Vertaling van "anyone initially thought " (Engels → Frans) :

And as we all well know, enlargement negotiations with a country are usually time-consuming, they take a very long time, they require consultation and negotiation on a great many issues and they very often take far more time to complete than anyone initially thought they might need.
Et comme nous le savons tous pertinemment, les négociations d'élargissement avec un pays prennent généralement du temps, elles prennent très longtemps, elles requièrent des consultations et des négociations sur un grand nombre de questions.

But maybe anyone else on the committee who would like to, if they do have some thoughts on this, they could give them to you, Jamie, and then it could be included, at least as a suggestion, which doesn't commit anybody or anything, but at least get it into the report initially.
Mais peut-être que si un autre membre du comité a des idées là-dessus, il pourrait vous en faire part, Jamie, et cela pourrait alors être inclus, au moins sous forme de suggestion, ce qui n'engage personne à rien, mais l'on pourrait au moins le mettre dans le rapport initialement.
