Istega leta je Berlin gostil vrh Evropske unije, na katerem so voditelji držav članic oblikovali finančni okvir za širitev Evropske unije, ki se je zgodila leta 2004.
That year also saw the capital host an EU summit which established the financial framework for the enlargement of the European Union - ultimately taking place in 2004.
Izjava poziva, da se Evropski uniji še pred naslednjimi volitvami v Evropski parlament leta 2009 zagotovi nov skupni temelj.
The declaration also called for a "renewed common basis" for the EU before elections to the European Parliament in 2009.
To pa pomeni, da se morajo razprave o ustavni pogodbi do takrat zaključiti.
This was taken to mean that the debates over the Constitutional Treaty should be resolved before then.

The Berlin Declaration
Nemška kanclerka Angela Merkel je Berlinsko deklaracijo označila kot temelj za evropske volitve leta 2009.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel was warmly welcomed by MEPs following the Summit and Declaration at the weekend under her Presidency of the Union.
Glede zunanjepolitičnih vprašanj je omenila odnose med EU in Rusijo ter vrh EU-ZD A.
She mentioned EU-Russia and EU-USA summits as important events to come.
Predsednik skupine evropske ljudske stranke Joseph Daul je kanclerko Merklovo pohvalil glede dosežkov vrha v Berlinu: "Dokazali ste, da v Evropi ne gre le za govore in zakone, temveč tudi čustva, veselje in družabnost."
For the European People's Party Joseph Daul praised Chancellor Merkel's stewardship of the Summit: "you have proven that Europe is not only about speeches and laws, it is also about emotions, joy and conviviality".

Poslanci zahtevajo pravičnejše in preglednejše financiranje proračuna EU
EU should adopt own resources to simplify budget says report
Poročevalec Alain Lamassoure
MEP Alain Lamassoure wants the budget simplified
Poslanci se zavzemajo za dvostopenjsko reformo, ki naj bi vodila do enakosti med državami članicami.
To a casual observer, wrangling over the EU budget seems to be a regular fixture on the EU summit circle.
Tako se je do leta 1970 proračun Skupnosti financiral izključno iz lastnih sredstev - to so bile carine in kmetijske dajatve iz uvoza.
In late 2005 the heads of all 27 EU countries agreed on a budget that would take the Union to 2013.
Lastna sredstva pa kmalu niso več zadoščala, zato jih je leta 1970 dopolnil vir na osnovi davka na dodano vrednost in leta 1988 vir na osnovi bruto domačega proizvoda (BDP).
An important caveat however, was the decision to have a review in 2008/09 that would look at the Common Agriculture Policy and the British rebate.
Iz slednjega so se sprva črpala sredstva le takrat, ko zneski iz preostalih treh virov za kritje finančnih obveznosti niso zadoščali, sčasoma pa je ta vir postal ključni vir za proračun Evropske unije in je v finančnem letu 2005 znašal 70 odstotkov proračuna .
In a report passed on 29 March MEPs called for a simplified budget and an end to "special arrangements" for some states.
Nacionalni egoizem
Budget: "incomprehensible for citizens"
Financiranje proračuna EU je bilo z leti vse bolj zapleteno ter je vodilo do sporov in barantanja med državami članicami, ki so se počutile opeharjenje.
The report - drafted by French European People's Party MEP Alain Lamassoure - says the EU budget is now so complicated that it is on "the point of becoming anti-democratic and totally incomprehensible for citizens".
Pogosto so se pogajale za rabate in posebne pogoje.
It also points to the arguments over the budget which creates bad feeling between states.
Pri tem velja omeniti britanski primer, ko je Margaret Thatcher na vrhu v francoskem mestu Fontainebleau zahtevala rabat za Veliko Britanijo, ki ga je utemeljevala z dejstvom, da je Velika Britanija ena izmed najrevnejših držav Evropske skupnosti ter hkrati pomembna neto plačnica.
