"Mr President, I have two questions for the attending Members of the European Commission. First, have you ever entertained the thought that food and agriculture should be excluded from the scope of global free trade, and should instead be governed by food sovereignty – based on local production, local sale and local processing – as its fundamental principle? My second question is that if I were to organise it, would you be willing to sit down to negotiate with representatives of the most important stakeholders, that is, farmers, not only from Europe, including my home country, Hungary, and other EU Member States, but also from the third world, from so-called developing countries, poverty-stricken countries, from where I would similarly invite representatives of small producers? Would you be interested in hearing their own experience in how global free trade, which continues to be glorified by the European Union, is making small producers and smallholders ever more impoverished and vulnerable?"@en1
