Вярно е, че трудно се оцелява в рамките на един мандат. При това, на фона на дългосрочността на усилията, един мандат от четири години е твърде кратък. Но все пак, политиците трябва да покажат и отговорност към бъдещето, което се простира отвъд следващите избори, а не само към партийните си интереси.

Just like last year's, this year's country specific recommendations make it clear that most member states need structural reforms as in some cases it is about really deep reforms. In the more developed western countries, which have been in the EU for a long time, the focus is on increasing competitiveness and additional opening of the economy in every aspect, while with the newer member states the need to handle the legacy of the past is evident. Against this backdrop, it would really be wrong if, for the sake of the austerity war, the member states, following France's example, decide to turn their backs on the Commission and continue as before. It is true that it is hard to survive in the course of one term. Especially against the backdrop of the long-termness of the efforts, one term of four years is too short a time. Nonetheless, politicians should demonstrate responsibility for the future that goes beyond the next elections, not only protecting their narrow party interests. Something that at this stage seems pretty utopian.
