This report, like other reports on international trade, aims principally to align the legislation in this field with the amendments affecting this field introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon. The amendments introduced by the rapporteur aim at aligning the amended provisions to the changes brought about by ‘Trade Omnibus I’ to the Regulations concerning application of Stabilisation and Association Agreements and Interim Agreements. However, we must assess this report on its deeper significance, bearing in mind positions of principle concerning the Treaty and the provisions therein on trade policy. In principle the Treaty of Lisbon lays down that commercial policy is the exclusive competence of the EU. Commercial interests are clearly different from country to country, since the respective economies and their weaknesses and potential are different. Placing the interests of the strongest over those of the weakest in this field, as in other fields, is harmful to the weaker economies and that is happening with Portugal, which is subject to the commercial interests of the big companies of the EU powers, especially Germany, which are so often contrary to the interests of the national productive fabric."@en1
