".
Counting the seven outermost regions which it has in the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, along with the Overseas Territories, the European Union occupies the largest maritime area in the world. Furthermore, the EU has another asset – its well-established maritime tradition requiring a ‘blue growth’ strategy to be devised, which must be implemented in close collaboration with the EU 2020 Strategy. Such an economic strategy can continue to develop the potential of the various maritime sectors. Indeed, local and regional authorities, coastal area communities etc. can and must play an important role within this strategy.
Similarly to other European policies, the integrated maritime policy can help achieve an important objective – creating a competitive, social and sustainable European Union with a high level of employment, which may make the maritime sector even more attractive to young people or other job-seekers. At the same time, Europe must devise measures supporting intervention in the case of disasters, like the one in the Gulf of Mexico, and must submit a coordinated European action plan to prevent emergency situations and tackle disasters caused by drilling rigs, at global level, especially where cross-border pollution occurs."@en1
