lpv:translated text	"We recognise and acknowledge the importance of multilateral cooperation for the promotion of the proper conservation and management of marine biological resources – the subject of this agreement. However, the proposal for a regulation that was approved contains a provision that we consider to be unacceptable and which we sought to amend, proposing the removal of a paragraph from Article 28. This having been rejected by the majority, we voted against the final proposal for a regulation. It aims to confer on the Commission the power to adopt delegated acts that could affect an area forming part of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of a Member State. The area is known as Eratosthenes Seamount and is part of the EEZ of the Republic of Cyprus. This possibility clashes with the sovereignty of the Republic of Cyprus, particularly as this is an area that is highly sensitive from a political point of view, given that the area in question is disputed, illegally, by a third country that is a candidate for EU membership. The seabed in this area contains natural resources that the Republic of Cyprus has a legitimate right to exploit, in line with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. In this context, the EU’s remit should not go beyond questions relating to the common fisheries policy."@en1
