lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the Confederal Group of the European United Left – Nordic Green Left will not be voting for this report. It does admittedly contain some positive points, but they are constantly contradicted by the practices of certain Member States, including my own country. This report refuses to see that migration is primarily a South-South issue. The failure to recognise this means that tensions will simply increase and will plunge a number of those countries a little further into poverty. True, the European Union cannot accommodate all the destitute people in the world, but it is in no danger of having to do so; the figures are there to prove it, regardless of the fuss some people are making. The European Union cannot accommodate all the destitute people in the world, but it should make a contribution that is in proportion to its wealth, its needs and the damage that it has caused and that is still being caused today by some of its companies, which are plundering those countries’ resources. This report remains in the tradition of this inward-looking fortress Europe, in defiance of its own interests, particularly its demographic ones. No, the European Union has not learnt from the revolutions taking place in the Arab states. It is not showing solidarity. In the space of a few days, the Tunisians have accommodated more than 100 000 Libyan refugees in exemplary conditions. No, Commissioner, Europe’s talk is no match for the problems facing the world. It will only fuel the xenophobic policies of certain Member States, and I regret that."@en1
