Petdeset let Evropskega parlamenta
50th anniversary of the European Parliament celebrated in Strasbourg
Evropski parlament je v sredo, 12. marca, praznoval 50 let delovanja.
To celebrate the European Parliament's 50th anniversary on 19 March 2008, the presidents of the EP, the Council and the Commission each addressed the House in a special sitting in Strasbourg.
Takratna Evropska parlamentarna skupščina, ki je imela le posvetovalno moč, se je namreč prvič sestala 19. marca 1958 v Strasbourgu.
The speeches were preceded and followed by performances by the European Youth Orchestra.
Na slavnostnem delu seje so poslancem ob prisotnosti številnih nekdanjih predsednikov Parlamenta ter predstavnikov nacionalnih parlamentov držav članic Unije spregovorili Hans-Gert Pöttering, José Manuel Barroso in Janez Janša.
In his opening address, European Parliament President Hans-Gert Pöttering first welcomed several former presidents of the European Parliament, the president of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, speakers of national parliaments and numerous other dignitaries.
V petih desetletjih se je iz skupščine s 142 imenovanimi člani in štirimi jeziki razvil neposredno izvoljeni parlament, ki ima zakonodajne pristojnosti ter 23 uradnih jezikov.
Mr Pöttering stressed that "step by step, the European Parliament has fought to secure more and more rights and has become ever more aware of its responsibility and of what it can do; and today it does credit to its name".
Nadzorujemo Evropsko komisijo, volimo njenega predsednika in Komisija mora od nas dobiti zaupnico. (...)
Talking about the Reform Treaty President Pöttering said "The Treaty of Lisbon will further strengthen our rights.
Postali smo samozavestni faktor moči v evropski politiki in tega se lahko iskreno veselimo, saj predstavljamo blizu 500 milijonov državljank in državljanov Evrope."
In future, decisions on important issues now of concern to citizens in the European Union can be taken only if the European Parliament gives its consent".
Glede Lizbonske pogodbe je predsednik dejal, da bo še okrepila moč institucije, saj se bodo v prihodnosti pomembne evropske odločitve sprejemale le s podporo Parlamenta in dodal: "Pogodba in Listina o temeljnih pravicah bosta pomemben prispevek k demokraciji in parlamentarizmu na vseh ravneh v Evropski uniji.
"The Treaty of Lisbon and the Charter of Fundamental Rights will make a decisive contribution towards making democracy and parliamentarianism in the European Union a reality at all levels.
Na našo vztrajno podporo tako Pogodbi kot Listini smo lahko upravičeno ponosni."
We can be proud of our consistent support for the Reform Treaty and for the Charter of Fundamental Rights."
Na koncu govora je Pöttering omenil še vlogo nacionalnih parlamentov: "Sodelovanje med Evropskim parlamentom in parlamenti držav članic je deležno naše posebne pozornosti.
To applause from the House, he stressed the role of national parliaments, saying "the cooperation between the European Parliament and national parliaments is of special concern to us.
Prizadevali si bomo, da ga v prihodnosti še poglobimo."
We must endeavour, in future, to maintain that cooperation".
Predsedujoči Evropskemu svetu, predsednik Vlade Republike Slovenije, Janez Janša je evropske parlamentarce nagovoril s citatom Roberta Schumana ob otvoritvi Evropske parlamentarne skupščine, da njegov nagovor ne more biti čustveno hladen in nadaljeval: "Pogled na prehojeno pot in na razcvet evropske demokracije v zadnjih petih desetletjih nas lahko navdaja s ponosom ter z velikim občutkom hvaležnosti do očetov evropske ideje.
Mr Janša recalled that, in the aftermath of two wars and in a world dominated by East-West tensions, "six Member States of the European Communities brought together 168 million Europeans, healed the wounds of the war, made economic progress and, together with the Euro-Atlantic alliance, safeguarded an area of freedom and democracy" - although "most of the remaining part of Europe, regrettably, existed in a totalitarian Communist environment".
Hkrati pa nam nalaga odgovornost, da po svojih močeh prispevamo k nadaljevanju evropske zgodbe miru, sodelovanja in blaginje."
But now, he said, an "entirely different image presents itself".
Janša je nato primerjal Evropo pred 50 leti in današnji čas, ki ga ne zaznamuje več tekmovanje temveč sodelovanje, kjer so meje odpravljene in vsa celina živi v svobodi in demokraciji.
With the "elimination of the borders that once divided Europe", "practically all of wider Europe now also lives in freedom and democracy.
Orisal je širitev pristojnosti Parlamenta in izrazil zadovoljstvo, ker so evropski poslanci potrdili Lizbonsko pogodbo, ki pomeni velik korak naprej, ter ob tem čestital državam, ki so jo že ratificirale.
This is an achievement worth embracing and celebrating."
Predsedujoči Evropskemu svetu je dodal, da za vse aktivnosti EU velja eno samo pravilo: "Uspeh raste premo sorazmerno z enotnostjo – enotnostjo med državami članicami, sektorji, interesnimi skupinami in generacijami; med regionalnimi, nacionalnimi, evropskimi in globalnimi dejavniki.
