(FR) Along with my mother tongue, it is my favourite language, Commissioner, but I think that this morning in particular it is inappropriate to speak in French because President Sarkozy’s mistake from the outset was to give the impression that the Union for the Mediterranean was a Franco-French idea. However, he has since become more reasonable, and that is why he must be congratulated, Mr Bonsigniore.
C'est, avec ma langue maternelle, ma langue préférée, Madame la Commissaire, mais je crois que ce matin, en particulier, il est inapproprié de parler en français, parce que l'erreur du Président Sarkozy a été, au départ, de donner l'impression que l'Union pour la Méditerranée était une idée franco-française.
