Med henvisning til EU's økonomiske politikker, understregede Guy Verhofstadt (ALDE, BE), at "det grundlæggende spørgsmål er, om Rådet og medlemsstaterne er villige til at ændre den fejlslagne åbne koordinationsmetode" I forhold til klimaændringer mente Verhofstadt at der var brug for en anden strategi til processen efter Københavnstopmødet.
On climate change, Mr Verhostadt advocated "a different strategy, post-Copenhagen..
"Vore tilgang har slået fejl.
Our approach there failed.
Vi skal have en plan baseret på tre elementer: En højtstående repræsentant med ansvar for klimaændringer , en trilateral aftale med USA og Kina, og samarbejde med USA om f.eks. emissionshandelsordningen ".
We must have a plan based on three elements: A Mr or Mrs Climate Change, a trilateral agreement with the US and China, and a shared common interest with the US such as the emissions trading scheme".
I en kommentar til indlægget understregede Zapatero behovet for at indføre et sanktionssystem, hvis EU ønsker at gennemføre en ny økonomisk udviklingsstrategi.
In reply, Mr Zapatero stressed the need to have in place a sanctions system if the EU really means to implement a new economic development strategy.
"Alt hvad vi har gjort sammen virker: Euroen, stabilitetspagten og det indre marked", sagde han.
"Everything we've done together works: Euro, Stability Pact, Internal Market", he said.
I forhold til den økonomiske situation, advarede Cohn-Bendit om, at økonomisk vækst også kan være meget ødelæggende for klimaet: "hvis ikke vi diskuterer hvilken form for vækst, vi ønsker, på EU-niveau, vil vi gøre de samme fejltagelser".
On the economic situation, Cohn-Bendit warned that economic growth can also be very destructive for climate: "if we don't discuss the kind of growth we want at EU level, we will make the same mistakes", he said.
På spørgsmålet om energiafhængighed, sagde Cohn-Bendit, at "energieffektivitet og energibesparelser" er den bedste måde at løse problemet på.
He recommended "energy efficiency and saving" to reduce energy dependency.
Timothy Kirkhope (ECR., UK) roste planerne for det spanske formandskab.
Timothy Kirkhope (ECR, UK) praised Spain's contribution to the EU.
Han mente ikke, at en "obligatorisk økonomisk politik med sanktioner", var relevant i den aktuelle situation, og tilføjede at det lugtede af socialisme.
But "establishing compulsory economic policies with sanctions", instead of co-ordinating them, "is not relevant to the current situation", he argued.
Hertil svarede Zapatero, at det ikke var meningen at øge kontrollen over medlemsstaterne, men snarere at øge konkurrenceevnen.
Mr Zapatero replied that the intention was not to increase control over Member States but rather "to have more competitiveness".
Han forklarede, at 27 forskellige nationale systemer ikke ville fungere på verdensplan, og at man derfor kunne risikere en forværring af EU's konkurrenceevne.
He explained that 27 separate national systems would not work on the world stage, and attempts to make them do so risked undermining the EU's global competitiveness.
Willy Meyer (GUE/NGL, ES) mente ikke, at programmet for det spanske formandskab kunne løse de grundlæggende problemer i økonomien.
Willy Meyer (GUE/NGL, ES) said "your programme does not sort out the fundamental problems of the economy.
Du er dybest set afvikle den europæiske sociale model," sagde han.
You're basically dismantling the European social model", he said.
Marta Andreasen (EFD, UK) benyttede lejligheden til at tale om byplanlægning i Spanien, og henviste til at Europa-Parlamentet har vedtaget tre rapporter uden at der efterfølgende er truffet nogen særlige foranstaltninger.
Mr Meyer objected to Mr Zapatera's plan to hold a summit with Morocco under the Spanish presidency because Morocco does not recognise Western Sahara's right to self-determination.
MEP´erne havde håbet på et bedre resultat i København Flertallet af MEP`erne gav under onsdagens klimadebat udtryk for stor skuffelse over de manglende resultater ved klimatopmødet i København.
He also said that Israel should respect the human rights provisions of the Association agreement.
Der var bred enighed om, at EU bør gøre en indsats for at udvikle en ny strategi, der kan bane vejen for en ny bindende klimaaftale i Mexico til november.
In his replies, Mr Zapatera reiterated his intention to hold the meeting with Morocco.
Klimakonferencen i København fandt sted fra den 7. til 18. december 2009.
Marta Andreasen (EFD, UK) raised the complaints of British citizens who had lost their homes in Spain due to alleged abuses of planning regulations.
Det var første gang nogensinde, at 110 stats- og regeringsledere var samlet med kun ét enkelt punkt på dagsordenen.
"Three reports have been approved by Parliament but no specific action has been taken", she said.
Copenhagen Accord: Hvad ændrede sig?
