lpv:translated text	"( ) Overall, I voted in favour of the motion for a resolution on the EU’s strategic objectives for the 15th Conference of the Parties in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). I also endorsed the amendments to include northern bluefin tuna in Appendix II of the CITES, in accordance with the recent recommendations by the Ad Hoc Committee of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the UN, which supported the announcement of the inclusion of northern bluefin tuna in Appendix II of the CITES. Following this, the General Assembly of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) set a considerable reduction in the fishing of bluefin tuna by 13 500 tonnes and the European Commission restated its concern at the reduction in tuna stocks and committed itself to carrying out more reliable scientific studies. I realise that the loss of biodiversity is a serious problem the world over, and I believe that other animals should be the focus of other preservation proposals. I see this conference as crucial to the survival and sustainability of many species. Ultimately, I believe that a total ban on international trade in tuna – its inclusion in Appendix I – would be premature, as it would spark a crisis in the sector without being based on any concrete facts."@en1
