Disagreement over Schengen, a compromise on energy efficiency and Euro 2012: a quick glance back without comment on some of the events of the June plenary in Strasbourg.

Plenary zapping - June 2012

It's a question of an attempt by the Council  to re-nationalise Schengen.

So I consider for my part that the Danish  Presidency ended on the evening of 7 June.

You chose the wrong way,  a dangerous way.

The European Union is at present Peru's  second most important trade partner.

Today we say Brussels is the capital of  Europe for us, for the European Parliament.

The German and British governments  were instrumental

in killing some of the ambition  of this directive.

That is deceiving, but yesterday evening  in the final negotiations

we imposed on governments  a review clause in 2016,

when we will hopefully  get rid of all the exemptions

The serious economic and  social consequences

experienced today  by certain Member States

could have been avoided if preventative,  targeted action could have been taken.

But at the time the EU did not have  the necessary instruments.

This will now be corrected  by the combination of the six-pack

and these two new pieces of legislation,  the two-pack.
