Schlagwort: lie

Jean-Claude Juncker, the new President of the European Commission, on April 20, 2011 during an event in Brussels:

»When it becomes serious, you have to lie.«


And he is convinced that citizens do not have the right to know everything:

»I’m ready to be insulted as being insufficiently democratic, but I want to be serious […] I am for secret, dark debates.«
