Hr. rådsformand, må jeg sige, at jeg som parlamentariker mener, at jeg aldrig har givet op, så længe der var håb, og jeg vil også sige, at vi forstod Dem angående tidspunktet for at integrere chartret.
Lastly, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, I believe that I have never as an MEP given up on anything so long as a glimmer of hope remained. We have taken on board what you said concerning the timetable for incorporating the Charter into the Treaties.
