Extract from press conference in London featuring European Commission President, Jacques Delors in which he says he does not want to be the tsar of Europe. He was speaking at the start of the six-month British presidency of the European Community. Delors has been the object of ridicule in some British tabloid newspapers which have run headlines such as, Up Yours Delors. He says he knows he is unpopular with some sections of the press but insists he is unconcerned.
