"As rapporteur for the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, I actively assisted in drafting the macro-regional strategy for the Mediterranean. I see it as a territorial cooperation tool that will achieve greater synergy between the various intervention instruments through multi-level governance. In this respect, the strategy for the Mediterranean may hinge on the need to develop an integrated maritime transport system covering the whole Mediterranean basin and the development of renewable energy.
A fundamental issue that I have worked for in this dossier is to address the island question at a European level and to ask the EU institutions to implement Article 174 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union by adopting an
strategy that takes account of the handicaps faced by islands.
Another feature of the dossier is the provision that the Commission, in collaboration with the forthcoming Cypriot Presidency of the EU, will adopt a strategic plan for islands that creates the conditions for economic growth in these territories while ensuring their full territorial continuity. A particularly significant point is the call for the Commission to adopt measures, such as increasing the threshold for
aid for islands in the transport, agriculture and fishery sectors, which will make the islands equally competitive with the mainland territories."@en1
