lpv:translated text	"Mr President, once again, I wish to show my surprise at the fact that pressure and blackmailing by the Moroccan regime have had an impact on many of my fellow Members in this House. We were not asking our colleagues to vote in favour of or against a government or cause, but rather in favour of legal rigour and international law. The European Commission rushed to negotiate an extension to the Fisheries Partnership Agreement between the European Community and the Kingdom of Morocco without consulting the European Parliament, although the Treaty of Lisbon required consultation. In practice, the current agreement permits the EU fleet to fish in waters of the Western Sahara, which, according to the United Nations, is autonomous territory. Many people consider this to be illegal. Furthermore, various legal opinions, including some issued by the legal services of this House, serve, at least, to endorse this legal uncertainty. Therefore, it was our understanding that it was necessary to raise this matter with the Court of Justice in order to obtain its opinion and that this should help us to take the right decision in relation to a subject that has important political consequences, but also economic, ecological and social repercussions. Accordingly, I regret the fact that the majority of our fellow Members have not understood the issue in this way and that, with their negative vote, they are contributing to dragging out a politically unsustainable and legally unacceptable situation."@en1
