lpv:translated text	"Mr President, every year 650 000 people die from smoking-related causes in the EU. It is like a small-scale war. Of these, 80 000 deaths are due to passive smoking. Smoke has been found to contain 4 000 substances, of which 50 are carcinogens. Decades ago the medical community documented the adverse and possibly fatal consequences of smoking. It is our duty to try and reduce smoking and especially to prevent young people from starting. If we are to succeed, strong legislation is needed. Smoking in public places must be banned. Industrial additives in tobacco have to be monitored, researched and restricted. We need monitoring and rigour at sales points. We owe this to the 70% of EU citizens who do not smoke and to the overwhelming majority of smokers who want to give up."@en1
