"Mr President, we welcome the report, which underlines that it is important for the EU to focus on a trade policy that does not seek to simply open up European markets, but that is capable of laying down fair and shared rules, based on the principle of reciprocity.
The EU is continuing to negotiate with countries such as China, already a market economy, without taking into account problems such as the lack of fairness for European businesses in public procurement, imbalances in the protection of intellectual property rights, the lack of guarantees in the procurement of rare earth element raw materials, and the lack of export controls on counterfeit goods. It is no coincidence that the increase in counterfeit goods exports is paralleled by the increase in Chinese exports.
The EU must provide, with the appropriate trade measures, an investment policy that will help our manufacturing industry, in danger of disappearing owing to Europe’s inability to defend our economic model. This is why I, together with Mr Susta, Mr Rinaldi, Mr Daul and Mr Guerrero, tabled written declaration 0016/2012 to make the Commission and the Council reflect on the importance of having an appropriate trade policy for EU development which safeguards employment and defends citizens’ interests."@en1
