"Mr President, today’s exchange of opinions shows that the debate on the legal regulation of animal cloning is going to be difficult. I think that with these new technologies for food production, we are, as it were, jumping into a swimming pool without first checking if there is any water in it. This concerns genetic modifications, the cultivation of genetically modified plants and cloning. Science has not said its last word on this subject. Science is opening up huge opportunities, but we do not have a full picture of the far-reaching effects of using the new technologies – what effect this will have on biodiversity, the equilibrium between species and the health of people and animals. There are signals which say that cloning is not good for the health of the animals involved, that they are not healthy animals, and that this often involves suffering on their part. Therefore, let us be careful in these matters. We still do not know enough to take such a huge risk. I am therefore in favour of maintaining the ban on cloning animals for meat production in the European Union."@en1
