"This report concerns the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the allocation of tariff-rate quotas applying to exports of wood from the Russian Federation to the European Union. The Russian Federation is an important partner of the EU, with which it has various partnership agreements although, despite its accession to the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the rule of law and respect for human rights are not duly observed by Russia’s leaders. The EU imports large quantities of raw wood from the Russian Federation, and the Commission has therefore negotiated a new agreement under which Russia will reduce or eliminate export duties on raw wood. In the context of the negotiations regarding Russia’s accession to the WTO, the Commission has negotiated with Russia an Agreement relating to the administration of those tariff-rate quotas applying to exports of wood and a Protocol on the technical modalities in accordance with the Agreement. I voted in favour of conferring implementing powers on the Commission in order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of the Agreement and the Protocol following their entry into force, which will happen on the day of the regulation’s publication in the Official Journal of the European Union."@en1
