Vprašanje je tudi, ali dve stavbi Parlamenta pravzaprav ne pomenita razsipništva.
It is an open question whether having two Parliament buildings is a waste.

27. junij 1989: prvi rezi na železni zavesi
On this day: 27 June - the Iron Curtain was breached
27 junij1989: avstrijski zunanji minister Alois Mock (levo) in madžarski zunanji minister Gyula Horn sta prerezala bodečo žico, ki je ločevala Avstrijo in Madžarsko.©BELGA/EPA/ROBERT JAEGER Danes se le redko kdo še spominja, da je bila železna zavesa pravzaprav prvič fizično prerezana pri Sopronu, madžarskem mestu na meji z Avstrijo, poleti leta 1989.
27 June 1989: The Foreign ministers of Austria, Alois Mock (L) and Hungary, Gyula Horn (R) cut through the barbed wire that separated the two countries, creating the first breach in the Iron Curtain. ©Belga/EPA/R.Jaegar The first breach of the Iron Curtain which divided Communist Central and Eastern Europe from the West for over decades took place 20 years ago today.
Leta 1989, ko je na deset tisoče vzhodnih Nemcev bežalo na Madžarsko, sta se 27. junija istega leta takratni madžarski minister za zunanje zadeve Gyula Horn in njegov avstrijski kolega Alois Mock odločila, da bosta skupaj prerezala bodečo žico blizu mesta Sopron.
Just outside the Hungarian town of Sopron, Austrian Foreign Minister Alois Mock joined his Hungarian counterpart Gyula Horn in cutting the fence on 27 June 1989.
Železna zavesa je od konca druge svetovne vojne simbolizirala ideološko in fizično ločevanje Evrope na Vzhod in Zahod.
It led to a stream of people heading west and climaxed in the fall of the Berlin Wall in November that year.
Z njenim padcem se je končala tudi hladna vojna.
On this day MEPs from both countries share their thoughts and memories.
Težko je verjeti, da vzhodni Evropejci še pred dvema desetletjema niso mogli potovati in se izražati svobodno, na stotine pa jih je izgubilo svoje življenje, ko so poskušali pobegniti na Zahod.
The physical barrier that divided Europe was originally installed to stop the tide of people fleeing Soviet rule in the east.
Delček bodeče žice je bil podarjen tudi Pötteringu in Barrosu
An estimated 15 million people headed west in the five years after 1945.
Madžar József Szájer (EPP-ED) je evropski poslanec od leta 2004.
The phrase "Iron Curtain" was coined by Winston Churchill in his famous speech at Fulton, Missouri in 1946.
V osemdesetih je bil član demokratične opozicije, ki se je s takratno vladajočo komunistično stranko pogajala o demokratičnemu procesu tranzicije.
Standing next to US President Harry Truman he said: "From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an 'iron curtain' has descended across the Continent.
Povedal nam je, da je, kot meščan Soprona, mejo z Avstrijo prvič prestopil šele pri svojih dvajsetih letih.
Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe - Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia."
"S tem sem jih želel spomniti, da se lahko tudi najbolj zatiralni režimi zrušijo."
I gave it to European politicians whose countries have been living in freedom for a longer time than ours so as to remind them every day that even the most oppressive regimes can be overthrown."
"Bilo je kot leta 1956"
"It was like in 1956"
Avstrijska socialdemokratka Christa Prets je evropska poslanka že od leta 1999.
Outgoing Austrian MEP Christa Prets was someone who remembers those events well.
Preden je prišla v Parlament je bila županja in svetnica na avstrijskem Gradiščanskem.
From 1987 to 1999, she was Mayor and Councillor in Burgenland, the Austrian State that borders Hungary.
Je iz mesta Eisenstadt, ki je blizu madžarske meje.
She told us: "There was a fascination.
To je bil zgodovinski dogodek za celotno regijo, odprte meja pa je prineslo številne prednosti za obe strani, zlasti za prebivalce ob meji, je dejala Pretsova.
