lpv:translated text	"China is one of the world’s fastest growing economies. It is also the EU’s largest trading partner after the United States. It is therefore important for the EU to develop both trade and cooperation with this part of the world. Fundamentally, our attitude is that it is not to Europe’s advantage to alienate itself from this growing economy by means of customs duties and quotas. China’s economic strength is growing in most industries. Today’s ‘textile wars’ will therefore spread to other areas in time. Trying to protect unprofitable industry from international competition is therefore no permanent solution. Sweden has experienced such attempts for 30 years in both the shipbuilding industry and the textiles and ready-made clothing industry. In order to respond to growing international competition, the EU faces the choice either of implementing centrally controlled protectionism or of stimulating growth from below. Unfortunately, a number of the political groups are choosing the first method. We cannot, therefore, support the report. Otherwise, I support the proposal to set up a system for labelling products with their country of origin."@en1
