lpv:translated text	"Combating tax fraud and tax avoidance is now a major political challenge. In addition to the reduction in public spending, it is only by beating tax evasion that we will find a way out of the current economic crisis. As Greece, stuck in the economic doldrums, has shown, for the State, tax fraud represents a missed opportunity due to the amount of uncollected income. Since national policies have been unable to obtain convincing results, it becomes a matter of urgency for the European Union to react. Its action must be geared as a priority to the fight against tax havens, in particular by drawing up a global strategy focused on transparency. It is high time that the European Union introduced practical measures to make tax evasion more difficult and prevent the use of tax havens which reject any cooperation with foreign tax authorities. In this resolution we also request the early implementation of improved cooperation and greater coordination on tax issues, not only between the Member States of the European Union but also with third countries. Social justice within our Member States is at stake."@en1
