lpv:translated text	"Madam President, firstly, I would like to say that everything that the Commission and the Council have said today about a ‘New Green Deal’ in the light of the global financial crisis is, in my opinion, incorrect and that as yet no political resolve of any kind is behind the pronouncement of the ‘New Green Deal’. For several months now, European industrial organisations have been mobilising against our European climate and energy strategy. The proposals made by Commissioner Dimas, Commissioner Piebalgs and Mr Michel in connection with development policy have been systematically softened up, diluted and delayed. This attitude has not been abandoned in any way in the light of the financial crisis; instead industry has begun to use the financial crisis to exert even more pressure against a systematic climate and energy policy. I believe that this fact has to be recorded at this point as the truth will out and no progress will be made by only claiming to develop a new policy. If you take a closer look at the current trialogue, the negotiations on climate policy between the Council, the Commission and Parliament, you will be able to see that I am right. This is because these negotiations are not exactly characterised by ambition, but by precisely that outdated industrial policy that nobody here wants to hear anything about, or so we are told. The President of the Commission, Mr Barroso, and the Commissioner for Industry, Mr Verheugen, are, in my opinion, responsible for this. I am in favour of this Parliament finally deciding to show their support for those people, such as Mr Dimas and Mr Michel, who actually do stand for sustainable strategies. What is needed at the moment is sincerity. Mr Steiner from UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme) presented a very good plan in London the week before last. Let us get down to business and stop making vacuous speeches as was the case in the first part of the debate. In the next few weeks we will have the opportunity to bring the trialogue to a conclusion, and then we will be able to assess whether the Commission and the Council have just been faking it today or whether they were serious."@en1
