lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would like to highlight one particular article in this report – Article 32. It says that it is likely that more and more companies in Europe will be dependent on having access to credit card payments and it urges the Commission to come up with objective rules to say under what circumstances the big payment providers – Visa, MasterCard and PayPal – may reject a business. This came up in the context of the Wikileaks affair, when the same three big payment services decided to close down a whistleblowers’ website based in Iceland – inside the European Economic Area – because of political pressure from the US. But we also saw only last week that there has been quite a lot of talk in the media about Visa, MasterCard and PayPal deciding to close down a small shop that was selling horror movies simply because they do not like horror movies. I understand that they have now since changed their opinion on that, but it illustrates the problem and I hope the Commission will look seriously at this."@en1
