lpv:translated text	"Mr President-in-Office of the Council, Commissioner, I would like to raise two points which, I would say, concern me, in your statements. The first, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, is that you have not really developed your project on maritime safety. I hope that we will not have any unpleasant surprises, since, as you know, European citizens in both Galicia and France are impatiently, not to say desperately, waiting for Europe to come to their aid, to establish strict rules, clear rules, to ensure safe maritime transport and to prevent pollution. We know, of course, how worried Greece is about this area; we therefore wonder, for example, if it would support the creation of a unit of European coastguards, a ‘Green Berets’ force to organise the volunteers, which was so sorely lacking in Galicia. Would it impose the designation of ports of refuge? I shall stop the list there, Mr President. The second subject that concerns me is the Spring Summit. There again, it is with regret that I would like to say – and I am also addressing the President of the Commission – that you are missing the point, because the Spring Summit had a specific aim, to measure progress made or ground lost in the field of sustainable development through the policies of the Union. The summit you are preparing for is nothing unusual, and yet there is urgency. I shall only give one example: will the Union continue to provide financial aid to multinational companies with nothing in return, without ensuring sustainable employment for employees? I am of course thinking of the Daewoo workers in Lorraine, France, who are once again out of a job while the Union and the region of Lorraine had banked on this restructuring, granting considerable financial aid. This is the opposite of sustainable development. What I would therefore like your spring reports to do is present genuine policies which take account of the environment in order to avoid destroying it and which also create truly sustainable jobs."@en1
