"Mr President
has launched a hostile TOB for
threatening nearly 50 000 jobs in Europe.
which was born out of the ECSC, enabled the iron and steel industry to be adapted to the new world order at the cost of unprecedented financial and human efforts, which are liable to be written off as a loss.
Although I am concerned about the social consequences in terms of protecting workers and keeping jobs, I also wonder about European industry’s ability to tackle the mergers and transformations resulting from globalisation. Over and above the national positions, however, it is undoubtedly from Europe that the steel workers are awaiting some action. This action will hinge on the implementation of an ambitious European industrial policy endowed with sufficient financial resources and based on a budget priority that is clearly focused on research and development and on innovation.
This case shows that, in the EU’s key economic areas, we must provide long-term answers and, more specifically, act as the driving force behind international regulation. European integration began with steel, and this is truly symbolic: it must be possible for European integration to continue without abandoning
and its employees."@en1
