I should, however, like to tell the President-in-Office of the Council that our fellow citizens are concerned about these future enlargements, and above all about the continuing lack of responses to the crucial question of where Europe’s borders lie. We are of course in favour of Bulgaria’s and Romania’s accession to the EU, although these countries still need assisting in their efforts, and we are also in favour of Croatia’s accession, as it will send a strong signal to the Balkans.
Inquiets des élargissements à venir et surtout des réponses jamais apportées à la question essentielle des frontières de l’Europe. Nous soutenons, bien sûr, la Bulgarie, la Roumanie, mais il faut les accompagner encore dans leurs efforts. Nous disons oui à la Croatie, pour donner un signal fort dans les Balkans.
