"I totally concur with this report as it raises a fundamental issue relating to the difficult period we are going through just now: the decline in the European Union’s trading power on the world stage. In spite of the urgent need for action, I support the notion of a long-term economic strategy leading towards economic growth and stability. With this in mind, the European Union must aim both internally and globally at harmonising standards and removing the various obstacles preventing trade and investment.
Having said this, as a member of the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection, I am pleased to see that the report emphasises the importance of striking the balance between achieving these goals, on the one hand, and maintaining high technical standards and economic balance in the European Union, on the other. Last but not least, given the social mission that the European Union has, I fully support the commitment expressed in this report to fight against poverty and to respect, while implementing these measures, fundamental values such as the protection of human rights or the rule of law."@en1
