"Mr President, I believe that the summit on globalisation organised by the British Presidency, which will bring together the Heads of State or Government of the EU Member States, is an extremely valuable initiative. Globalisation is a new form of political, economic and cultural colonialism imposed by rich countries upon poor and less-developed countries. One of the greatest threats it poses is the inefficient use of the Earth’s natural resources. The European Commission has proposed that a special fund be set up to combat the effects of globalisation. The question I ask is whether this fund will also be used to support research and development work into environmentally friendly technologies and to promote environmental responsibility among businesses, including multinationals. It is to be hoped that tomorrow’s summit will be one of the factors that enable the EU Member States to launch a long-term policy of measures to prevent the undesirable effects of globalisation."@en1
