"This report refers to the 2010 communication from the Commission entitled ‘Trade, Growth and World Affairs’, which contains a number of guidelines for the EU’s future trade and investment policy. I support the Commission’s communication and the proposals for how to meet the need for a future European trade policy because we need to consolidate the EU’s role as a trading power at a time when the global economy is under strain and we are experiencing a rapid shift in the economic balance of power. The fact is that the EU’s overall trade performance is declining and the EU’s share of GDP is falling as a result of the rapid progress of the emerging countries. I voted in favour of this report because I support its view that the Commission’s communication should not merely contain guidelines for the trade policy that the EU should pursue, but should also contain a real EU trade strategy that takes account of the developments that both define and affect global trade."@en1
