lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, we are talking about this project as if this is the first time in the world an underwater pipeline is being built. There are dozens of pipelines crossing our seas, with no problems whatsoever. We have the technology today to bring gas, to bring energy, to areas that need it, and millions of German citizens need this gas and they need it urgently. We must be honest enough to realise that the purpose of this report is not to stop gas coming into Germany or into the EU, but to stop it from crossing the Baltic Sea and to get it overland. It is stated clearly in paragraph 25 that it is possible to transport it overland, so it can pass through Poland purely for political and economic reasons. We must be honest enough to admit it. It is unethical to use environmental concerns in order to achieve political objectives and, for that reason, I will vote against it."@en1
