"Mr President, I am from Austria – a landlocked country – and therefore I do not look at the Fisheries Partnership Agreement between the European Union and Morocco through the mists of self-interest. On the contrary: I am interested in sustainable, fair fisheries and not in rapidly and greedily fishing the seas until stocks are depleted. Voting in favour of this protocol could only cement injustice further. It would be voting to squander money in a way that is not ecological and that goes against international law. The EU pays more than EUR 36 million annually for access to Moroccan fishing grounds. That is out of all proportion to the jobs that it secures in the European Union. There are smarter ways of using this money for employment measures. Only once it is ensured that the Sahrawis receive their fair share of the fisheries in their coastal waters and that the sea is not overfished will we in the European Parliament be abiding by our own values and principles."@en1
