"Mr President, as has already been said, the European Parliament adopted a resolution on 5 May 2010 by an overwhelming majority of 488 votes, banning the use of cyanide technologies in mining. We conveyed several messages to the Commission, requesting a legislative proposal which would specifically reflect the wish of European citizens, which is to protect the environment. Last week the Commission had the decency to tell us that ‘with regard to the introduction of a general ban on mining using cyanide technologies, the Commission considers that this is not justified on the grounds of actions linked to protecting the environment or health’. Commissioners, by defying the decision adopted by the European Parliament, you will automatically be accomplices in allowing the destruction of an entire region in Romania, which is not only an economic, cultural and social disaster but also an environmental one in a country of the European Union."@en1
