Mailat sought escape from his Romanian misery and his Romanian past, but could not imagine that he would find in an Italian refugee camp as much misery as before that the image in the mirror of his daily new life would be that of a killer. People who know the frightening neighborhood of Tor di Quinto, where Giovanna Reggiani was killed have harsh words to say about the neglect and indifference of Rome s city government.

Welcome the achievements made during the Romanian Chairmanship in Office in enhancing the political profile of the SEECP as the genuine voice of the region or partner of dialogue with other regional structures.

Rather than buckle to France s will, however, the Romanian president warned France s leaders to stop lecturing his country a sure sign that French influence is on the wane even in countries with which it has had close historical ties.

At the outset, allow me, on behalf of my delegation, to commend the Romanian presidency for organizing this open debate to mark the fifth anniversary of the adoption of Security Council resolution 1325 (2000), on women and peace and security.

The case gained significance by adding fuel to the fiery public debates now underway not only in Italy but across Europe on the status of refugees and foreign residents.

Although we cannot expect a miraculous reincarnation of the criminal Mailat, we can and must ask for a radical review of the situation that marginalized people like him face. That review must be done not only by Romanian and Italian states, but by the Roma community in Romania and Italy and also by the European community itself.

While addressing the problem of unemployment and under employment, a priority remains the adoption of the necessary measures aimed at promoting efficient, job creating entrepreneurship and for increasing employment in the region as highlighted during the Conference on Entrepreneurship and Employment in South Eastern Europe, organized in May 2004 under the aegis of the Romanian Chairmanship in Office.

It is one thing to back the European project when the idea is to bind Germany so tightly to France that never again will anybody think it worthwhile to wage a war over what language is spoken in Alsace Lorraine.
