"Mr President, Commissioner, I wonder who wants this directive? There is not a single port agency which is served by or which accepts this directive; all it serves is globalisation and the new order, which you are indeed monitoring and you are indeed following, by which I mean dumbing down. It flies in the face of logic and it flies in the face of Convention 137 of the International Dockworkers Council, which clearly states that priority must be given to skilled dockworkers. What are you trying to do? Are you going to put cartels in the ports? We in Greece have three-quarters of all the islands in Europe; in other words, we have most of the ports in Europe. We know how they operate. There is a positive modus operandi. We could have quicker results, but with people we know, people with experience. Are we going to put in unskilled workers to give us better results? So why are you flying in the face of logic, democracy and the workers' interests? We do not ultimately want an arbitrary Europe; we want a Europe of the peoples."@en1
