"Mr President, six years ago the pollution of the River Tisza with cyanide, which was caused by gold mining in Baia Mare, Romania, showed us the dangers of gold mining at the heart of Europe. Hungary was not a member of the European Union at that time, but the whole European Union showed solidarity with us, the victims of the river pollution. The European Union has recently adopted a directive on mining waste that will stop all mining activity that is dangerous to nature. We were more than satisfied when the Romanian Government, even before its membership of the European Union, showed its readiness to accept this directive. However, according to the latest worrying news in some political and business circles, the idea is once more emerging of opening up a new gold mine with cyanide technology in Romania. Let us give a strong and definitive ‘no’ to such dangers and ventures. Let us ask the Romanian Government to keep to its commitments."@en1
