"This report is essentially focused on the defence of free trade, which is in line with the dominant positions in Parliament, uniting the right and the social democrats. However, we reject it. We are looking at yet another defence of the unbridled liberalisation and deregulation of international trade, which does not take account of the different levels of development in different countries, nor the right of each country to produce in a sustainable way. Despite the recognition that among the so-called barriers to trade there are practices, regulations and procedures that are justified on the basic grounds of public interest, they are seeking to restrict these barriers as much as possible, upholding a restrictive view of the public interest. Although they recognise that among the so-called barriers to trade, there are practices, regulations and procedures that are justified on the basic grounds of public interest, they are seeking to restrict these barriers as much as possible, upholding a restrictive view of the public interest. They want to force various countries to lift their non-tariff barriers in the name of the free movement of products from the EU, to combat favouritism towards national companies. The liberalisation of world trade has disastrous consequences for many sectors of economic activity. As we know, this causes the destruction of productive capacity and jobs, affects the capacity to create and distribute wealth, increases the dependence on foreign markets and results in chronic and growing imbalances in trade. In short, it leads to economic and social breakdown."@en1
