"Mr President, I voted in favour of the report on reforming the common market organisation for wine, because I believe it contains many positive proposals.
As this report was worked on in the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development, it was very obvious that the committee was divided into two camps. One comprised of the countries of northern and central Europe, and the other included southern European countries.
Nonetheless, I am sure everyone agrees that action must be taken to balance the situation on the market. I also believe that the possibility of using sugar beet to enrich wine in wine-growing region A must be retained. Failure to do so would amount to discrimination against the countries located in parts of the Union where the climate makes wine growing more difficult. Those regions have never produced surpluses and should be exempt from the ban on certain plantings, which is aimed at limiting production.
In addition, I feel that the resources allocated to the emergency distillation of wine surpluses should be limited. The additional wine alcohol produced in this way distorts the market in ethyl alcohol and is a burden on the Union’s budget."@en1
