"Mr President, Mr Kallas, as competition increases in the years to come, we can expect the volume of traffic to increase even further. If we look at the figures again, it becomes clear that more than a quarter of our current CO
emissions are produced by transport. This means that we must reduce our CO
emissions and increase the efficiency of our transport systems. In my opinion, you have taken the right approach in your document. Your proposal for new guidelines is primarily about giving priority to environmentally friendly means of transport.
However, now we come to the ‘but’, Mr Kallas. This makes it all the more incomprehensible to me that you have seriously considered permitting cross-border transport on Europe’s roads using so-called monster trucks or gigaliners. I would be grateful if you could explain to us why you are considering this, without waiting for the analyses on road safety and the environment, and how you plan to proceed in future. You know that this is a very sensitive subject and that we are opposed to these trucks."@en1