Today, if you need some documents related to the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, then you need to go to the archive of Sopron, that was the biggest city in Burgenland at a time, a thing which you could not do before without waiting for hours at the Iron Curtain" she said.
Presenečenje na Vzhodu je bilo popolno
June 1989: "left me and my friends quite stunned"
Gisela Kallenbach, nemška aktivistka za državljanske pravice in evropska poslanka za skupino Zelenih v obdobju med letoma 2004 in 2009, je doraščala v Nemški demokratični republiki.
Gisela Kallenbach was a German civil rights activist and an MEP between 2004 and 2009.
Zaradi svojega krščanskega prepričanja ji ni bilo dovoljeno, da bi naredila maturo.
Growing up in East Germany she was not allowed to take her school "Abitur" exam due to her social background and her Christian denomination.
"Dogodki na avstrijsko-madžarski meji junija leta 1989 so meni in mojim prijateljem popolnoma vzeli sapo.
She told us of her reaction: "What happened in June 1989 at the Austrian-Hungarian border left me and my friends quite stunned.
"Bali pa smo se tudi, da bo tako še več naših prijateljev, družinskih članov in kolegov odšlo na zlati Zahod.
And secondly because we had to fear that now an even greater number of our friends, family members and colleagues would leave for the Golden West."
Jaz sem bila ena tistih, ki so jeseni 1989 kričali 'Mi ostanemo!', kot odziv na krik množice, da želijo ven."
She went on: "I was one of those who in autumn 1989 were shouting 'we are staying' in response to the rallying cry 'we want to get out'.
Prepričana je, da je bila odstranitev bodeče žice pri Sopronu pomemben korak na poti k svobodni demokraciji in združeni Nemčiji.
In the end, cutting the border fence was an important step on the path towards a free democracy and a united Germany.
"Zato se moramo zahvaliti madžarski vladi tistega časa za njihov pogum," je zaključila Kallenbachova.
Therefore one needs to thank the Hungarian government of the time for its courage."
1945-1989: razdeljena Evropa
Europe divided 1945-1989
Železno zaveso si je uvedel Winston Churchill leta 1946
"Iron Curtain" coined by Churchill in 1946.
Bila je postavljena, da bi preprečila pobege prebivalcev iz držav pod sovjetskim režimom na Zahod.
Built to stop westward exodus from Soviet rule.
Samo v petih letih, med letoma 1945 in 1950, je iz vzhodnih držav zbežalo 15 milijonov ljudi.
Between 1945 and 1950, over 15 million people fled Soviet rule in Central and Eastern Europe
Po postavitvi železne zavese je med letoma 1950 in 1990 na Zahod emigriralo 13,3 milijona ljudi
Between 1950 and 1990, due to the Iron Curtain, only 13.3 million people emigrated westward.

V vrtinec predsedovanja Uniji: švedska ministrica Cecilia Malmström
Into the EU Presidency maelstrom: Sweden's Europe Minister Cecilia Malmström
Švedska bo Uniji začela predsedovati 1. julija Švedska bo ta teden prevzela predsedovanje Uniji.
Europarl Today: Stockholm looks to Copenhagen as Sweden takes over the presidency As Sweden takes up the EU Presidency this week we spoke to European Affairs Minister Cecilia Malmström.
Ob tej priložnosti smo spregovorili s švedsko ministrico za evropske zadeve in nekdanjo evropsko poslanko Cecilijo Malmström.
As unemployment in Europe rises and the economic crisis gets deeper the Swedes will have to coordinate the EU's response.
Švedi bodo morali v naslednjih šestih mesecih usklajevati odzive Evropske unije na trenutna pereča vprašanja, kot sta povečanje brezposelnosti v Evropi in poglabljanje ekonomske krize.
Added to this will be the need to find an international environmental agreement that replaces the Kyoto protocol before the December deadline.
Še pred decembrom pa bo treba sprejeti novi mednarodni okoljski sporazum, ki bo nadomestil Kjotski protokol.
