"Mr President, in Geneva in December 2009, the EU concluded banana agreements with Latin American countries, significantly lowering tariffs.
Following these agreements, the EU established compensatory measures for ACP countries to the tune of EUR 190 million, if I am not mistaken. After 2009, new agreements were concluded between the EU and Central American countries, further lowering tariffs for those countries.
The accompanying measures that are anticipated in the amending budget do not take these new agreements into account. The ACP countries, however, have estimated the necessary accompanying measures at far more than EUR 190 million. In my view, the amended decision should take account of the ACP countries’ request.
As I, myself, am elected by a constituency that produces bananas, I will be paying special attention to this decision on the amending budget."@en1
