"I voted against the joint resolution because of the rejection by the House of two key amendments presented by the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament on the development of medium- to long-term strategies for the progressive phasing-out of nuclear power and the definition of binding renewable energy targets.
The vote against the entire resolution by the House highlights the fact that the nuclear issue is no longer just one of greater safety. It is now vital that we begin to think seriously about the energy issue and about investment in renewable energies. Japan’s tragic experience has shown us just how necessary it is to discuss nuclear power in depth. In this sense, the European Parliament’s vote is the first step towards a change of direction in energy policy choices on both a European and an international scale."@en1
