"Thank you for a strong social agenda – you have our full support on that. I have two questions. The first concerns the Copenhagen Summit. It was a failure and the question now is how can we regain the initiative as regards the fight against climate change? Can Spain pave the way for a binding climate agreement in Mexico in which we do not increase the gap between the poor countries of the world and the richer countries of the world? Is it possible, for example, to attempt to secure financing of climate initiatives that does not take funds from regular EU aid for fighting poverty? That would be an important matter for the Spanish Presidency to address.
As far as the social pact is concerned, it sounds very interesting. However, there is a serious problem: there is no longer a reasonable balance between Europe’s employees and Europe’s employers. We have a Posting of Workers Directive that has upset that balance and which puts such a social pact at risk. There is too much wage dumping and too much crude exploitation."@en1
