"Mr President, if we think that access to safe and cheap energy is an inalienable right and if we want everyone to be able to consume the energy necessary to his or her development, we cannot but concur with the objectives stated in the report by our fellow MEP, Mr Buzek. We must give our full backing to ITER and to nuclear fusion. It is a solution for the future that will guarantee the independence of our energy supply, access for all to electricity and the development of skilled jobs in industry.
Let us at the same time acknowledge that alternative sources of energy will not allow us to respond to demand and that fossil-based sources of energy just make pollution worse. Faced with this reality, I am, however, surprised that it is being proposed to us that we reduce the funds allocated to Euratom. We should, emphatically, be doing the opposite. Moreover, only public control, as distinct from the single energy market, will enable us in complete safety to achieve the objectives set by Euratom. If France has one of the least expensive energy supplies and is a developed nation, this is because of nuclear power and because the production and distribution of electricity has been a public monopoly."@en1
