"Shipping and the shipbuilding industry contribute significantly to the economic prosperity of EU countries and provide valuable services to European and global industry, as well as consumers.
I congratulate Mrs Meissner on her report. I wish to stress the importance of a maritime space without barriers. At the same time, we call on the Commission and Member States to evaluate and preserve small maritime ports, expand the short sea shipping network in order to minimise land transport distances, support research and innovation on cargo modes, cargo handling and logistical solutions with the aim of finding solutions which reduce transport time and handling costs, and to support port infrastructure development and ensure intermodality.
With an emphasis on the Black Sea’s geostrategic importance, the European Council should ask the European Commission to draw up a European Union Black Sea strategy. Unfortunately, too little attention has been devoted until now to the Black Sea, which is of geostrategic significance to the European Union."@en1
