lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the pictures of the fishermen and the volunteers fighting the oil slick from the with their small boats and their bare hands demonstrate the enormous strength of an entire people – the Galicians – and prove the culpability of the European Council and the Spanish State. It is now clear that Galicia’s citizens are suffering the consequences of the serious political conflict which opposes the positive proposals put forward by the Commission and which has led to the selfishness and irresponsibility demonstrated by the Member States of the Council. The Copenhagen decisions have not answered the anguished questions of the citizens but instead the interests of the predatory capitalism of the oil companies which, taking advantage of the murky and primitive international situation, reject all and any attempt to establish European legislation to protect our seas. The Council, as well as Mr Aznar, has shown contempt for the people of Galicia by having taken no rapid decision to help that region. It has shown contempt for the fact that Galicia suffers more disasters than any other part of the world. The Council has granted Galicia and the neighbouring territories a miserable EUR five million more, whereas the United States, which has strict and specific legislation, clearly lacking in Europe, is claiming USD four billion for the accident. Ladies and gentlemen, our citizens are demanding that we put an end to this situation, starting with setting up a committee of inquiry. This must never happen again. Never again! ( )"@en1
