As a member of the 'Delors Committee', charged at the time with paving the way for the single currency, Alexandre was a passionate, devoted and skilled architect of the European project.

Taking into account the challenges of this step, we propose to once again follow the method used for the single currency: the “Delors Committee”, while adding a role for the ECB and democratic legitimisation at the European level via the EP: representatives of Member States (independent of the governments), working with the Commission and the ECB would draw up proposals which would be publically debated in the EP and in the Council with the intention of creating bonds with all the required guarantees: strict budgetary conditionality and macro-economic convergence, the creation of a European Treasury, an increased democratic legitimacy, e ...[+++]xternal representation of the Euro.

Intellectually speaking, this “Delors Committee 2” should also study the creation, in time, with all the required guarantees, of a Euro zone debt, based on fiscal own resources, endowed with a budget which could play a counter-cyclical role and finance productive investments, notably European “public goods” (for example environment, security)

Let us salute the pioneers who have been involved in this along the way, as you yourself have recently, Mr President, as well as my friend, Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and his Secretary of State, Manfred Lahnstein; Bernard Clappier, the governor of the Banque de France at the time and co-author of Robert Schuman’s Declaration in 1950; Alexandre Lamfalussy, who provided us with his great, almost unique expertise during the work of the committee on European monetary union which we set up with Helmut Schmidt to relaunch the project; Jacques Delors, President of the E ...[+++]uropean Commission, who took over; and, last but not least, the negotiators and signatories of the Maastricht Treaty who drafted an excellent text, which has not actually been touched since then, headed by Chancellor Helmut Kohl and President François Mitterrand, whose determination must be mentioned in particular, along with their other colleagues.
