"I voted for this report, which recommends energy policy cooperation with partners beyond our borders. Europe is a major purchaser of energy on global energy markets. While this can be seen as a weakness, it can also be one of our strengths: we are the largest importer, and if we were to use this in a coordinated manner at EU level, and took a firm, common negotiating position with third countries, we would nearly always be in a good bargaining position as we could exert our power as a strong market player on the demand side. A common negotiating approach, extending our sphere of influence beyond Europe’s borders, particularly in the field of energy market rules, could be helpful for all. I voted in favour of this process, and would highlight this among other proposals."@en1
