The report deals with the Commission’s proposal to build a Global Climate Change Alliance. Unfortunately, the basic intentions of the report have been peppered with statements that the June List is unable to support, including the call to link the European Union’s environmental commitment with a Common Foreign and Security Policy and detailed proposals of how the EU should initiate environmental investments in third countries.
Based on some of the statements contained in the report, the Global Climate Change Alliance could also be viewed as an attempt by the EU to extend its powers in connection with forestry and marine issues. This method of using issues to build the EU State is something we are most strongly opposed to.
The June List is very much in favour of EU cooperation encompassing cross-border environmental problems. However, fighting poverty and initiating efforts to tackle environmental problems at a global level should be carried out within the framework of the UN. After careful consideration, the June List has therefore chosen to vote against the report."@en1
