"Commissioner, thank you very much for your reply. In fact, I am in a position to verify what the Greek Presidency has said on the issue, but, given that the Commission will have to evaluate the project, I would like to warn you of the following: Firstly, that perhaps the way in which the Ulysses Project was implemented – a first phase in the Mediterranean and then another phase in the Atlantic – meant that during the Mediterranean phase immigration was diverted towards the Atlantic and during the Atlantic phase it was diverted towards the Mediterranean, and therefore in practice the effect was minimal. It would appear, furthermore, that, at least in the first part, there were understanding problems between the different operations. We are now talking about a second project, the Neptune Project, for the central and eastern Mediterranean – I imagine the Commissioner will be up—to-date with this issue – and the question I would put is whether, as a consequence of this second project, by focussing on one area – the central and eastern Mediterranean – there will be a danger of increasing the pressure on the western Mediterranean and the Atlantic. In other words, to what extent the second project can produce that result because it appears that the total flow is always the same: if one side is closed off, immigration is diverted towards the other."@en1
