"The action plan for sustainable development is after all to be presented by the Commission. The question should therefore, in the first instance, be put to the Members of the Commission. However, since the question is nevertheless such an important part of the Swedish Presidency, I cannot refrain from nonetheless giving the viewpoints of the Swedish Presidency concerning the components that the strategy for sustainable development should include.
I believe it is incredibly important that, in the strategy which we hope will be adopted in Gothenburg, we will clearly include three elements that should form part of the concept of sustainable development. These should be the ecological element, the economic element and the social element. We know that two of these elements, namely socially sustainable development and economically sustainable development, will be discussed as early as the Stockholm Summit. We intend to supplement the discussion in Stockholm of these two elements with ecologically sustainable development, so to speak, and then make this into a common strategy that can be adopted at the Gothenburg Summit.
Once again, however, I would like to point out that it is the Commission that is in the driving seat here. We have every confidence in the Commission’s ability to produce a strategy for sustainable development that makes Europe become even greener."@en1
