lpv:translated text	"Madam President, we are debating an issue that is extremely important for the outermost regions. In these regions, in these distant islands, the price of an airline ticket is the price of the distance to freedom and that is something we must understand. I want to thank our rapporteur, Peter Liese, for his obviously deep understanding of the positions of the outermost regions. However, I regret the Commission’s insensitivity towards the situation of our regions and I must say that, despite having reached a compromise which is positive and which has in fact taken a few steps in the right direction, we feel that the issue is in no way settled. I therefore want to make an appeal, particularly to Avril Doyle who is responsible for the report that we will shortly be considering, that we take account of the positions of the outermost regions and that we bear in mind that being in a region completely cut off from the continents is completely different from being here in the centre of Europe. If we fail to understand this, I believe that we will fail to achieve good legislation, so I want to call on Mrs Doyle to take inspiration from the spirit of Peter Liese’s report so that we can send a positive message to these regions."@en1
