lpv:translated text	". While I support most of its conclusions, in particular the one stating that negotiations must lead to genuine market openness and trade facilitation on the ground, rather than just a hypothetical legal openness, I nevertheless abstained from voting on this resolution on possible launching of trade negotiations with Japan. Set up in the 1990s, the EU-Japan High Level Group given the task of harmonising our rules has only managed to make progress on three texts; Japanese non-tariff barriers are still too numerous and public procurement markets too closed. Good intentions and media headlines are not enough; they must be matched by a lot of work and strong political will. Yet, for now, such political will does not seem to be emerging on the Japanese side. I expect the same lucidity and the same pragmatism from the European Commission, and I hope it does not start negotiations until it is sure that an agreement will be genuinely profitable for both parties."@en1
