When we deal with these subjects, however, I think it might be a good idea if, once in a while, we were to take stock of what we are actually doing when we take these initiatives, which are, of course, all offshoots of the Schengen Convention and ideas about the ‘area of democracy, freedom and justice’ we talk so much about.
J'estime que nous devrions, dans le cadre de l'examen de ces problèmes, faire le bilan de ces initiatives, qui découlent toutes de l'accord de Schengen et des idées d'un "espace de démocratie, de liberté et de justice" dont on parle tant.