A former MEP turned Minister Ms Malmström laid out the key issues ahead.
Ekonomija in podnebne spremembe so v ospredju
Economic and climate dangers to dominate
Malmströmova je poudarila, da smo v najbolj resni finančni krizi moderne dobe, brezposelnost pa naj bi se še to jesen ponovno povečala.
Ms Malmström told us starkly that "we are experiencing the most serious financial crisis in modern times, and unemployment in EU is expected to rise in the autumn".
"Potreba po delujočemu evropskemu sodelovanju je bila le redko kdaj bolj pomembna kot danes."
Here we see that need for functioning European cooperation has seldom been more important".
Švedska si bo zato prizadevala za preprečitev negativnih posledic ekonomske krize na rast in zaposlovanje, hkrati pa bo morala EU nadaljevati z bojem proti podnebnim spremembam, je povedala Malmströmova.
She said that "the Swedish presidency therefore hopes to be able to keep up the work to combat the negative influences of the economic crisis on growth and employment; at the same time we want the EU to continue pushing the climate agenda forward.
Upanje je v novem mednarodnem podnebnem sporazumu, ki naj bi bil dosežen na vrhu Združenih narodov decembra v Kopenhagnu.
The hope is a new international climate deal on the UN-summit in Copenhagen in December".
Od evropske poslanke do ministrice?
MEP to Minister?
Malmströmova je bila med letoma 1999 in 2006 evropska poslanka v skupini liberalnih demokratov.
Married with two children 41-year old Cecilia Malmström was a Liberal Member of the European Parliament from 1999 to 2006.
Ko je švedska desno sredinska koalicija leta 2006 zmagala na volitvah in odvzela sedež socialdemokratom, ki so bili na oblasti vse od vojne, je Malmströmova postala ministrica za evropske zadeve.
She took up her post as EU-Minister after the 2006 Swedish elections when a centre-right coalition, "The Alliance for Sweden", unseated the Social Democratic Party which had dominated Swedish politics since the war.
Od svojega službovanja v Evropskem parlamentu pogreša zlasti občutek, da si kot evropski poslanec zmeraj v središču evropskih razprav.
She says she enjoys her current role but "of course I miss many of my friends and colleagues in the European Parliament, as well as the feeling one has as an MEP of always being in the centre of European debates".
"Kot evropski poslanec imaš poleg zakonodajnega dela zmeraj pomembno vlogo kot oblikovalec mnenja.
As an MEP you have, together with the legislative work, an important role as opinion maker.
To je veliko težja vloga kot biti minister," je dejala nekdanja poslanka.
It is more difficult to have this role as a minister".
Švedi bolj naklonjeni EU
Are Swedes warming to the EU?
Švedska, ki se je Evropski uniji priključila leta 1995, je bila dolgo časa poznana kot evroskeptična članica.
Sweden, which joined the European Union in 1995, has long been known as a reluctant member of the Union.
Razlog za to je bil zlasti strah pred tem, da bi na račun Unije trpela njihova zelo občudovana socialna varnost.
Fears that its much admired social security and welfare protection would suffer allied to its traditional neutrality partly explain this trend.
Vendar pa je na letošnjih evropskih volitvah udeležba na Švedskem poskočila kar za 8 odstotkov in sicer s 37,8 odstotkov v letu 2004 na 45,5 odstotkov.
However, at the last European elections voter turnout jumped 8% from 37.8% in 2004 to 45, 5%.
Javnomnenjske raziskave so pokazale, da se vse več Švedov vedno bolje počuti v EU, je dejala ministrica.
We asked the Minister whether this signified a changing of attitudes to the Union: "Opinion polls show that more and more Swedes feel at ease with the EU and the Swedish membership" she said.
Predsedovanje pod "posebnimi okoliščinami"
A Presidency under "special circumstances"
Švedski premier minister Fredrik Reinfeldt bo 15. julija na plenarnem zasedanju Evropskega parlamenta v Strasbourgu predstavil prednostne naloge švedskega predsedovanja Uniji.
