"We are voting in favour of the overall report on a stronger partnership for the outermost regions.
We are doing so because we recognise the special situation faced by the outermost regions, and we accept their need for Community support.
We have, however, been obliged to vote against some parts of the report. We have done this mainly because we do not think that the outermost regions should have special status and, thus, receive support that runs fundamentally counter to the Community’s other policies and values. We voted against proposals that defend an outdated agricultural and fisheries policy which benefits neither the Community’s interests as a whole nor the long-term interests of the outermost regions. Protectionism, tariffs and trade barriers are not lasting solutions. Support for the outermost regions must be based on sustainable development."@en1
