". Like my colleagues, the Belgian Socialists, I abstained during the final vote on the resolution on the floods in Europe for two reasons. First of all, solidarity can have no borders. As Mrs Zrihen said, in the open sitting, the European Parliament is wrongly trying to compile a list of Member States whose regions have suffered torrential flooding. Italy had to be added, as it did not appear in the current list, and the final text does not mention, in particular, the floods in Switzerland. Secondly, if we want to better protect the territory of the Union against floods – and this is undoubtedly the desire of the European Parliament – we must take into account river basins, which ignore borders mapped out by history. It is regrettable that, in our haste, we did not include this essential clarification in the text."@en1