On 15 July the Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt (Moderate Party) will present the Presidency priorities to the European Parliament in Strasbourg.
"Naše predsedovanje se bo odvijalo pod posebnimi okoliščinami.
Speaking in Brussels-seminar earlier this month he said: "our Presidency will take place under very special circumstances.

Svež veter z novim statutom evropskih poslancev
Fresh start with new Members' Statute
Novi začetek za 736 evropskih poslancev Pred junijskimi volitvami je Evropski parlament sprejel vrsto reform, katerih namen je državljanom pojasniti tako same volitve, kakor tudi način delovanja in plače poslancev.
736 MEPs will take up their new duties on 14 July Incoming MEPs will benefit from and be subject to the new Member's Statute that enters into force with the new term.
Za politične stranke bodo začela veljati nova pravila o financiranju na evropski ravni, s skupnimi pravili naj bi zmanjšali razlike med poslanskimi plačami.
This regulation for the first time ensures that MEPs from all countries will have the same status, also in terms of their salaries, pensions, sickness insurance.
Enotna plača za poslance
Previously there were huge disparities by nationality.
Junija 2005 je Parlament z veliko večino potrdil enotni statut o poslancih.
New clearer rules on expenses and allowances complete the overall reform.
Evropski poslanci bodo dohodnino plačevali v proračun EU, države članice pa bodo še vedno imele možnost, da jih dodatno obdavčijo do stopnje, ki velja v matičnih državah.
Until now, however, a glaring exception remained to the principle that MEPs were subject to a unified status - namely their salaries, pensions and social benefits.
Več preglednosti pri stroških in pokojninah
The salary - a judgmental question
Evropski poslanci bodo vključeni tudi v enotno pokojninsko shemo, v katero bo prispevke plačeval Parlament.
Other, more measurable and comparable expenses, like office costs will remain covered with a flat-rate sum.
Pravila o plačah pomočnikov
Who assists the assistants?
Nova pravila o nadomestilih stroškov poslancem za plačilo pomočnikov bodo rešila pomanjkljivosti, ki so se pokazale v sedaj veljavnem sistemu.
Now, assistants based in Brussels will be a special category of EP staff, with temporary contracts to expire at the end of parliamentary term.
Od junija 2009 bodo pogodbe za pomočnike v državah članicah upravljali pooblaščeni plačilni agenti, ki bodo morali zagotoviti skladnost z nacionalnimi določbami o socialni varnosti in davkih.
They will have similar social benefits to those of EU civil servants, and their salaries will be dependent on their grade.
Pomočnike, nastanjene v Bruslju, obravnava dodatek k statutu Parlamenta, ki govori o evropskih uradnikih in drugih zaposlenih v instituciji.
Assistants based in the Member States – those who work in MEP’s constituency offices, for example – will be paid via qualified payroll agents.
Pogodbe in izplačilo plač bodo v pristojnosti ustreznih parlamentarnih služb, poslanci pa bodo imeli pri izbiri pomočnikov, dodeljevanju nalog in trajanja njihovih pogodb popolnoma proste roke, vendar pa za pomočnike ne bodo smeli zaposlovati ožjih družinskih članov.
MEPs will be still entirely free in their choice of assistants, although close family members can no longer be employed – there is a transition period for those who were already in post during the previous term.

Novi poslanci v EP: Kristiina Ojuland in Timo Soini
A Baltic breeze in Brussels - new MEPs Kristiina Ojuland and Timo Soini
Estonka Kristiina Ojuland (levo) in Finec Timo Soini prispela v Evropski parlament.
Kristiina Ojuland (Estonian) and Finn Timo Soini arrive for their first day at the office.
Le kaj bo prineslo naslednjih pet let?
Time to reflect on what the next 5 years will bring.
Prvi koraki v EP: preverjanje ustreznih dokumentov in obisk sejnih sob.
Checking in and getting essential documents is key - as is finding some of the meeting rooms.