The most famous episode was at the 1984 summit in Fontainebleau when Mrs Thatcher won the British rebate with the cry of "I want my money back".
Velika Britanija je tako letno prihranila med štiri in pet milijardami evrov.
The controversy over the budget issue was marked in the voting in Parliament - 458 backed the report, 117 MEPs were against and 61 abstained.
"Želimo enostavnejši sistem.
Lamassoure: expand "own resources", reduce national contributions
Želimo več pravičnosti, več enakosti med državami članicami in večjo preglednost proračunskih prihodkov.
The growing complexity of the budget reflects the growing numbers of EU members and the different standards of living across the Union.
Prva stopnja: Vse države članice naj bi prispevale enak odstotek bruto nacionalnega dohodka (približno en odstotek) v proračunu EU.
Each country would be asked to contribute approximately 1% of this.
Posebne ureditve in rabate je treba postopoma ukiniti, najpozneje do leta 2013.
Under this step Mr Lamassoure envisages the UK rebate being abolished by 2013.
Tako bi se vzpostavila neposredna povezava med evropskimi davkoplačevalci in Evropsko unijo.
Originally from the foundation of the EU these were customs and agricultural levies made on the trade on agricultural products.
Nov sistem pa nikakor ne bi pomenil, da bi Evropska unija lahko uvedla in pobirala svoje davke.
Mr Lamassoure would like to see a return to funding through "own resources" as this "system would correspond to the letter and spirit of the founding treaties".
Davčna suverenost bi še naprej ostala v pristojnosti držav članic.
On whether the EU should take the next step and develop its own "EU Tax" there was mixed response among MEPs.

However, Polish MEP Zbigniew Kuźmiuk (Union for Europe of the Nations), while agreeing that the current system is unfair, warned against the introduction of an EU tax and said that it would increase the tax burden of the citizens.

Javier Solana: told MEPs of a "major desire" for a strong EU foreign policy
Drugi dan plenarnega zasedanja je zaznamoval govor visokega predstavnika za skupno zunanjo in varnostno politiko Javiera Solane, ki je evropskim poslancem predstavil obete za skupno zunanjo politiko v letu 2007.
Day 2 of Plenary opened with an overview of the Union's foreign policy in 2007 by Javier Solana - the EU's High Representative for foreign policy.
Solana o zunanji politiki Evropske unije
In a later vote on Thursday MEPs adopted reports on the EU's "own-resources".
Javier Solana, visoki predstavnik za skupno zunanjo in varnostno politiko ter generalni sekretar Sveta EU, je v svojem govoru evropskim poslancem dejal, da si tudi partnerji po svetu želijo aktivnejšo evropsko zunanjo politiko.
Solana before MEPs to report on EU foreign policy
Spomnil je na to, da ima Evropska unija že deset mednarodnih vojaških misij in da načrtuje še nadaljnje misije v Afganistanu in na Kosovem.
Mr Solana told MEPs that there was "major desire" around the world for a strong EU foreign policy and reminded them that the EU has 10 international military missions and plans more in Afghanistan and Kosovo.
Nov sistem financiranja iz lastnih sredstev EU
Own resources: a fairer distribution of EU money?
Evropski poslanci so na plenarnem zasedanju v četrtek odobrili poročilo, ki predlaga spremembe sedanjega načina financiranja proračuna EU.
MEPs adopted a report proposing a reform of the "own-resources" system which would above all emphasise "equality between EU states".
Poročilo, ki ga je pripravil krščanski demokrat Alain Lamassoure, predlaga dve stopnji reforme.
The own-initiative report by European People's Party MEP by Alain Lamassoure advocates two stages of reform:
20070323STO04519 Obeti za skupno zunanjo politiko Evropske unije v letu 2007 Nov sistem financiranja iz lastnih sredstev EU že leta 2014?
In the second stage, the EU would benefit directly from a certain share of tax, as happens with regional or local authorities in most countries.
Sreda na plenarnem zasedanju: Berlinska izjava, Zimbabve, Kosovo
The new system will, under no circumstances, grant the European Union the right to levy taxes.

