"I voted in favour of the adoption of Mr Saryusz-Wolski's report on a common European foreign policy on energy.
Pursuant to the action plan on energy policy adopted by the Council in March 2007, we must make every effort to develop a common European foreign policy on energy for the European Union, equipped with the instruments required to ensure its effective operation. I would like to draw attention to the need for solidarity and cooperation between Member States, the diversification of energy sources and ongoing development and better cooperation in this area.
I agree it is necessary to decide on a detailed road map, laying down the various stage of the introduction of such a policy. The Commission should present its proposals in this regard at the earliest opportunity. It is also important for the Member States to consult amongst themselves and with the European Commission on issues concerning strategic decisions on contracts with third parties in this area. The proposal to appoint a High Official on Foreign Energy Policy is very appropriate and deserves further consideration. This person would be responsible for coordinating all policies related to all external aspects of energy security. Such a post should help to enhance the protection of the interests of EU Member States during negotiations with foreign partners."@en1
