"This Agreement, like the others, serves the objectives of liberalisation within the air services sector, with the justification, as in other cases, that the 2002 judgement of the EU Court of Justice deems existing bilateral agreements to contravene Union law. As in other regrettable situations, the interpretation of Union law once more seems to give priority to freedom of competition over all other social and economic precepts.
We are expressing here the same reservations that we have about other agreements, their scope and the possible consequences that they may have. Within the current context in which civil aviation activity is taking place, the creation of equal conditions for the various European companies could contribute to facilitating the process of monopolistic concentration within the sector that is already under way, with all the adverse effects that this would have for aviation company workers and for passengers. In order for the market to be dominant within this sector, the ability of Member States to defend their flag carriers has to be reduced."@en1
