Las declaraciones emitidas por esas reuniones son lo más parecido a cerrar la puerta del establo después de que el caballo haya salido corriendo y lamento que el señor Barroso diga que la crisis ha sido lo único que le ha hecho cambiar su modo de pensar.
The declarations issued by those meetings resemble nothing so much as closing the stable door after the horse has bolted, and I was sorry to hear Mr Barroso say that it was only the crisis that has changed their thinking.
