And secondly this meeting between EU and US is a symbol of how we are fulfilling the real dream of the Marshall plan. And I think we are making a lot of progress. I expect a new set of initiatives to meet the demand of this time that has an equal impact. That is one thing we did yesterday between Nato and Russia.";
