"Global climate change constitutes a major problem we believe there are good reasons for dealing with at international level. The Kyoto Protocol is an important step in this process. We do however take a critical view of quite a few of the wordings in the resolution.
We do not believe that the European Parliament should call upon those countries that have still not ratified the Kyoto Protocol to do so. We are of the view that individual countries should decide their positions on this protocol at national level.
We are also opposed to the Commission’s and the Member States’ having to emphasise the need for climate protection by engaging in dialogue with other countries. We believe that individual Member States should have the right to determine their national positions themselves and to put these forward in international negotiations. The national right of initiative would thus be protected."@en1
