lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, I think that we agree on the findings; we have debated them numerous times in our committee, the subject has now been exhausted and we agree on the conclusions. The European audiovisual sector is highly fragmented. European cinema productions are being made within the framework of one state, resulting of course in a cultural and linguistic diversity in cinema productions. Nonetheless, the immense wealth in terms of the linguistic and cultural diversity of Europe is, at the same time, the cause of the greatest structural problem on the audiovisual markets in Europe. It is because of this situation and numerous other reasons that transatlantic productions, as everyone has said, have a 70% and hence a dominant position on the European market, while the balance of trade deficit of the European Union to the United States totals USD eight billion. However, the problem is not one of numbers. It is primarily cultural. For example, has European culture been disseminated to Asia or Africa through the cinema over the last 20 years? Of course not."@en1
