I will not say the fact that there are no European Union observers at an election means that it will not be fair and free.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think it is one of the fundamentals, not only of the European Union but also of free trade, that competition is fair.
European citizens expect that there will be also a fair system inside the European Union and in the euro, and that's why we have to have quite hard discipline.
Europe is a collection of free countries.
The participation in European elections was always not very exciting. People are very interested in European issues, but they don't see the person who is representing Europe.
Organising free and fair elections is more important than the result itself.
The European Union, which is not directly responsible to voters, provides an irresistible opportunity for European elites to seize power in order to impose their own vision on a newly socially regimented Europe.
As politicians we have to react to the fact that many people do not feel that they can relate to the EU.
No country is free unless it is democratic.
I do not overlook the fact that the appearance of these new, free nations in the European political community not only celebrates the return of the prodigal son but also creates new sources of friction here and there.
People feel that the EU is a one-way process, a great machine that sucks up decision-making from national parliaments to the European level until everything is decided by the EU. That needs to change.
