"Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, you were quite right to say that this is not a perfect agreement, Ms Malmström. If we at the EU had done it ourselves we would have done it differently, but this is not a directive, it is an agreement between parties.
An agreement is always better than no agreement though, and this one does help us to move forward. It will also enable further improvements, because each year a European agreement – not secret agreements like those made with all Member States – will return to Parliament and be verified by this House. Therefore, we have to acknowledge a political fact: through this agreement, Europe is negotiating with the US and comes directly under US jurisdiction.
I would like to thank my group for allowing free voting and for allowing the delegation from the Italian
to vote in favour of the agreement."@en1
