lpv:translated text	". It goes without saying that cooperation with Russia is of key importance for the European Union. The same also applies to the problem of secure energy supplies, to which Russia can provide a partial solution. At the same time, however, there can be no one who is not concerned at the way in which the major energy companies operate in Russia. I need only remind the House that the head of Gazprom leads Putin’s cabinet, that his deputy chief of staff, Mr Sechin, runs Rosneft, and that Mr Ivanov, Mr Surkov and Mr Prikhodko are in charge of Transneft, Aeroflot and so on. This all begs the question of whether these companies are in fact operating according to market mechanisms, or whether they are instead instruments of Russian foreign policy. A great many recent developments, such as the problems experienced with the supply of crude oil to Ukraine, suggest that the latter is the case. A further question that needs to be addressed relates to the future direction of Russian policy. No one could fail to be alarmed at the bill presented by Mr Dmitri Rogozin to the Duma, which, if it is adopted, will make it possible for Russia to incorporate whole new regions into the Russian Federation without anyone’s permission. Those justifying such a move have made it quite clear which regions are involved, and these include Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Transdnistria. This leaves us with the problem of whether we should not occasionally alert Russia to our concerns, which are entirely justified. Of course, it will be Russia that decides on the future shape of our relations with Russia and on the future face of Russia itself, but I do not believe that there should be any let up in our efforts to highlight certain concerns."@en1
