"The agreement negotiated by the European Commission with Georgia for the protection of geographical indications (GIs) of agricultural products and foodstuffs is the first bilateral agreement for the protection for GIs concluded between the EU and a partner from the European Neighbourhood. The agreement will enable a great many European products to be protected in Georgia, in exchange for the protection of a few Georgian products in the Member States. Accordingly, I cannot but approve of the text that has been negotiated, even though Georgia is not actually a problematic area in terms of the recognition of GIs in the agricultural and food sector. The areas that pose legislative and political obstacles to the progress of bilateral negotiations for the mutual protection and recognition of GIs are other ones entirely. This agreement ought therefore to be welcomed, but the hope is that this is only the first of a number of similar agreements to be negotiated, as soon as possible, with subjects that compete unfairly with European products on a serious and very substantial scale. My vote is in favour of Mr Moreira’s report."@en1
