"New technologies and development in space are the future and a gamble to be taken so as not to remain shut out of a profitable sector with strong international political value. That is why I decided to vote in favour of the European space strategy, including the Galileo and Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) projects. The Galileo programme provides a satellite navigation system designed for civilian use, for logistics and road safety for transport: essential actions to guarantee the EU’s independence in a strategically important sector. The GMES programme plays a vital role in observation of the Earth, supporting the green economy and long-term investments in technology and infrastructure. It also represents a basis for environmental safety, climate monitoring, emergency management, disaster prevention and many other aspects. It is important to guarantee continuous, long-term funding for these projects. Investments and projects in the space sector have a great impact on many areas such as defence and security, international cooperation, research and development, and the economy. The European space industry has a consolidated turnover of EUR 5.4 billion. With greater investments made by non-EU states, even greater benefits could be achieved."@en1
