Hr. formand, vi var bekymrede forud for forhandlingen, for denne forhandling om situationen i Unionen, som vi nu har for tredje gang, må ikke blive rutinemæssig, retorisk eller overfladisk.
Mr President, we were concerned about this debate, because the debate on the state of the Union, which we are now holding for the third time, must not be either a matter of rhetorical or superficial routine.
