Mr President, within the scope of transatlantic economic relations, it is important to recognise the role and specificities of the culture and education sectors. We are pleased, therefore, to note that the rapporteur has taken into account the entire opinion of the Committee on Culture and Education.
The ‘cultural key’ can actually contribute towards strengthening our relationship and promoting mutual understanding between Europeans and Americans. Consequently, the establishment of a dialogue devoted to culture and education should encourage regular exchange of good practice and experience in fields such as the fight against piracy, the mobility of cultural players, or, again, the development of cultural tourism.
Regarding education, this dialogue should focus on strengthening the mutual recognition of vocational qualifications but also on interchanges of researchers and of university teachers and students. We should mention, therefore, that the forthcoming renewal of the Cooperation programme between our two continents in the fields of higher education and vocational training will also be of great benefit. On the other hand, the specificity of the audiovisual sector entails transatlantic exchanges that respect Europe’s cultural and linguistic diversity.
On this point, and in conclusion, we regret, nonetheless, that the United States did not choose to follow the Union and vote in favour of the Unesco Convention.
Finally, I congratulate Mrs Mann for the quality of her work and careful listening."@en1
