In 2050, the EU will represent 5% of the world population rather than the present 8%. Particularly because of growth in China and in important emerging countries, the EU’s share in the global economy will decline from 20% to around 12% over the same period. This report tables a series of measures aimed at the European Union and its Member States retaining their geopolitical importance. I voted in favour and I would emphasise the need highlighted by the rapporteur to give greater stress to the regional contribution to European-level priorities like environmental protection, climate change, energy, transport infrastructure, etc.; to stimuli to growth and innovation, like integrating small and medium-sized companies into international networks, and so on; to model social projects, like integrated development, health, demographic planning, and so on; and, under all these headings, to compensatory measures for disadvantaged regions, which include the outermost regions, for reasons we all know. The creation of intermediate regions was essential for our country and for the outermost regions, and I fervently supported it."@en1
