lpv:translated text	"In Leeuwarden, Friesland, a strike is underway involving 30 workers of the company Atoglas who are protesting against the plan by its French parent company, Total Fina Elf, to close it down. Atoglas is a successful and innovative company, for which independent experts have predicted a profitable future. The works council is completely behind this statement and wants to avoid closure, but the French management want to close the company down all the same. It is beyond me that Total Fina Elf should remain deaf to the works council’s arguments. Total Fina presents itself as a socially responsible enterprise. The least it should do is to listen to what the works council has to say. It is also beyond me that Total Fina should remain blind to the innovation that is taking place in Friesland, and, as the European Constitution specifically states that regional coherence and solidarity between the Member States is a common goal, we can also expect French companies to have an eye for regional development in the Netherlands. The strikers in Friesland are making an appeal to this European goal and to Total Fina to keep Atoglas open. I would urge my fellow MEPs to support the strikers in Friesland."@en1
