"I voted in favour of this resolution because it brings to light a fundamental problem that should never be underestimated. More and more countries are turning to nuclear power, both for civilian and, unfortunately, military purposes. This is now a reality of global significance which, unfortunately, also involves areas of extreme political instability. In the event of a crisis or accident, the European Union cannot allow itself to be unprepared to manage the emergency. Responses must be immediate, effective and perfectly coordinated between the various Member States. The radioactive fallout following such an event then leads to contamination of foodstuffs and feedingstuffs that, if introduced to the food chain, can cause incalculable damage and contaminate entire areas for decades. European citizens must be able to sleep easily, safe in the knowledge that in the event of an emergency that all of us hope never to have to face, they will not be left at the mercy of events. Streamlined procedures with clear rules and responsibilities for all are essential to serve the true interests of citizens."@en1
