lpv:translated text	"Exactly eight months ago, this House sent a very clear message to the Commission: the adoption of a wholly tariff-based system after a transitional period of six years would inevitably condemn banana producers within the Community and those from the ACP to bankruptcy and misery. Unfortunately, the Commission’s declared obsession with finding a system that is both viable and compatible with the all-powerful WTO has won the day over any other consideration. Let me make this quite clear: I am aware of the importance of this body, but what I, like others, refuse to accept is globalisation! This is a form of globalisation for the richest few and for them alone. This is a form of globalisation that scorns the most basic human rights. In short, this is a form of globalisation unfettered by any democratic regulation. With regard to the banana dossier, I must once again mention the unhappiness of our small producers in Guadeloupe, Martinique and the Canaries, who feel swindled, abandoned and sacrificed at the altar of a macroeconomic rationale that they do not understand. The Commission’s proposal is unacceptable in its current state, as it constitutes an unconditional capitulation to the dictates of the U.S! This capitulation is unworthy of this European project of ours and of the social and environmental model that we claim we want to construct. That is why I voted in favour of the report by Mr Dary, who, by opposing this capitulation, does an honour to our Parliament."@en1
