"I voted in favour of this motion for a resolution, because I would firstly like to express my condolences and solidarity with the Japanese people following the natural disaster that claimed many lives and the catastrophe at Fukushima nuclear power plant. Devastated, Japan and its regions need all types of aid and support – humanitarian, financial and technical. I welcome the fact that the European Union immediately activated its Civil Protection Mechanism to coordinate its emergency aid. I would like to draw attention to the fact that the disaster at Fukushima nuclear power plant is forcing us to consider the situation and future as regards European nuclear energy. In the European Parliament we should also discuss and assess the risk posed by nuclear power plants near the European Union’s external borders. All European Union Member States should reflect and take action as regards nuclear power plants in their own countries, because of the possible threat radiation poses to the whole of Europe. Immediately following the events in Japan, for instance, Germany shut down its nuclear reactors built before 1980 and, taking into account specialists’ research and expertise, is negotiating new alternatives to nuclear energy."@en1
