Europeos unidos en la diversidad
La Unión europea (UE) es una familia de países europeos democráticos, que se han comprometido a trabajar juntos en aras de la paz y la prosperidad. No se trata de un Estado destinado a sustituir a los actuales Estados, pero es más que cualquier otra organización internacional. En realidad, la UE es única. Sus Estados miembros han creado instituciones comunes en las que delegan parte de su soberanía, con el fin de que se puedan tomar democráticamente decisiones sobre asuntos específicos de interés común, a escala europea.
Croatian:
Građani Europske unije ujedinjeni u različitosti
Europska unija (EU) zajednica je europskih demokratskih država koje zajedničkim naporima teže uspostavi mira i blagostanja. Ona nije nastala s namjerom da se zamijene postojeće države, već predstavlja tvorevinu koja nadilazi okvire još jedne međunarodne organizacije. Europska unija zapravo je jedinstvena. Njezine su zemlje članice uspostavile zajedničke institucije na koje su prenijele dio suvereniteta kako bi se odluke o određenim pitanjima od zajedničkog interesa mogle demokratski donositi na europskoj razini.
L’Unione europea (UE) è una famiglia di paesi europei democratici che si sono impegnati a lavorare insieme per la pace e la prosperità. Non è uno Stato che si propone di sostituire gli Stati esistenti, ma è qualcosa di più rispetto alle altre organizzazioni internazionali. L’UE è infatti qualcosa di unico. I suoi Stati membri hanno creato una serie di istituzioni comuni a cui delegano una parte della loro sovranità in modo che le decisioni su questioni specifiche di interesse comune possano essere prese democraticamente a livello europeo.
Holland:
De Europeanen: eenheid in verscheidenheid
De Europese Unie (EU) is een familie van democratische Europese landen die gezamenlijk aan vrede en welvaart willen werken. De Europese Unie is geen nieuwe staat die in de plaats komt van de bestaande staten, maar verschilt wel van alle andere internationale organisaties. Meer nog, de Europese Unie is uniek. De lidstaten van de EU hebben gemeenschappelijke instellingen opgericht waaraan zij een deel van hun soevereiniteit overdragen, zodat er op Europees niveau democratische beslissingen over specifieke vraagstukken van gemeenschappelijk belang kunnen worden genomen.
Finnish:
Eurooppalaiset yhdessä mutta yksilöinä
Euroopan unioni (EU) koostuu demokraattisista valtioista, jotka ovat sitoutuneet työskentelemään yhdessä rauhan ja hyvinvoinnin saavuttamiseksi. Se ei ole valtio, jonka olisi tarkoitus korvata nykyiset valtiot, mutta se on kuitenkin enemmän kuin kansainvälinen järjestö. Itse asiassa EU on ainutlaatuinen organisaatio. Sen jäsenvaltiot ovat perustaneet yhteisiä toimielimiä, joille ne ovat siirtäneet tiettyjä toimivaltuuksia, jotta Euroopan kannalta merkittävistä asioista olisi mahdollista tehdä demokraattisia päätöksiä Euroopan tasolla.
Lithuanian:
Susivieniję ir įvairovę išlaikantys europiečiai
Europos Sąjunga (ES) yra demokratinių Europos valstybių šeima, pasiryžusi taikos ir gerovės labui veikti išvien. Ji nėra nauja valstybė, pakeisianti esamas valstybes. ES daug kuo skiriasi ir nuo kitų tarptautinių organizacijų. Iš tikrųjų ji yra unikali organizacija. Jos valstybės narės yra įsteigusios bendras institucijas, kurioms perduoda dalį savo suvereniteto, kad tam tikri visoms rūpimi klausimai būtų demokratiškai sprendžiami Europos lygmeniu.
German:
Die Europäer: in Vielfalt vereint
Die Europäische Union (EU) ist ein Zusammenschluss demokratischer europäischer Länder, die sich der Wahrung des Friedens und dem Streben nach Wohlstand verschrieben haben. Sie versteht sich nicht als ein neuer Staat, der an die Stelle bestehender Staaten tritt. Allerdings ist die Europäische Union auch mehr als alle sonstigen internationalen Organisationen. Die EU ist im Wortsinne einzigartig. Die Mitgliedstaaten der EU haben gemeinsame Organe eingerichtet. Teile ihrer
einzelstaatlichen Souveränität haben sie diesen Organen übertragen, damit in bestimmten Angelegenheiten von gemeinsamem Interesse auf europäischer Ebene demokratische Entscheidungen getroffen werden können.
French:
Des Européens unis dans la diversité
L’Union européenne (UE) est une famille de pays démocratiques européens décidés à œuvrer ensemble à la paix et à la prospérité. Il ne s’agit pas d’un État destiné à se substituer aux États existants, mais l’Union européenne va plus loin que toute autre organisation internationale. En fait, c’est une organisation unique en son genre. Les États qui la composent ont mis en place des institutions communes auxquelles ils délèguent une partie de leur souveraineté, afin que les décisions sur des questions spécifiques d’intérêt commun puissent se prendre démocratiquement au niveau européen.
Englsih:
Europeans united in diversity
The European Union (EU) is a family of democratic European countries, committed to working together for peace and prosperity. It is not a State intended to replace existing states, but it is more than just another international organisation. The EU is, in fact, unique. Its Member States have set up common institutions to which they delegate some of their sovereignty so that decisions on specific matters of joint interest can be made democratically at European level.
Irish:
Eorpaigh aontaithe san éagsúlacht
Cuimsíonn an tAontas Eorpach (AE) grúpa de thíortha Eorpacha daonlathacha atá ag obair as lámha a chéile i dtreo na síochána agus an rathúnais. Ní Stát é a bheartaítear a chur in ionad na stát atá ann faoi láthair ach tá níos mó i gceist leis ná díreach eagraíocht idirnáisiúnta eile. Go deimhin níl a mhacasamhail le fáil. Tá comhinstitiúidí curtha ar bun ag a chuid Ballstát a ndéanann siad cuid dá gceannasacht a tharmligean chucu . Sa chaoi sin is féidir cinntí maidir le hábhair shonracha a bhfuil comhleas acu iontu a dhéanamh go daonlathach ag leibhéal Eorpach.
