lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Treaty of Lisbon enshrines the objective of the European Union’s territorial cohesion. Like the economic and social dimension of regional policy, the effectiveness of this dimension is dependent on the drawing up of renewed strategies for the European regions. For it to be successful, the reality of the regions, their specific characteristics and their particular problems need to be taken into account. The Atlantic region is one that presents a number of key characteristics which mean it requires an ambitious strategy to be prepared. To begin with, it is a remote area that includes regions with worrying problems of accessibility and connectivity. It has a fragile environment which is increasingly weakened by climate change. Its shipping activity is dynamic, as a result of the importance of maritime transport, but also as a result of activities relating to fishing and energy. I would remind you that it is thanks to the Atlantic region, and specifically the outermost regions located there, that the European Union has the largest exclusive economic zone in the world. The creation of an integrated strategy for the Atlantic region should be supported, provided that it takes into account not just the important maritime dimension, but also the land-based dimension. Synergies must be created and fostered between the various sectoral policies, so seeking to achieve benefits for the region The strategy must, obviously, cover all the regions of the Atlantic coast, including the outermost regions of Macaronesia: that is, Madeira, the Azores and the Canary Islands. It is necessary to improve the connectivity of these regions, whose specific geographic and structural characteristics require the optimisation of accessibility and mobility. This would not only contribute to making these regions more dynamic and to their growth, but also to the better achievement of internal market objectives. I should also like to stress quickly the need for multi-level governance within this strategy, in which it is desirable to call on the regional and local authorities to be involved, from the stage of analysing the regional situation to that of implementing specific measures."@en1
