lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the energy crisis has taken and is continuing to take its toll on employment, on the thousands of short-term, temporary and permanent workers in this sector. The major steel conglomerates are increasingly pivoting towards the Far East or the American continent, which raises a question over the direction of our development model. I believe that Europe should resurrect the idea that a manufacturing sector such as ours needs a solid production base, able to supply the European internal market. We must therefore defend this sector and the role of a stable steel industry, and we must support it, Commissioner, if we want to halt the industrial decline. I think we need to move away from the dualism – which has not emerged here this evening, but which is often heard in discussions about this sector – between those who campaign to protect the environment and workers, which is misguided because it does not show us the way forward. An industry in which steel is considered to be an integral part needs the latest production systems, concrete and balanced solutions, which safeguard the various interests, the various requirements. Therefore, we need a strong European plan focusing on sustainability – on which we should never turn our backs, in my opinion – as a source of real added value, with which we can compete in the world, supporting investments, as several parties have already said, new technologies, new processes and upgrading our plants; a European economy that makes efficient use of its resources, including energy, indeed starting with energy and the search for new materials."@en1
