had initially been prejudiced against him by what she called the squalid intergovernmental bargaining that had led to his nomination, and by the fact that he had supported the Iraq war, which she believed was misguided and illegal.
Εξέφρασε δε την ελπίδα να αναπτυχθεί τα επόμενα χρόνια μια "θετική συνεργασία" μεταξύ Ευρωπαϊκής Επιτροπής και Κοινοβουλίου.
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. She said Mr Barroso seemed to be trying to be all things to all people, rather like Tony Blair.

Speaking immediately after his approval by the European Parliament, Mr José Barroso stated that he felt proud to be Portuguese and his nation would be proud that a Portuguese citizen had become Commission President.
Στη συνέχεια εξέφρασε την εκτίμηση ότι ένα από τα βασικά του καθήκοντα στο μέλλον θα είναι η επίτευξη ισορροπιών και συναινέσεων.
He said he would build bridges between those who wanted to modernise and those who did not and between the pro and anti-EU as well as between himself and the people that did not vote for him. He underlined his belief in Europe and his strong European convictions.
