lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I am speaking on behalf of the new Italian Socialist Party. Current international political events and also economic factors, including the constant increase in the price of oil, are forcing the European Union to sit up and take notice of a situation that is both obvious and familiar: we have a structural energy supply problem and an increasing level of dependence. World demand for energy is rising, global resources are not limitless and, in any case, our Union does not have enough to meet its own needs. Recent events have shown how the energy supplies on which our economy is currently based can be put in jeopardy, and that is a risk that we absolutely must not take. It is essential to promote a closer international synergy, including through signed agreements such as the European Energy Charter, which creates a cooperation framework between Europe, Russia and Mediterranean countries. Energy cooperation with third countries is, in fact, a core element in the European supply strategy and helps to consolidate stable international political relations. Within this framework, clear, well-defined, concrete, lasting agreements must now be made, particularly with Russia. It is now urgent, therefore, for Member States to put into practice the recent recommendations on implementing energy saving measures, which will require a serious commitment on the part of the EU institutions, the Member States and every individual citizen. Furthermore, we must at last hold that complex and comprehensive debate on choosing technologies for the future and on the production and use of alternative and renewable energies. Despite the various crises, some of them recent, that have marked Europe’s economy over the last 40 years, this debate has, unfortunately, not yet been held. This is a delay, a failing and a gap that we must try to make up for as quickly and as urgently as possible."@en1
