Thefive Presidents wrote in their letter: "We express our expectations thatthe Copenhagen Summit final documents will contain a reference to theprospects for our countries' membership, as a strong message and impetus tocontinue on our way to EU integration," (...) "Fully aware of the hard workahead of us to achieve this goal, we are confident that our commonobjective is in favour of the realisation of our noble vision - theunification of Europe", "Opening of the perspectives for our membership inEU is very important for the deepening of ongoing democratic and reformprocesses, as well as for strengthening stability in the region". >>At the same time more than 300 parliamentarians from Albania, Armenia,Azerbaijan, Croatia, Georgia, Kosovo, Macedonia and Serbia have alreadyundersigned an appeal to the Convention, the Council, the Commission andthe European Parliament asking them to give their countries the status ofcandidate to the European Union. The 311 MPs, welcoming the "historicevent " that represents the enlargement to the ten countries of CentralEurope, note that despite the fact that they are working " hard in the faceof enormous difficulties to establish freedom, democracy and the Rule ofLaw", yet they continue " to be kept on the fringe of Europe, to beexcluded from the actual process of European unification". The appeal endby saying: " We know that the membership of each one of our countries issubject to their capacity to meet the so-called Copenhagen politicalcriteria and the economic criteria established by the Treaties and by the"Acquis communautaire". We are not asking you to give us preferentialtreatment, grant us privileges or show us favouritism, but simply to allowus to work towards reaching this fundamental goal".>>Question from Olivier Dupuis, Secretary of the Transnational Radical Partyand Member of the European Parliament, to the Council: >>What concrete political initiative does the Council intend to take inorder to recognise the will of those countries to return inside theEuropean family and to finally fulfil their legitimate aspiration to becomemember of the European Union? Is the Council aware that without a clearperspective to become member of the EU the efforts made by those countiesto strengthening democracy and Rule of Law and to ensure a strong economicdevelopment risk to be vanished and to open the way to instability or evenworse scenarios?