The existence and the operation of the European Parliament from 1958 is "a direct reflection of the progress achieved in the process of integration over the past fifty years", he added.
Institucije EU moramo biti za vzgled."
However, "if the first fifty years of the EU have been dedicated to the European agenda – to our own political and economic development and reform – the next fifty years will also put the global agenda at the forefront of our attention."
Spomnil je na Jeana Monneta, ki je nekoč dejal, da vsak človek začne svet na novo, samo institucije, ki hranijo kolektivno izkušnjo pa zorijo; to je tudi ena od razlag, zakaj številni v Evropi kljub očitnim uspehom še vedno dvomijo v prednosti povezovanja: "Da bi razumeli in cenili svobodo, mir, raznolikost, brezmejnost, ugodnost in perspektivnost združene Evrope, se moramo vselej zavedati, da obstajajo tudi druge, mnogo slabše alternative.
Apart from economic issues, energy and climate change, Mr Janša highlighted human rights and intercultural dialogue as areas in which the European Parliament plays a key role.
Zato je naša skupna naloga, da obujamo evropsko kolektivno izkušnjo.
The range of EU activities is increasing all the time but a single rule applies to them all: "success is directly proportional to unity".
Iz nje lahko črpamo moč za spopad z aktualnimi izzivi.
In the words of Jean Monnet, “Each man begins the world afresh.
Pogled nazaj moramo združiti z mislijo za naprej. (...)
Only institutions grow wiser; they accumulate collective experience.”
Če ne bomo skupaj iskali nizkoogljičnih in energetsko varčnih rešitev, nam ne bo uspelo upočasniti podnebnih sprememb.
"Our joint task is therefore to promote the European collective experience.
Soočali se bomo z vedno več poplavami, orkani, sušami, novimi boleznimi, ogroženimi ekosistemi in »podnebnimi begunci«.
From this experience, we can draw the strength to address current challenges", argued Mr Janša.
Bistveno je, da so rezultati evropskih odločitev in aktivnosti dovolj konkretni in otipljivi, da državljani razumejo odločilen pomen EU za ohranitev in dvig kvalitete življenja."
On a personal note, the prime minister told the House "I know what this time represents for our generation, being born myself in the same year as the European Parliament" and he looked forward to "the next major anniversary of this home of European democracy".
Gre za drugačen način delovanja, ki spoštuje skupna pravila in na drugi strani načela subsidiarnosti.
The founding fathers foresaw that Europe needed lasting and strong institutions to enshrine the ever-deeper links among the Six.
Gradili so Evropo za mir na podlagi solidarnosti, uporabili so gospodarstvo kot motor ideje.
"We owe this success to the ingenuity and balance of our institutional construction, which does not follow the usual distribution of powers.
Imamo Evropo miru, ki se razteza čez vso celino in ima načine, kako se odzivati na izzive."
We owe it also to the way we work, which respects both the Community method and subsidiarity", he added.
Barroso je orisal, kako so se skozi zgodovino širile pristojnosti Parlament, ki bo z Lizbonsko pogodbo še močnejši nepogrešljiv partner Komisije, kar pomeni tudi močnejšo Evropo: "Nobena od naših institucij se ne sme krepiti na škodo drugih.
Fifty years on, Europe, living in peace and spanning the continent, still needs strong institutions to tackle the challenge of our time: globalisation.
Nasprotno, vsi si želimo močnejših evropskih institucij, če želimo biti učinkovitejši.
Its experience of opening markets, accompanied by rules that reflect its values of freedom, solidarity and sustainable development, mean that "Europe alone has the dimensions, institutions and instruments necessary to shape globalisation", said the President.
Vse institucije lahko izkoristijo tako arhitekturo."
Mr Barroso saluted Parliament's contribution to the European project, in every field of daily life.
Govorom je sledil kratek koncert Evropskega mladinskega orkestra pod vodstvom dirigenta Pavla Kotle .
Some of this power derives from the peoples' votes.
Mladi glasbeniki so zaigrali naslednja dela: - Jeremiah Clarke : Marš danskega kraljeviča; - Carl Nielsen : Mala suita, a-mol, op.
Some is formal, such as co-decision and budgetary powers.
1; - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart : Mala nočna glasba, K525, Rondo Allegro ; - Hugo Wolf : Italijanska serenada; - Johann Strauss : Pizzicato polka; - Ludwig van Beethoven : Oda radosti.
And some derives from political influence - Parliament has become a co-legislator and an influential partner in the institutional triangle, but has also developed close links with national parliaments, he said.
Praznovanje rojstnega dne s torto in zdravicami se je nato preselilo iz plenarne dvorane.
Parliament's power has strengthened Europe as a whole.
Ob 50. obletnici delovanja Parlamenta je Generalni direktorat za komuniciranje pripravil informativni material, ki je na voljo predstavnikom medijev:
A strong European Parliament is an indispensable partner for other institutions, and in particular the European Commission, said the President, adding that the Lisbon Treaty, once ratified, will extend Parliament's powers, and also strengthen the Commission's dual democratic legitimacy through stronger links with Parliament and the Council.

