"Madam President, I would like to express my regret that, unfortunately, counter-piracy measures are not producing the expected results. The statistics show that the number of attacks on merchant ships now comes to several hundred per year, and the pirates are still holding over 450 people hostage. Up till now, an important role in the fight against the pirates has been played by the EU and its Operation Atalanta. This is, unfortunately, changing for the worse. The number of vessels taking part in counter-piracy operations is falling drastically. In 2009, 35 vessels were still part of these operations, while in 2011, there were only 10, and now there are only three. In other words, the EU must not appeal to others; it must itself make much greater and more specific efforts in the fight against piracy."@en1
