lpv:translated text	". I voted in favour of a postponement of the vote on the SWIFT agreement. A four-week adjournment would have opened the way for further negotiations. With this decision, we have shown the Commission we know better; we could have used the opportunity to address the justified concerns of our citizens and companies concerning the protection of their data in the interim agreement, which is already in force. It is ultimately our responsibility to protect civil liberties and fundamental rights. However, by rejecting the postponement, this House has passed up the opportunity to use its new powers responsibly and to increase its own sway over the negotiations. On the other hand, though, there was no way I could have voted in favour of the SWIFT agreement. The breach of confidence committed by the USA in an incredibly arrogant show of self-serving mentality is too flagrant, and it was matched by the contempt which the Council showed Parliament. Now, however, what we have to do is negotiate a new, long-term agreement, quickly and self-confidently, with the involvement of the European Parliament, no matter how strong the transatlantic friendship might be. Such an agreement must reflect EU standards, because controlled data exchange in the fight against international terrorism is in the European interest, too."@en1
