"Mr President, I would like to express my support for the Fisheries Partnership Agreement between the European Community and Gabon, as well as the other similar agreements with other ACP countries (Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific) and with certain other States.
These agreements are based on the principle of reciprocal cooperation and are in line with the partnership approach which is being applied to the external dimension of our common fisheries policy. By means of these agreements, we achieve a twin objective: firstly, we guarantee that the interests of the Union’s deep-sea fishing fleet are protected and, secondly, we improve the conditions with a view to achieving sustainable fisheries in the waters of the partner countries.
In this regard, I would like to end by stressing that the Union and our deep-sea fishing fleet, in contrast to others that operate illegally – has committed itself to ensuring that world fishing activities are sustainable and has accepted the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation’s Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries.
We must support this and other agreements, because they promote the development of our partner countries."@en1
