"Mr President, I would like to say a few words about the Commission’s proposal on sustainable development. It is clear that it could have gone a lot further in many areas, but even so I must say that it was tougher than expected and that it contains several proposals which, if carried out, will really make a difference compared with today’s policy on the environment. Above all, I would like to highlight the requirements to limit road transport, reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, remove harmful subsidies, change procurement regulations in favour of the environment and adapt the common agricultural policy. If this is carried out, it will prove an important step in achieving change. The question now is whether these concrete proposals will survive the European Council in Gothenburg. I hope that they will, and that these proposals are not removed from the final document, but remain. Perhaps the general comments could be shortened instead. I believe it can make a real contribution to changing this policy. I wish the Swedish Presidency luck with this. However, the proposal is inadequate in one area, that of international cooperation and links with the World Trade Organisation and environmental regulations."@en1