Mr Barroso concluded with a quote from Portuguese writer Agustina Bessa Luis: "At 15 years old you have a future; at 25, a problem; at 40, experience; but before 50 years old, you have no history".

Priprave na spomladanski Evropski svet
Estonian President Ilves on Europe's past and future
Na začetku vrha bo udeležence nagovoril tudi predsednik Evropskega parlamenta.
But he also stressed the need for Europeans to remember "where we came from and how we got here".
Državni sekretar Lenarčič je v predstavitvi poudaril, da "se Evropska unija danes sooča z novimi izzivi.
At the start of his address, President Ilves first pointed out that "as Estonia is about to enter its fifth year as a member of our Union, we no longer are 'new members' ".
Vendar pa se moramo zavedati, da globalizacija od Unije in držav članic terja tudi prilagoditve in iskanje pravih odgovorov."
He then turned to the challenges facing the EU, saying "Here and today I want to look ahead when we are all old or older members, ten years into the future".
Evropski svet bo tako ocenil stanje izvajanja prenovljene Lizbonske strategije in predvidoma potrdil njeno dobro delovanje.
He pointed to two external issues, "global warming and declining availability of fossil fuels" as well as an internal one: "the competitiveness of the European Union".
Voditelji Unije bodo poudarili, da se je treba osredotočiti na izvajanje in tudi formalno začeli novi cikel strategije za obdobje 2008–2010 .
On the latter question, he said "we need to be grateful to Jean Monnet and later Jacques Delors for creating the Single Market" for "it is the Single Market that allows individual European nations to keep themselves competitive on the global arena".
Del strategije je tudi uvedba "pete svoboščine" , ki bo odpravila obstoječe prepreke za prost pretok znanja, in uresničevanje načrta za boljšo zakonodajo za krepitev konkurenčnosti zlasti malih in srednjih podjetij v EU.
However, "Current thinking in the EU is not a cause for optimism" for two reasons: "the lack-lustre fulfilment" of the Lisbon Agenda and "the EU’s increasing turn to protectionism".
Voditelji vlad in držav EU bodo izmenjali mnenja tudi o nedavnih razmerah na mednarodnih finančnih trgih .
Turning to EU enlargement and the European Neighbourhood Policy, the president asked "How large will our Union be in 2018?".
Prav tako smo pred pomembno nalogo zagotoviti še več trajnosti s pomočjo naše podnebne in energetske politike.
He went on to say "We need to return to the fundamental understanding that has made the EU successful: national interests are best served when we all give up a little so that the Union as a whole is successful".
Glede na prihodnje izzive si želimo tudi resnično tvornega sodelovanja z Evropskim parlamentom.
The need "to think more in terms of regions" was also important.
Če nam skupaj uspe doseči napredek, bodo evropski državljani uvideli, da je EU tu zato, da bi poskrbela za njihovo prihodnost."
"Here the Parliament has shown that it can play a larger role than ever imagined", said Mr Ilves, adding "I am proud that an initiative I was associated with when I was here, the Baltic Sea Strategy is one of the first EU policies that actually started here, right here in the European Parliament".
Predstavniki političnih skupin Joseph DAUL (EPP-ED, FR): "Treba se je zavzeti in okrepiti cilje Lizbonske strategije: gre za priložnost, ki pa ne sme potekati na nenadzorovan način.
"Our task, my dear colleagues, is to know our Europe", he continued, and cited "one of the greatest Europeans of the 20th century", Salvador de Madariaga, who when in exile from the Franco regime had said:
Vse to naj predstavlja dodano vrednost.
Then Europe will live.
Zato pozivam države članice, da veliko investirajo v raziskovanje in rast.
Mr Ilves' closing words were "Europe is far from complete, we still have so much to do.
Ne gre le za razvoj majhnih in srednje velikih podjetij, temveč tudi za ustvarjanje novih delovnih mest.
In my homeland, Estonia, when we have a great task to fulfil, we say: may we have the strength to do it".
Naša konkurenčnost bo sprejemljiva, če se bomo znali prilagajati.
The summit will begin with an address from the EP President, Hans-Gert Pöttering, followed by a discussion.
Demografske spremembe in staranje prebivalstva predstavljata pritisk na socialni sistem.
Investing in training and adaptability would also help to relieve the economic pressures of population ageing, he said.
Na področju podnebnih sprememb moramo prav tako prilagoditi politiko, varovati okolje in si prizadevati za zmanjšanje toplogrednih plinov za 20 odstotkov.
On climate change, Mr Daul stressed that Europe must invest in green technology, but must also enjoin its trading partners to do likewise.
To bo tudi dobro izhodišče, sami pa moramo dati zgled."
On social policy, he said that the public must be told the truth - i.e. there will no social progress without economic growth.
Martin SCHULZ (PES, DE): "Izvedeli smo, da se bo jutri na večerji govorilo tudi o sredozemski uniji.
For the Socialist group, Martin SCHULZ (DE) noted that Ministers were to discuss the idea of a "Mediterranean Union" over dinner, reportedly at France's suggestion.
