SOUNDBITE (English), Martin SCHULZ, EP President, I think there are very specific common challenges with different solutions. The European system isn&rsquo;t compatible and comparable directly to the United States but one is in common. We have federal structures in Europe like in the United States. One is the common challenge: the lack of growth and linked to the lack of growth, the increasing unemployment, especially of young people and this is becoming a worldwide problem especially for important economic powers like the United States and the European Union. We should fight together

I hope that we can deepen the cooperation between the houses, both of the houses of the Senate and the Representatives and the European Parliament. I will repeat what I said to Nancy Pelosi just. The members of the House of representatives and the Senate must understand that the European Parliament is the main interlocutor on which is concerning international trade, on which is concerning currency questions, on which is concerning regulations on the financial market, climate change&hellip; There are long lists of international problems. It&rsquo;s a list of problem we have to share.
