  Daniel Marc Cohn-Bendit (Verts/ALE). – (FR) Clearly, Mr President, I do not understand a thing. Mr Wurtz stated that the proposal had been made well after the Conference of Presidents. If Mr Wurtz is right, then the Conference of Presidents, which took place beforehand, was unable to examine the proposal, and that seems logical to me.

The person who made the proposal is the chairman of the Confederal Group of the European United Left/Nordic Green Left. He just told us and you and I both heard him that he made the proposal after the Conference of Presidents. Given that the proposal was made after the Conference of Presidents, that Conference, which took place beforehand, was unable to debate it. That argument seems unanswerable to me.

Secondly, I will be very clear: if the two main groups are against a resolution being submitted, then there will be no resolution. I would, however, like a vote to be held in this Chamber in order to decide whether or not there will be a resolution. You have your arguments, and they are genuine; I, for my part, have other arguments that are just as genuine. The majority will decide. That is democracy, thank you.
