"This recommendation by Inese Vaidere concerns the draft Council decision on the conclusion of the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the European Union and the Russian Federation relating to the administration of tariff-rate quotas applying to exports of wood from the Russian Federation to the European Union and the Protocol between the European Union and the Government of the Russian Federation on technical modalities pursuant to that Agreement. The abovementioned bilateral agreement between the EU and Russia, which was negotiated in the framework of Russia’s accession process to the World Trade Organisation, needs the European Parliament’s consent in order to be signed by the Council. The Russian Federation has agreed to reduce its currently applied export duty rates on raw materials, including wood products, and has allocated to the EU a specific share of the quotas, while keeping the power to issue export licences. I voted in favour of this draft decision because the import of wood from Russia is in the interests of the Member States and because this agreement will avoid consecutive increases of wood export duties applied by Russia since 2007, which have adversely affected many EU producers."@en1