Evropski parlament in človekove pravice
EP and Human Rights: Beyond activism
Evropski parlament se zavzema za človekove pravice po vsem svetu
EP does have a positive impact on human rights
Ali lahko s poročili, resolucijami, razpravami, nagrado Saharov za svobodo misli, zaključki in sklepi o človekovih pravicah ter dialogi kaj spremenimo?
Reports, resolutions, debates, questions, the Sakharov prize for Freedom of Thought, human rights clauses, guidelines, dialogues - there are a multitude of policy instruments to promote human rights.
Ja, se je glasil odgovor strokovnjakov, ki so se pretekli teden sestali na seminarju v Evropskem parlamentu.
Yes, a seminar last week concluded, but it could do more.
Vendar pa lahko Parlament postane še učinkovitejši.
The winners said the prize had made them safer and better able to pursue their work, but Parliament could still follow up more effectively on its Human Rights initiatives.
»Dame v belem« so leta 2005 prejele nagrado Saharov, ki jo podeljuje Evropski parlament.
EP must coordinate, prepare and focus better - Pöttering
Gre za skupino kubanskih žena, ki so, oblečene v belo, s protestnimi pohodi zahtevale izpustitev svojih mož, bratov in sinov, ki so jih kot režimske kritike v »kubanski pomladi« leta 2003 obsodili na 6 do 28 let zapora.
Opening the seminar, EP President Hans-Gert Pöttering, said: "We shouldn't necessarily do more, but better with the tools we have", He underlined the need to co-ordinate, prepare and focus better.
Tema obravnave na seminarju je bila tudi študija o vplivu dejavnosti Evropskega parlamenta na področju človekovih pravic, ki jo je pripravil Evropski meduniverzitetni center za človekove pravice in demokratizacijo.
"If you agree to sign an association agreement, why don't you make its human rights clauses respected?"
Nagrada Saharov je velika moralna podpora
Positive impact, but lacks visibility
Parlamentarni pododbor za človekove pravice je na seminarju pretekli teden gostil tudi dva dobitnika nagrade Saharov – Roberta Ménarda, generalnega sekretarja združenja Novinarji brez meja (2005) in Alesa Antsipenka iz beloruskega združenja novinarjev (2004).
The seminar considered a study on the impact of EP activities in the field of human rights by the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC), which found some of the positive effects were raising visibility, protecting individuals, putting pressure on third countries and being a source of reference for other institutions and organisations.
Strokovnjakom iz evropskih institucij, nemškega zveznega parlamenta in predstavnikom nevladnih organizacij sta pojasnila, da jima nagrada Saharov daje veliko moralno podporo, prav tako pa je prispevala k njuni varnosti in jima olajšala delo.
For example, after the draft 2004 Annual Report on human rights identified the stoning of women, execution of minors and amputation as punishment of particular concern, the rapporteur got written assurances from Iran that a moratorium would be placed on the practices.
Udeleženci so razglabljali o učinkovitosti dejavnosti Evropskega parlamenta na področju človekovih pravic, medinstitucionalnih odnosov in usklajevanja ter delovnih metod Evropskega parlamenta za bolj strateški pristop k spodbujanju in zaščiti človekovih pravic.
When the Damas de Blanco won the Sakharov prize, they said: “Although the authorities say they do not recognize the prize, in fact they are more cautious in their repression against us.”
V svojem otvoritvenem govoru je predsednik Pöttering poudaril pomen Evropskega parlamenta v boju za človekove pravice ter dodal, da potrebujemo več priprav in usklajevanja, predvsem pa bi morali bolje uporabiti instrumente, ki jih imamo na razpolago na področju spodbujanja človekovih pravic.
However, the study says better visibility and media coverage is needed as well as better coordination within EP and with other institutions.
Prejemnik nagrade Saharov Laureate Robert Ménard je pohvalil delo Parlamenta, vendar je hkrati podvomil o doslednosti ukrepov.
