lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I want to give an oral explanation of vote because what has happened, once again, is not very good news for our Parliament. In fact consumers, associations and all those concerned with the environment, with health, with the expected risks due to GMOs released into the environment, were expecting the European Parliament to send out a strong signal. Once again we have simply kowtowed to the lobby of the advocates of GMOs on the pretext that science will help to make the world a better place. We know full well that as yet there is no toxicology study that evaluates the consequences of releasing GMOs into the environment. So we can only regret that those amendments that went much further, that indeed allowed us to anticipate the implications of GMOs for nature, were not accepted. Mr President, I therefore condemn the kind of compromise reached between the major political groups, which goes against what the consumers and associations expected of us, as well as all those who trusted the European Parliament and who expect our Members to adopt firm positions."@en1
