  • Gemeinsame Erklärung Der Initiative Magistrale Für Europa Und
    Joint Statement by Delegates of the European Parliament and the Association „Magistrale für Europa“ Concerning the Rapid Realisation of the Continuous High-Speed Rail Line „Magistrale für Europa“ Paris - Nancy - Strasbourg - Karlsruhe - Stuttgart - Ulm - Augsburg - Munich - Salzburg - St. Pölten - Vienna - Budapest Strasbourg, January 15, 2003 2 The rail line „Magistrale für Europa“ running from Paris via Strasbourg, Stuttgart, Munich, Salzburg and Vienna to Budapest is the central east-west axis in the heart of Europe. It forms the backbone for a pan-European rail network linking cities and regions that are home to a total of 34 million people, including 16 million employed persons, in France, Germany, Austria and Hungary. The conversion of the „Magistrale für Europa“ into a continuous high-speed line is one of the prerequisites for the rapid economic, political and cultural integration of Eastern and Western Europe. A scientific report commissioned by the association „Magistrale für Europa“ and cofinanced by the European Union has confirmed the manifold benefits that a rapid upgrading of the line would bring in terms of integration, stimulation of the economy and locational advantages. In October 2001 the Commission of the European Union emphasized the Pan-European importance of the „Magistrale für Europa“ by suggesting to include the entire line from Paris to Vienna in the list of priority projects of the Transeuropean Networks. In view of the forthcoming EU extension, it would be quite reasonable to continue its upgrading to Budapest and beyond. To ensure the rapid conversion of the „Magistrale für Europa“ into a continuous high- speed rail connection from Paris to Budapest via Strasbourg, Karlsruhe, Stuttgart, Munich and Vienna, we call upon 1.
