lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the report talks of the liberalisation of trade, investment and public tendering leading to mutual benefit. Trade liberalisation is, of course, a euphemism for globalisation, which actually leads to mutual detriment. The European Union will export its industrial technology to Central America, or possibly even relocate its manufacturing there, employing cheaper labour working in inferior conditions. Cheap, duty-free goods will flow into the EU, jeopardising profits, wages and jobs in Member States. These are already in deep recession, with rising government debt. The report boasts of the expansion of the quantity and range of goods that will be tariff-free. The commitment to public tendering will allow multinationals based in the EU to swallow up public procurement contracts in Central America. This agreement, like globalisation – of which it is a part – is not for the benefit of ordinary people there or here, but in the interests of multinational corporations."@en1
