lpv:translated text	"Mr President, according to the provisions of the CMO in tobacco, from 2009 the resources that are now given as direct subsidies to growers from pillar 1 will be transferred to pillar 2, which deals with structural measures. In my country, Greece, tobacco is usually grown in semi-barren areas by poor farmers who have no other options. Therefore, if tobacco-growing is stopped in certain areas we will have social, economic and environmental problems. I have also observed that the aim is tobacco-growing rather than smoking. Thus if we put a stop to tobacco-growing at the same time as smoking, we should all be in agreement, and this is how things ought to be. This is not the case, however. The European cigarette industry will continue to produce cigarettes, but all the tobacco will simply be imported from third countries. We should therefore take the opportunity presented by the CAP review to try to remedy this wrong; we must show that the EU is a place of equality, justice and solidarity. This is why I ask for the present regime to be maintained after 2009 and for tobacco growers to continue..."@en1
