"I followed the opinion and arguments of the rapporteur, Vital Moreira, and voted against this agreement. My grievances are not with the Israeli citizens, but with the decisions of their government. The Agreement on Conformity Assessment and Acceptance of Industrial Products (ACAA) is not simply a technical agreement: it is a strengthening of EU/Israel relations. Giving our consent to the ACAA means accepting and encouraging the illegal settlement of the Palestinian territories.
In addition, some passages remain quite obscure. That is why, rather than voting for or against the agreement, I was one of those who wanted it referred back to the committee so that a number of questions could be addressed. This agreement is ultimately a defeat for all parties. By acting in haste, we have ended up with a badly constructed agreement, which, moreover, is detrimental to values that I consider to be fundamental."@en1
