"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, during the coming week, the Chinese Minister for Commerce, Chen Deming, will be holding official talks with Mr De Gucht in Brussels. In this respect, this debate is taking place at the right time and the Chinese will be paying considerable attention to the expectations and opinions of the European Parliament.
Ms de Sarnez, despite the constructive cooperation and the many individual points in your report which were correct and which I would like to thank you for, I cannot vote in favour of your report. Everyday life in businesses in Europe, the closure of traditional manufacturing plants, for example, in the textile industry and in the new industries of the future, such as the solar sector, the supply of raw materials to both these huge markets, the challenges involved in global trade and the complexity of current economic policy, in particular against the background of the financial, economic and structural crisis, the challenges of climate change and the current logic of production and growth all show that the report falls short of what we would like to see. We are taking too small a step, even if we perhaps do not need a new major leap forwards.
We cannot simply continue our trade and economic policy as before with China and with other so-called emerging markets. We must investigate our business relations, address the contradictions and problems openly and establish clear contractual terms. However, all of this can only take place in the context of developing a common, agreed strategy for cooperation in a genuinely globalised world economy. To achieve this, we need intelligent, forward-looking initiatives."@en1
