"I welcome the adoption of this report on the taxation of energy and electricity products in the European Union. Parliament has clearly demonstrated that CO
emissions are harmful and that it is not reasonable, in this context of crisis, to impose high taxation on energy consumption alone. I note that the report as adopted takes a stance in favour of the fairest possible taxation and that it does not penalise consumers of diesel. I believe that the target for reducing CO
emissions should not be a brake on activity. I expect the Council to follow the position of the European Parliament. The issue here is the competitiveness of companies as well as the purchasing power of European citizens."@en1