Soini: "Kar te ne ubije, hudičevo boli."
Their respective mottos are: Soini: "What doesn't kill you hurts like hell".
Ojuland: "Ne letim više, kot te lahko ponesejo krila."
Ojuland: "Don't fly higher than your wings can carry you".
Na labirinte hodnikov se bo treba navaditi.
Finding their way around the corridors of Brussels and Strasbourg will be one of their first tasks.
Neprestano v središču zanimanja medijev.
An ability to deal confidently with the media and get your point across are keys aspects of being a modern MEP.
Približuje se prvo plenarno zasedanje novega Evropskega parlamenta (14. do 16. julij) in v Bruselj prihaja vse več novo izvoljenih evropskih poslancev.
Two new MEPs hoping to make their mark are Estonia's Kristiina Ojuland and Finland's Timo Soini.
Na recepciji smo naleteli na Estonko Kristiino Ojuland in Finca Timota Soinija, ko sta kot evropska poslanca naredila prve korake v svoj petletni mandat.
They are hoping to use their new position as a platform to raise issues about northern Europe and the countries that surround the Baltic Sea.
Pospremili smo ju skozi EP in izkoristili priložnost, da ju povprašamo o njunih prvih vtisih v Evropskem parlamentu.
Ms Ojuland is a former diplomat who wants to be active in foreign affairs whilst Mr Soini wants to use Brussels as a way of becoming an "even better" politician in Finland.
Liberalna demokratka Kristiina Ojuland je bila od leta 2004 poslanka v estonskemu parlamentu, pred tem pa je bila leto dni ministrica za zunanje zadeve.
Prior to being elected as a Liberal candidate Kristiina Ojuland was Estonia's foreign Minister (2002-2004).
To pa je tudi področje, ki bi ga želela zastopati v Evropskem parlamentu.
She lists Margaret Thatcher among the people the 43-year old admires.
Tudi Timo Soini je zadnjih šest let služboval kot nacionalni poslanec, je pa tudi soustanovitelj in predsednik stranke True Finns (resnični Finci).
Timo Soini is leader and co-founder of the "True Finns" party which he formerly represented in the Finnish Parliament.
V Evropskem parlamentu se je pridružil skupini Neodvisnost/Demokracija.
For both the first session of the Parliament will be in Strasbourg from 14-16 July.
Dobro pa poznam Strasbourg, kjer sem delala vse od leta 1992.
Perhaps not so much in Brussels but more in Strasbourg where I have worked since 1992 on and off.
Ali je Evropski parlament vaša odskočna deska ali višek vaše kariere?
Is becoming a MEP for you a springboard or a culmination of your career?
To je nova izkušnja v mojem življenju in od nje veliko pričakujem.
I guess it is a stage in my life and I have lots of expectations about it.
V evropskih vodah sem že več let, a nikoli še nisem bila evropska poslanka.
I am not going to get lost in the corridors here and retire in 5 years - I want to be active here and in Estonia.
Kdaj ste se začeli ukvarjati s politiko?
What drove you to enter politics?
Leta 1992, ko sem na prvih svobodnih volitvah podpirala najbolj inovativno politično stranko.
I entered politics in 1992 with the first free elections to support the most innovative political party.
Začela sem kot mlada diplomatka, vendar je življenje šlo drugačno pot in vesela sem, da je tako.
I entered as a young diplomat because that was what I wanted to be but life made its corrections and I am very happy about it.
Na katera področja bi se želeli usmeriti pri svojem delu v EP?
In which areas would you like to put most of your efforts?
Verjeti moraš v to, kar počneš.
You must believe in what you do.
Delati moraš s strastjo in zavzetostjo.
There must be some passion and you must work hard.
Tu je 736 članov in težko je pustiti pečat.
There are 736 members and it is difficult to become known.
Risbo, ki mi jo je podarila reformna politična skupina iz estonskega parlamenta.
The Reform party group from Riigikogu (Estonian Parliament) gave me a drawing which is picturing the port of Kaberneeme (her home).
