"The report supports raw materials diplomacy through the European External Action Service (EEAS) to ensure Europe’s industry can maintain access to vital raw materials such as those used in the hi-tech sector. A strong focus is also placed on reducing our reliance on imports by stepping up exploration and production within the EU (including research into better clean technologies) where possible. It also calls for recycling and re-use and a gradual ban on waste landfill, while at the same time advocating reopening old landfill sites to extract valuable scrap metal and raw materials.
The EU’s raw materials strategy must be efficient and fair, respecting the right of developing countries to benefit from their natural resources. It is also an opportunity for the EU to boost its internal industry, recycle more and be more efficient. The report adopted also makes clear that trade and development policies should go hand in hand and old colonialist approaches are unacceptable; agreements with third countries and the EU should include clauses on human rights, labour standards and corporate and social responsibility."@en1
