"Madam President, Commissioner, the collapse of the Polish shipbuilding industry is necessary neither to Poland nor to the European Union. We therefore have to find a solution together.
Firstly, the European Commission needs to withdraw its demands for repayments of public funding, particularly as the bulk of these were backed by government guarantees to the borrowers. Secondly, asking the shipyards to pay up at a time when the European Union is retreating from the market economy and nationalising the banks is unfair and undermines the purpose of the European Union.
Thirdly, the economy in the European Union and in Poland must develop. Development cannot be based solely on liquidating or limiting the production of individual industries. Fourthly, the desire for liquidating the shipyards, the birthplace of the Solidarity movement and the changes in Europe, may result in a defensive reaction of public dissatisfaction on a large scale, which nobody needs at the moment. And fifthly, in the European Union almost one hundred million people are already living on the threshold of biological survival. Why multiply poverty?"@en1
