"Ladies and gentlemen, those of us who believe in the European Union and in the existence of a common European maritime and terrestrial territory can neither accept nor approve the type of discrimination and favouritism that appear in this Fisheries agreement with Greenland. We cannot understand why the fleets of Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Denmark should be given favourable treatment, particularly since they cannot even reach the level of catches allowed under the previous protocol and since they have not taken advantage of the opportunity to create joint, mutually beneficial companies. We cannot accept the discrimination against the fleets of other Member States such as the Spanish and Portuguese fleets – and within the Spanish fleet, the Galician fleet – that want to fish in Greenland’s waters and which are in a position to make business agreements with local agents, as allowed under the agreement. What we want, and it should not be necessary to have to say this once again, is sustainable development and the preservation of fish stocks. Lastly, we also want the European Union to maintain a real presence in Community waters as it does in the markets."@en1
