".
The objectives of this Agreement are set out clearly by the rapporteur: the ‘opening of the market’: in other words, the deepening of the liberalisation under way within this sector, ‘creating a single market for air transport’. It should be stressed, as pointed out by the rapporteur, that the aviation markets of the EU and the US together represent around 60% of global air traffic.
The promises of benefits for workers and passengers that always accompany these liberalisation processes are as old and trite as they are false, as demonstrated by the reality in cases where liberalisation has gone ahead, whether in this sector or in other sectors. Propaganda relating to ‘environmental cooperation’ has now been added to these promises; a question that can and must be tackled without doubt, but not within this context. Even here, it is clear what the intention is: promoting the compatibility and interaction of emission licence-trading regimes.
In the name of free competition, which justifies everything and to which everything is subject, severe limitations are being placed on state intervention in defence of the interests of national airlines, and therefore in defence of national strategic interests in a number of areas, such as links with migrant communities."@en1
