Hr. formand, jeg takker Dem for Deres ord og for at have sammenkaldt denne plenarforsamling få dage efter det afsluttende møde i konventet og få dage før Det Europæiske Råd i Thessaloniki.
Mr President, thank you very much for your words and I would like to congratulate you on having called this plenary session just a few days after the closing session of the Convention and just a few days before the European Council in Thessaloniki.
