Men euroen er alligevel en vigtig faktor i EU's økonomiske integration, først og fremmest for at fuldende det indre marked, eftersom jeg ikke kan forestille mig, at et indre marked skulle kunne fungere i denne verden uden nogen form for konkurrenceforvridning med fjorten forskellige møntenheder.
However, the euro will be a powerful factor in the economic integration of Europe, firstly by allowing the internal market to be perfected, because I do not know of any internal market in the world which can operate with fourteen different currencies without any distortion of competition.
