"Mr President, I believe it is important for us to discuss this problem and all its aspects, which number at least three, in the European Parliament today. The first point is assistance for the affected farmers, who are undoubtedly in need, as my colleagues have pointed out: sheep farming, which has a very low profitability and which is extremely important for maintaining the environment in some regions, is naturally hardest hit. However, I would once again request that the principle of subsidiarity should be observed and that the matters that can be clarified at local level should be effectively clarified there. I am naturally much more concerned by the indirect negative impact. This brings me to my second point, namely the safety of consumers. Naturally, we also need an intensive awareness campaign for consumers. After all decisions are made at the meat counter on the basis of what we want to eat, not scientific findings. So, then, is this virus harmful to humans or not? The third point is the avoidance of disproportionate international trade sanctions and, with this in mind, I would again ask the researchers to coordinate analysis and information programmes on a Europe-wide basis."@en1
