lpv:translated text	"I abstained because, although the idea is an attractive one, many of the preconditions for an agreement of this nature have not been met. This type of agreement is simply tantamount to granting to transnational corporations the right to go to these countries to get their hands on major public contracts and natural resources, and to do this under conditions that are very advantageous to them, without ever concerning themselves about the future of the planet and its inhabitants. Colombia is a country of 5 million hectares of land which have been grabbed by the military forces, displacing 4 million peasants. Sixty per cent of all workers’ representatives assassinated in the world are killed in this country Our farmers are subject to very strict husbandry and production conditions. These cover traceability, working conditions for staff, hygiene regulations and quality controls. That obviously has a cost. An influx of cheaper products, offering very little in the way of quality guarantees and ethical safeguards, is likely to deregulate the market seriously and jeopardise the future of many farmers. Why advocate the profit of some and disregard cooperation to the benefit of all?"@en1
