"I voted in favour of the Březina report on the Framework Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community for nuclear research and training activities (2012-2013). The text mainly focuses on the research aspect (which still accounts for more than EUR 2 billion), but it will not end the controversy over nuclear energy. The disagreement among Member States with regard to energy choices rumbles on and has even taken on a new dimension with the Fukushima disaster of 11 March. The research programme clearly must place particular emphasis on the nuclear safety, security and radiation protection standards applied throughout Europe. It is likewise important to focus on the funding of geological disposal projects and to create synergies between the worlds of fission and fusion. Lastly, in view of the need to ensure Europe’s energy independence while diversifying the energy sources used, it is essential for the Euratom Treaty to be reformed and, at the same time, for the European Parliament to be involved in the various aspects of the nuclear issue. It should be borne in mind that nuclear fission still accounts for one-third of the electricity supplied in Europe."@en1