"The effect is lost when there's no follow-up and the EP falls back to its everyday business," EIUC President Professor Horst Fischer said, suggesting better interweaving and coordination of human rights activities inside the Parliament and with other institutions and EU countries.
Mnogi udeleženci seminarja so kritično ocenili pomanjkljivo poročanje medijev o dejavnostih Parlamenta.
"Why not use common positions, declarations, joint missions between Sakharov Prize winners and MEPs?"
Mediji bi morali bolje spremljati parlamentarne resolucije in potovanja parlamentarnih delegacij, ki so namenjena večanju človekovih pravic.
The chair of the committee, Hélène Flautre, said the responsibility belongs jointly to the EP and the media.
Parlament v vlogi zagovornika človekovih pravic
Coveney Report
Irski evropski poslanec Gael's Simon Coveney je pripomnil, da je mnoge ideje in poglede, ki so jih izrazili udeleženci seminarja, tudi sam objavil v svojem poročilu za leto 2006 o človekovih pravicah na svetu.
Fine Gael's Simon Coveney, who drafted the 2006 EP annual report on Human Rights in the World, noted that a lot of the recommendations are already included in the report.
To poročilo je še isti dan, 27. marca, sprejel odbor za zunanje zadeve, poslanci pa bodo o njem razpravljali na aprilskem plenarnem zasedanju.
The report was adopted 27 March by the Foreign Affairs Committee and will be put to the plenary in April.
Coveney je prav tako dejal in mnogi sogovorniki so mu pritrdili, da Parlament lahko zelo odločno nastopa kot zagovornik človekovih pravic, saj je pri tem diplomatsko manj omejen kot Komisija in Svet ministrov.
Coveney also said the Parliament should continue to report independently in part because it can play a stronger advocacy role and push EU policy further than the Commission and Council of Ministers.
Poročilo o človekovih pravicah pa je podprla tudi komisarka za zunanje zadeve Benita Ferrero Waldner.
External Affairs Commissioner Benita Ferrero Waldner has supported a concerted EU human rights report.

Velikost ni več pomembna
Size no longer matters in the EU
Embalaža vseh velikosti
All change on packet sizes?
Prosti pretok blaga je temelj notranjega trga Evropske unije in ključ do njenega gospodarskega uspeha.
The free movement of goods is an EU principle and key to its economic success.
Pol milijarde Evropejcev lahko izbira med proizvodi 27 držav članic.
Half a billion citizens can choose from a vast range of shopping products from 27 states.
Večja izbira je enkratna pridobitev, če seveda ne vodi do zmede v veleblagovnicah.
Standardisation, including packaging, has been vital in making this happen.
Zato pa je predvsem potrebna uskladitev velikosti embalaže izdelkov.
More choice is great, but might the more vulnerable be "lost in the supermarket"?
S tem vprašanjem se trenutno sooča tudi Parlament.
This is the question now confronting the Parliament.
Evropska Komisija želi liberalizirati velikost embalaže za prehrambene in druge izdelke.
The European Commission wants to liberalise food packaging sizes.
Trenutno veljavna evropska zakonodaja na tem področju je stara že več kot 30 let.
Many food packaging laws are over 30 years old and accumulated amendments make them confusing and hard to apply.
V šestdesetih letih so različna nacionalna pravila o velikosti embalaže in steklenic predstavljale veliko oviro pri prostem pretoku blaga med državami članicami.
In the 1960s different national rules on the volume of packets and bottles were a major barrier to the free movement of goods between the Member States.
Z direktivo EU o uskladitvi teh pravil so bile te ovire odpravljene.
Harmonisation helped sweep those barriers aside.
Vendar pa je leta 2000 Evropsko sodišče razsodilo, da nobena država članica izdelkov iz drugih držav članic EU ne sme zavrniti na podlagi drugačne velikosti embalaže, kot jo sama uporablja.
But, in 2000 the European Court of Justice ruled that EU countries could not refuse products from other member states because they used different pack sizes, making the law unnecessary.
