Tasavallan Presidentti Sauli Niinistö
piti merkittävän puheen Boaon kokouksessa 07.04.2013. Alla ote
puheesta, jossa hän käsittelee yhteisesti demokraattisesti
sovittujen pelisääntöjen noudattamisen tärkeyttä. ”Kauniita
sääntöjä voimme suunnitella meille, mutta ne eivät johda
mihinkään ellemme osaa elää sääntöjen mukaisesti”.
Olen itse tehnyt eurokriisin
ratkaisemisesta vastaavan esityksen marraskuussa 2011 SDP:n
puoluekokoukselle 2012 -siksi tämä ote.

ote Sauli Niinstön merkittävästä EU-puheesta joka ansaitsee
laajan julkisen käsittelyn Suomessakin/JR
”But
rules alone mean little unless necessary self-discipline and trust
exist. It can be argued that we actually had a sufficient number and
quality of rules. But many of us seriously lacked self-discipline
and, consequently, trusteroded as well. We can design beautiful rules
for ourselves, but they lead nowhere unless we can live according to
them. A community of empty slogans would not stand the test of time.
And history will test all of our slogans.
I am
confident that revitalizing the EU and its competitiveness is not
onlyabout economics. At its core, it is about politics. Our economic
problems cannot be solved in a technocratic or juridical manner,
however nice or handy that might sound. They have to be solved
through a democraticpolitical negotiation within and between the
European societies. Without thisour social cohesion and stability
will be put at risk – and this would cause another wave of problems
to emerge.”
