"Mr President, I should like to call upon the European Commission to act on an issue which has given rise to concern among the citizens of Poland and of the other new EU Member States for the past few months, namely the suspension of food exports to Russia. Poland and the nine other new Member States were informed of the change in the rules on exports to Russia at the end of April of this year. Russia’s decision was therefore directly linked to our accession to the European Union. There is no rhyme or reason to the checks carried out by Russian inspectors. Producers from the old Member States are aware of this. The European Commission must open negotiations with Moscow on this issue, and every effort should be made jointly to specify the criteria for checks so that they become easier to understand. If the European Commission fails to provide assistance or adopts a neutral position on this issue, it will amount to discrimination against the new Member States in the EU’s internal relations. I would therefore like to call upon the European Commission to maintain solidarity within the EU in internal relations, and to provide assistance to the new Member States on this issue."@en1
