lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in my comments on the implementation of the Lisbon Strategy, I would like to stress one of four priorities – the energy. It is especially in this field, with minimal competitiveness in market and network services, that the EU still lags behind. The Baltic countries are still isolated from an energy standpoint – both in terms of electricity and especially natural gas. The North European Gas Pipeline, which is being constructed as a result of an agreement by just two countries – Germany and Russia, will not solve the natural gas marketing and distribution network problems. The Russian President’s speech in Munich showed that an imperial mindset is resurgent in Russia, and it appears that the intention remains unchanged – to continue to use energy policy for political purposes. A common EU energy market would be a security guarantee in relation to third countries, and it would help to solve energy crises which can arise within the EU or can be provoked from outside the EU. In negotiations with Russia it is essential to have safeguards in place to protect against attempted monopolistic dictates from third parties. In order for us all to feel safer, I invite the Council and the Commission to promptly initiate an independent expert assessment of the likely effects of the North European Gas Pipeline. The Baltic Sea does not belong to just two countries but the whole of the Union."@en1
