". Madam President, Commissioner, I am grateful to our fellow Member, Mrs Breyer, for her motion for a resolution, which was unanimously adopted within my committee. The globalisation and liberalisation of the economy do not just make successes out of people. That is why I ask what place the weakest have in society and what resources there are to promote a solidarity economy. Politicians and economists must be creative in their efforts to ensure that men and women can really flourish and must promote the common public good without excessive government interference, which would harm the national economies. Paragraphs 15 and 26 mention the classification of the Member States. That is provocative. However, since 1951, this classification has appeared in the International Labour Organisation conventions signed by the Member States of the European Union. The paragraphs that deal with the relations with third countries emphasise that women, as economic players, must be recognised in all of the activities they carry out in terms of personal, family and educational development and in all of the duties they perform within society. The unpaid and informal work done by women deserves greater recognition in European policies. This resolution also reminds us that we, in the West, must avoid at all costs any form of neo-colonialism and that we must respect the cultures of our economic partners, while ensuring the abolition of all forms of discrimination between men and women. That is why I encourage my group to endorse this resolution in the hope that, in the not too distant future, the political declarations on equality between men and women will finally be reflected in economic life."@en1
