"Madam President, in the last few years, the European Union has, in my opinion, encouraged policies supporting biodiversity in this our Europe, not allowing individual crops, plants and species either to proliferate excessively or to die out. However, existing import regulations allow other countries outside the European Union to export their production to the European Union, including products that contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and pesticides and herbicides prohibited in Europe. In this way, we are giving our backing in Europe to the proliferation of GMOs and harmful chemical substances. We need much stricter rules and restrictions on the use and export of GMOs.
For my part, I can say that in my country, Latvia, 90% of all local authorities have declared that their territory is free of genetically modified organisms."@en1
