"I voted in favour of the report by Mr Iacolino, which must be praised for dealing with such a delicate and controversial issue as the implementation of Article 10 of the United Nations Firearms Protocol and the establishment of export authorisation, import and transit measures for firearms, their parts and components and ammunition. Article 10 of the Protocol must, however, be adopted by all the Member States in order to provide a genuine, unanimous response to illegal trafficking in weapons, which is clearly one of the main causes of disagreement in this resolution. On the other hand, as we pursue the entirely positive aim of fighting crime, we must not run the risk of hindering or making legal trade in weapons difficult. Mr Iacolino’s text succeeds in acknowledging the needs of an economic sector that is important not just for individual Member States, but also for the European Union. I think that managing to balance both sides of a thorny issue is a notable achievement in the approach to implementing Article 10 of the Protocol."@en1
