Fru kommissær, hvad skovproblemerne angår, vil jeg gerne sige, at selv om Deres privilegier undertiden kan være vanskelige at forstå, så har de privilegiernes fortjeneste i forhold til erklæringer, der måske køres lidt for kraftigt frem, når begivenhederne finder sted.
Commissioner, with regard to the forestry issue, I would like to say that, although your openness has sometimes made your words difficult to accept, you have, at least, been frank, in contrast with those declarations made at the time of the incidents, which may have been rather rash.
