"Mr President, I too commend the initiative of my colleagues, which I regard as extremely important in the current context. I agree that there should be a reorientation from States with a socialist agenda to States that invest in job creation and generate competitiveness. My main concern is the situation of young people, because they are the ones most affected by the economic crisis, and youth unemployment has reached an alarming level. Against this background, vocational training programmes are vital, and the re-establishment of vocational schools has an important place in this.
Jobs should be created by exploiting our own mineral resources too, not just via foreign investment. Facilities should also be provided to encourage employers to take on young people, by decreasing employers’ contributions. However, measures are needed at EU level too. I call on the Commission to put forward proposals to support young people, in line with the European Council’s conclusions of January."@en1
