Vi skal efter min mening huske, at visse medlemsstater - uden at jeg skal give detaljer desangående - har skullet overvinde betydelig modstand og mange forbehold for at acceptere den foreliggende tekst. Derfor er jeg om ikke forsigtig så i alt fald tålmodig.
I believe that we must not forget, quite simply, that some Member States - it is not my job to name them - have already had to overcome considerable resistance and reluctance in getting this text accepted, which is why I am being, if not prudent, then at least patient, as I believe is necessary.
