Pour ceux qui ont la mémoire courte ou qui n'avaient pas suivi, voici comment la "majorité qualifiée" avait été obtenue en mai (un bel exemple de démocratie) :
Irish Chairman:
Belgium: abstain.
And Denmark? Can I hear from Denmark please? Denmark:
I would really like to ask the commission why they couldn't accept the last sentence put forward by the Italians, which was in the original German proposal. Ireland:
I think the Commissioner already answered that question, I'm sorry Denmark. So are you yes, no, abstain? Denmark:
I think we wouldn't, we're not hap... Ireland:
I assume you're a "yes". Denmark:
We're not happy. Ireland:
Are you 80% happy? Denmark:
But... I think we... Ireland:
We don't need you to be totally happy. None of us are totally happy. Denmark:
Oh, I know that, I know that. Ireland:
If we were, we wouldn't be here! Denmark:
I think we're not very happy, but I think we would, we would... Ireland:
Thank you very much. Denmark:
... we would like to see a solution today. Ireland:
Thank you very much, Denmark.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm happy to say that we have a qualified majority, so thank you all very very much indeed, and thank you to commissioner Bolkestein.
