Jeg tror, at euroen bliver et meget centralt punkt til fremme af den europæiske integration, men jeg ønsker at gøre det klart, at det politiske tidspunkt ikke var det bedste for reformen af traktaterne.
I believe that the euro will provide an extremely important focus for the progress of European integration, but I wish to make clear that the political circumstances for revising the Treaties were not as favourable as they could have been.
