Que ocurra por la actitud cicatera de algunos Estados me parece grave y preocupante, y que se haga de modo clandestino, una burla en el momento en que estamos celebrando la puesta en marcha de la iniciativa ciudadana europea.
For it to happen as a result of the penny-pinching attitude of some States strikes me as serious and troubling and for it to be done in a secretive way seems like a mockery at a time when we are celebrating the implementation of the European citizens ’ initiative.
