lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I voted against Amendment No 54 which would have allowed a derogation from our yield limits on cigarettes exported to third countries. All cigarettes are harmful. None do any good. Smoking is an addiction, indeed a slow suicide, as we have voted, and manufacturers have admitted and known for some time that it causes cancer and other diseases. I agree that third countries should set their own health rules but we should not approve of double standards. If we choose tight protection for our citizens we should not allow the exporting of more dangerous products which profit from the addiction of others. No man is an island. All human beings are involved with each other. I cannot condone profiting from the ill-health of third world citizens."@en1
