Jeg vil for det første gerne takke Kommissionen, ikke blot for dens indsats og de muligheder, den har skabt. Det er aldrig nemt at rejse et spørgsmål af denne karakter og dybde, men jeg føler, at det var nødvendigt i det mindste at tage hul på debatten.
Firstly, to the Commission, not only for the work it has carried out and the opportunity it has provided: indeed, I think it is never easy to raise an issue of this nature and this depth, but I feel it was necessary at least to begin the debate.
