lpv:translated text	"Mr President, first of all, I would like to thank Mrs Jackson, because, although I was not here when the resolution was debated, she accepted four of the five amendments we tabled. Secondly, we must correct recital C of the motion for a resolution we tabled, because this recital states that 83 countries have ratified the Kyoto Protocol but – as the Commissioner so rightly said – at the beginning of October, 95 countries had ratified it, which equates to 37.1% of CO2 emissions. I believe we are going to repeat ourselves; I believe we all agree that some matters should take priority – as the Commissioner said – succeeding in persuading Russia, by means of all the necessary diplomatic steps and pressure, to sign the Protocol would mean exceeding 55% of emissions, which would enable us to consider the Kyoto Protocol implemented. I must say that, sadly, my country is no example when it comes to reducing emissions, but rather the opposite. We need to put pressure on the various countries so that they continue to fulfil the commitments we have all undertaken, and there is no doubt that renewable energies will play a very important part in this direction we are taking, in addition to transport, despite the poor result achieved in Johannesburg with regard to renewable energies. The need to instigate a debate in New Delhi on objectives beyond 2012, on means and mechanisms for sanctions and on conflict-resolution mechanisms, could be of great importance for the summit. Mr President, I shall end by referring to the role of the Members of the European Parliament in these summits which – as the Commissioner so rightly said – should be substantial, but not because we want to be present in every single discussion, but because I believe we can be of help to the Commission and to those who are determined that the Kyoto Protocol should become reality."@en1
