I do not understand how anyone can reject the Charter because it does not cover everything which they would like it to. The hopes of no one person here have been fully realised because the Charter cannot mirror the views of one section of the population alone, it must be the common point of reference of all those who feel that they are European citizens, in respect for the differences of others and peaceful co-existence.
Je crois que personne d'entre nous n'y retrouve toutes ses aspirations, parce que la Charte ne peut être le reflet d'une partie, mais bien le point de référence commun de tous ceux qui se sentent citoyens européens respectueux des différences et de la cohabitation.