Kaj želijo potrošniki?
What does the customer want?
Anketa Eurobarometra (2001) o izkušnjah potrošnikov z embalažo prehrambenih izdelkov je pokazala, da bi potrošniki sicer želeli standardno velikost embalaže, vendar pa se hkrati ne želijo odreči večji izbiri izdelkov.
A Eurobarometer survey in October 2001 asked consumers about their experience with packaged and bottled products sold in shops and supermarkets.
Parlament podpira predlog Komisije
Parliament supports the Commission's proposal in general, but wants better protection for consumers and small and medium enterprises.
Evropski poslanci pozdravljajo predlog Komisije, vendar zahtevajo boljšo zaščito potrošnikov ter malih in srednjih podjetij.
It is concerned that disabled and elderly customers could be confused about whether they are getting value for money.
Poslanci menijo, da morajo obvezne velikosti embalaž ostati – poleg izdelkov, ki jih predlaga Komisija – tudi za mleko, maslo, mleto praženo kavo ali kavo v zrnju, testenine, riž in rjavi sladkor .
Many of the people in these demographic groups tend to use local shops, which often don't indicate unit prices, something supermarkets are obliged to do.
To so namreč osnovni prehrambeni izdelki in po mnenju Parlamenta morajo obvezne velikosti zanje ostati, da ne bi zavajali potrošnikov.
In addition, Parliament is concerned that there may be costs for smaller firms, who may find that existing machinery catering to specific packet sizes becomes obsolete.
Ti bi lahko, misleč da kupujejo cenejši izdelek, dejansko kupili izdelek v manjši embalaži.
It suggests that the list of regulated products should be extended to include ground coffee, butter, salt, rice, pasta and milk.
Poslanci temu nasprotujejo in se zavzemajo za osemletno obdobje, saj je težko predvideti, kakšne bodo tržne razmere čez 20 let.
It looks likely that the EP will approve the legislation in May, provided that there is agreement that it can be revised if it is found that the law has had a negative impact on customers or producers.

"Mi, državljanke in državljani Evropske unije ..."
"We, the citizens of the European Union …"
"Mi, državljanke in državljani, združeni za boljši jutri."
Celebrations in Berlin to mark 50 years since the Treaty of Rome
Izjava poudarja, da je nenaravna razdeljenost Evrope zdaj dokončno postala preteklost in da Evropska unija temelji na enakopravnosti in solidarnem sožitju držav članic.
The Declaration reaffirms that "the European Union is founded on equal rights and mutually supportive cooperation" and that "the unnatural division of Europe is now consigned to the past".
Glede ustave izjava poziva, da se Evropski uniji še pred naslednjimi volitvami v Evropski parlament leta 2009 zagotovi nov skupni temelj.
On the Constitution it calls for it to be put on a "renewed common basis before EP elections in 2009".
Izzivi za prihodnost
Berlin was an apt place for the Declaration.
"Mi, državljani EU, smo se združili za boljši jutri," se glasi uvod v tri tematska poglavja izjave.
In addition to being the capital of Germany, the current holder of the EU Presidency, the dismantled Berlin Wall symbolises the divisions that Europe has overcome.
V nadaljevanju izjava poudarja pomen solidarnosti in demokracije, vlogo Evropske unije na svetovnem prizorišču ter njeno odprtost in njen nadaljnji notranji razvoj.
The Declaration was signed by the "3 Presidents": - for the Parliament Hans-Gert Pöttering, for the Commission José Manuel Barroso and the President of the Council, German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Izjava navaja izzive, s katerimi se sooča EU in ki presegajo nacionalne meje.
The Declaration says that Europe is "facing major challenges which do not stop at national borders".
To so terorizem, organiziran kriminal, nezakonito priseljevanje, podnebne spremembe, energetska politika in boj proti revščini.
It mentions terrorism, organised crime, illegal immigration, climate change, energy policy and the fight against poverty.
