"Mr President, we have just had a debate in this Chamber on the common agricultural policy, where we reiterated the importance of supporting a European model, unique in the world. However, at the same time the Commission has decided, without any prior public debate, to reopen negotiations with Mercosur, the consequences of which risk being disastrous for our agriculture and, in particular, for our European livestock farming, which is already struggling. Beef imports will increase by 70%, poultry imports by 25%. They will flood into Europe at a lower cost because they are not produced in accordance with the same level of health, environmental and social requirements. Commissioner, I would therefore like to voice my concern to you. Our agriculture is in great difficulty. Destabilising it further will have serious consequences. We cannot develop European trade policy without taking account of and defending one of our main assets. The Commission must hear this message and this demand."@en1
