"Madam President, right now in Chile, there are 33 miners underground waiting to be rescued. They have the full support of the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, as do the miners in the mineshafts and streets of Asturias, El Bierzo, Aragon and Palencia who are demanding the rescue of the European coal industry. This rescue is in the hands of the European Commission, and when it decides on the viability of the Spanish Royal Decree and the European coal aid regulation, it will be deciding on the livelihoods of 40 000 families in Spain. It will be encouraging or discouraging investment in extraction and clean coal combustion technologies, and it will therefore be deciding on the future of many regions in Europe, including my own region of Asturias, as leaders in the industry, and on the survival of our only indigenous energy source. The Commission must be aware of the social, economic and strategic consequences of taking a decision against coal, the mining industry and its workers."@en1
