Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, One week before the delegation from the European Parliament leaves for Poznań, it should be assessed whether what the Commission now keeps repeating is really true, namely that the reaction to the crisis of the real economy and to the crisis in the financial markets is linked to an ambitious climate protection strategy. Once again I maintain at this point that everything which the Commission has said to date in this regard is disproved in the current negotiations of the trialogue on the climate package. The signal given by the car deal at the beginning of the week is: Europe has indeed promised ambitious climate protection and to save the world. Europe wants to change everything, but not its cars. I think that we have given an extremely poor signal.
Let us continue with emissions trading. We know that emissions trading is the most important instrument of European climate protection policy, that bidding is the be-all and end-all of operation. Now an exception is even to be negotiated for the energy industry and energy-intensive industry is to be excluded for almost the whole of the next decade. I think that is a very poor announcement, only one week before we go to Poznań. At least half of the ambitious efforts to reduce CO
should be made in developing countries, not in Europe itself. However, we do not want to fund these measures in developing countries either.
Mr Barroso, I should like to earnestly request that you at last formulate the new green deal about which Mr Dimas always also speaks so much. I should also like to say to you that I believe that acceptance by the citizens of the European Union would be much greater and would increase if mistakes which were made in the old economic strategies of the European Commission, mistakes with regard to the financial markets as well, were to be assessed, if you were to acknowledge your incorrect estimates of a year ago.
Then perhaps people would believe the new start, then greater approval for the Treaty of Lisbon could be counted on as well. At this point, as I did two weeks ago in Strasbourg, I would really beg you to be honest in the matter. Is there a new green deal or do you indeed wish to pursue the strategies of the last decade?"@en1
