lpv:translated text	"Mr President, everyone knows that Jean Monnet was one of the founding fathers of the EU. He used to tell a joke about the Norwegians. The joke was that the Norwegians always talk about fish. It is a bad joke. It is as bad as Jean Monnet’s idea regarding how the European Union should develop. According to him, the EU should always have a management group, by which he probably meant Germany and France. It would have meant there would not have been democratic equality among the countries in the EU. But let me turn now to the question of fish. I would defend Norway, which is not a member of the EU, because the EU wants to bring Norway’s resources of fish under the auspices of the Community without giving it anything in their place other than Jean Monnet’s political management group. I would also defend Morocco against the fishermen plunderers of the EU countries. The world’s seas are now being emptied of its fish protein in a way that resembles plundering. We must protect the world’s fish stocks. We have to resolve the overcapacity situation in the EU fisheries industry. Let people fish with EU money in EU waters only!"@en1
