lpv:translated text	". Mr President, we are today discussing Mr Catania’s controversial report on the European anti-drug strategy, central to which is the fight against drugs rather than the promotion of them. Judging by the title of the report, we seem to be in agreement on this. There is no place for drugs in a healthy society. If we in the European Union are serious about tackling the drug trade, we will need to impose sanctions. We can no longer tolerate the people who ruin lives by making money from addicts. However, we might well have a running battle on our hands if, contrariwise, we did not do everything in our power to fight drug use. In addition to taking preventive measures, it must still be possible to penalise the use of drugs. On behalf of my group, I have therefore tabled two amendments enabling the continued application of sanctions in respect of drug offences, alongside preventive measures. I urge you to support those amendments. This, of course, does not make it a good report. I have to get it off my chest: the report is full of ideology, despite the fact that it claims the opposite. I will leave it here. Thank you for the opportunity of speaking my mind."@en1
