	European Parliament - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The debating chamber, the 'hemicycle' of the European Parliament in Brussels.
		Although Brussels is generally treated as the 'capital' of the European Union, and the two institutions of the EU's executive, the European Commission and the Council of Ministers, both have their seats there, a protocol attached to the Treaty of Amsterdam requires that the European Parliament have monthly sessions in Strasbourg.
		Thus the European Parliament is sometimes informally referred to as the 'Strasbourg Parliament' and Strasbourg as the democratic (opposed to bureaucratic) capital of Europe.

		I remarked in Athens when I spoke on behalf of the European Parliament at the signing ceremony of the accession treaties that I was first elected in 1989.
		One of the difficulties in European elections, because politics works in ebbs and flows, is a tendency in the electoral cycle of member states to regard European elections as a mid-term internal political test, as distinct from treating them in some way on its own merits, and this is a problem.
		Then I look, as an Irish European on the celtic fringe and think of the enormously strong sense of identity and self-awareness in Scotland for generations and see a Parliament that restores a capacity to politically express that identity and I see in it some merit and I believe it will be a success.

		What's more, Mrs Lalumière's positions voiced in a European context are identical to the position that the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs holds on the question of Western Sahara.
		The report further fails to mention that the Saharawis' will to independence is much more ancient than the foundation of the Polisario Front in 1973, since the Saharawis fought to liberate themselves of any occupant from the very beginning of the Spanish colonisation at the end of the 19th century.
		As president of the European Parliament intergroup "Peace for the Saharawi People", I wish to express my utmost rejection of a report that attempts at legitimising the Moroccan position with Mrs Lalumière's exclusive ambitions to give herself a role to play at the expense of international legality.
