European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker is speaking in Strasbourg on Wednesday morning. This is his first State of the Union speech at the European Parliament that is set to report on his achievement and set out his vision. Much of the address is expected to focus on the refugee crisis.

During the address, Juncker is announcing new proposals for the redistribution of asylum seekers and he will present plans to relocate 160,000 people according to quotas.

– “I’m totally convinced we will have a fair deal with Britain.

– “International representation of the eurozone is essential, e.g. in IMF.”

– “EU is also common set of social policy values.”

– “In favour of a EU treasury in order to guarantee greater stability.”

– “Parliament should be more involved in the economic governance of Europe.”

– “We need to return to a situation of full employment, this is far from impossible. Of course, this will presuppose that we continue to consolidate our budgets, work on structural reform and invest.”

– “The crisis is of course not finished, there are over 17 million people in the Eurozone who are unemployed, and the economic recession will only be over once we have full employment in Europe.”

– “In spite of our fragility, weaknesses, self-perceived weaknesses, today it is Europe that presents a world-wide place of hope and haven of stability.”

– “60 million refugees after World War II in Europe.”
