I voted in favour of the report on the conclusion of the Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of Moldova on the protection of geographical indications of agricultural products and foodstuffs because I believe that both are aiming at the mutual protection of geographical indications (GIs) in order to improve the conditions of bilateral trade, promote quality in the food chain, and stimulate value for sustainable rural development. EU citizens and consumers are increasingly demanding high quality traditional products of protected geographical origin, and this means that there is a need for agricultural products and foodstuffs whose specific qualities can be clearly recognised. The proposed agreement is the result of bilateral negotiations that had two objectives: on the one hand expansion of the protection and use of the geographical indications system, and on the other, the possibility of intervention at the source of potential misuses of EU geographical indications. Similarly, the Republic of Moldova has an interest in developing and protecting its current geographical indications in the EU territory and strengthening its relations with the EU. In conclusion, the fact that this agreement has no implications for the EU budget means that I fully support it."@en1
