"Madam President, one of the trans-European transport corridors is the rail corridor known as the ‘Mediterranean corridor’. It is a vital link that will link North Africa with Europe.
It is vital for Spain because this line is a priority, given that it would link Algeciras with Europe. It would not exclude other priority corridors and would pass through Almería, Murcia, the Community of Valencia and Catalonia. The reason was mentioned by Commissioner Reding: greater economic activity and a greater concentration of land transport. This is one of the two conditions. It would open up the possibility of linking with various sea ports in the Mediterranean. We need to provide economic impetus and be competitive – something that the Commissioner was also saying – because this area produces more than 50% of Spanish exports.
Therefore, if we promote a strategic rail network through the Mediterranean, we will achieve greater competitiveness for Spain and for Europe."@en1
