Strasbourg: «political Hotel» created by France and Germany to bury the past ..!

Publié par Unknown à 06:26 0 commentaires

Everything looks as if the army occupied the headquarters is not just for him, and did not give him the hottest battles chance to pick up his breath, Fbeshr the conduct of its forces immediately from the new location.
And look rectangular iron boxes, rows of dark oil, just like those that transmit light gear and ammunition, dumped haphazardly, in the corridors and offices. But what is to afford the documents needed by about 750 parliamentarians Antgulwn with their luggage once a month, from the headquarters of the European Parliament in Brussels to its headquarters in Strasbourg.
Each time, the dozens of vehicles, very carefully, shipped almost two thousand boxes of this type, but not get any error in the order, because it will make them spend hours searching for lost funds, which is what happens frequently.
Opponents of this frequent clarion call irony «traveling circus.» In practice, the only proposal to him was that the European treaties acknowledged the existence of the European Parliament headquarters. Officially, the French city is the seat of the headquarters, but in practice not only to attend the House of Representatives to hold 12 plenary meetings per year, each lasting four days. All previous work and they are doing the following from their offices in Brussels.
And separating the two cities about 500 kilometers, it travels about five thousands person per month, between parliamentarians and their assistants and administrative staff in the various departments. Many of them Atovvon weary of this tradition, but there is a lack of them living this nomadic personal pleasure, they seem unbeatable for Parliamentary Swede Peter Ontgran. This requires knowledge of the secret, of course, return to the past.
Man's profession was, for many years, truck driver. It was the kind that goes on for days on the road, before much change his life, and ends up to be one of the 20 European parliamentarians elected by the Swedes.
Ontgran to sit behind the wheel of a red sports car, and stems immersed in the fun, as alleged in front of each of the unique asking him wanted his story: «Since I was a driver, I delight Permanent trucks to travel to Strasbourg. This for me relax summit, as if I am at home and I sit in my best sofa, in front of me and this TV », referring to the landscape that is expressed by the leadership as he continues.
But this experience hates the other parliamentarians. Last year voted overwhelmingly in favor of a resolution giving them the right to choose where they want to work it. This came after a lobbying campaign for months called one «Headquarters», Troyja of the need to cancel the Strasbourg headquarters. The most prominent argument that the city is not more than a hotel compulsory Station, and on top of that: expensive. Navigate to it with shipping costs up to about 200 million euros a year. It also considered the campaign to be contaminated trip, Travel of crowds leads to the emission of about 20 thousand tons of carbon dioxide.
But the abolition of Strasbourg headquarters is not a decision of the making of them, but needs to change in the European treaties, parliamentary groups working on several proposals to do so. But insurmountable political obstacle, the issue is in need of a European consensus, which is impossible under the French rejection does not compromise.
When I asked «ambassador» responsible in the European Parliament, who preferred not to be named, he said that «France is not the only rejection, Germany certainly supports the position, and you have to Luxembourg and Belgium.» The two countries fear that the latter two door opens Pandora's box, and the discussion turns to the objection to the distribution of the headquarters of the European institutions, especially they are hosting the most prominent. But for Germany, every story began with the agreement, France is installed on the city in a historic lesson icon.
Strasbourg has become a symbol of peace in Europe, and folding the era of wars between the two countries did not stop. City moved from one state to another, according to the victor in every war, and sometimes at each stage of them, they are the capital of the Alsace region border between them. Bells ringing the war, people carries their belongings and go, they are sure they inevitably Stsalhm. After the start of World War II residents were evacuated immediately, and remained empty for about year before that occupied by the Germans again. Strasbourg finally ended, with the German name on the occasion, in the bosom of the French state. A view of the headquarters of the parliament where Tmcn see the Rhine River, straddling the borders of Germany, where Tills armies during centuries.
Wars destroyed the power of the two countries, and understanding so imbedded city Mashup 'Transforms to host the headquarters of the European Parliament since 1952. year, but some years ago, and even now, is hosting the Council of Europe headquarters, which includes representatives from the countries of the continent, it is also, indulging in reincarnation Rmaziadtha, are network «RSS headquarters T »German - French joint.
During the parliamentary session Headquarters becomes a beehive, and ends when the empties, only necessary to keep him alive staff. In his spare time this term, could become a museum, and often European schools send their students on tours to him, to test the Democratic Weather and play his game in place absentee politicians.
Unusually, it blessed sunny and warm parliamentary session days this month. Imkn Fora discrimination protocol staff, the two sit smoking as if they were at the bottom of a huge vase, an arena is a circular building closed, designed to embrace the largest parliamentary grouping in the world. Albassan vests Hbehtan Maestro traditional robe, with gold chains hanging from pockets. «It is a matter of imposed but of luck», the young man says cheerfully and lightness, while veteran shaking his head in agreement.