Spanish Presidency EP Press office
For første gang "anerkendes" 2-graders målsætningen (før det var blot en videnskabelig anbefaling, nu er det et "fælles mål")
Nikiforos Diamandouros was elected in January 2003 Nikiforos Diamandouros (Greece) was re-elected European Ombudsman on Wednesday.
Alle udviklede lande (herunder USA) forhandler nu inden for en fælles international ramme.
Mr Diamandouros, who has held the position since 2003, was backed by 340 MEPs in a secret plenary vote.
Aftalen omfatter også en fælles metode til verificering af de udviklede landes emissionsreduktioner
The European Ombudsman investigates citizens' complaints of maladministration by EU institutions.
De udviklede lande har forpligtet sig til at betale 30 milliarder dollars i klimastøtte til udviklingslandene i perioden 2010 - 2012
The other candidates, Pierre-Yves Monette (Belgium) and Vittorio Bottoli (Italy), received 289 and 19 votes respectively.
Udviklingslandene har for første gang indvilget i at deltage i indsatsen for at mindske klimaændringerne og er "tilsyneladende" indstillet på at lade deres indsats omfatte international kontrol
Mr Diamandouros' priorities for his mandate, which runs until 2014, are to ensure that EU delivers the benefits for citizens promised by the Lisbon Treaty, strengthen constructive dialogue with EU institutions and bodies and improve service to citizens, by using resources more efficiently.
Der var ingen bindende reduktionsmålsætninger for CO2-udslip på lang sigt (2050)
The Ombudsman election procedure is supervised by the Petitions Committee, which checks that applications are admissible and that candidates fulfil all the conditions required for the post.
Copenhagen Accord er ikke et juridisk bindende dokument, og det "anerkender" blot behovet for at holde de globale temperaturstigninger på under 2 graders celsius
EU rules establish, inter alia, that the Ombudsman must "offer every guarantee of independence".
MEP-delegationen: EU har brug for en klar strategi
The Ombudsman is elected by Parliament in a secret vote at the start of each parliamentary term.
Under onsdagens klimadebat var der udbredt skuffelse over, at det ikke var lykkedes verdens ledere at nå frem til en mere ambitiøs klimaaftale.
The role of the Ombudsman, established in 1995, is to investigate cases of maladministration by the EU institutions, including lack of transparency and refusal to provide information or documents.
Franske Corinne Lepage (ALDE, delegationsmedlem) understregede vigtigheden af, at EU fortsætter sin offensive politik på klimaområdet, på trods af det skuffende resultat i København.
There were a few rays of optimism with Jo Leinen MEP, the head of the EP delegation to Copenhagen saying the EU needed to find "strategic partners" in the run up to the next climate conference in November.
Hun opfordrede EU-landene til at udvikle en "solid og ambitiøs" strategi til at "skubbe økonomien i en mere energieffektiv retning".
Others welcomed progress on financing as developed countries committed $30 billion to help developing states adapt.
"Vi er virkelig nødt til at fastholde vores førerposition verden, når det kommer til at bekæmpelse af klimaændringer.
The word "disappointing" cropped up repeatedly during the afternoon's debate although many said the EU should continue to move forward and not become dependent on the commitments of others.
Det kan kun lykkes, såfremt vi er i stand til at tale med én stemme".
Dutch EPP Member Corien Wortmann-Kool, who attended the conference, said that the EU's "30% must still stand".
Lederen af Parlamentets delegation til København, Jo Leinen (S&D, Tyskland), udtrykte tilfredshed med "det spanske formandskabs engagement i kampen mod klimaændringer", men han var bekymret over tendensen til uenighed blandt EU´s medlemslande.
She went on to appeal for people not to lose hope: "We have to review our strategy but we still have to cling to our ambition."
"Vi er nødt til at genvinde vores lederskab i kampen mod klimaændringer, og derfor er vi nødt til at alliere os med strategiske partnere i tiden op til den næste store klimakonference i Mexico".
French ALDE Member Corinne Lepage said, Europe had "to maintain our position as world leaders".
Leinen understregede vigtigheden af at opbygge alliancer med udviklingslandene, som han håbede ville blive mere konstruktive i takt med at klimastøtten fra de industrialiserede lande begynder at blive udbetalt.
She called for "a robust and ambitious strategy to move the economy in a more energy efficient direction."
Det finske delegationsmedlem Satu Hassi (Verts/ALE, delegationsmedlem) var også skuffet over resultatet i København, men hun noterede sig, at man for første gang anerkendte FN´s 2-graders målsætning.
At the conference there was movement on climate as all developed countries (including the US) agreed to work within the same international framework.
"Det er helt klart, at der var nogle, som ønskede at sabotere aftalen...
The Copenhagen Accord, which is not legally binding, also includes a " method for verifying " developing nations' emission reductions.
EU kan kun fungere effektivt, hvis vi taler med én stemme - det var ikke tilfældet.
In addition developed countries committed themselves to pay $30 billion between 2010 and 2012 in climate support to developing countries.
Jeg tror også, at vi er nødt til at reformere den måde, som FN træffer beslutninger på".
However, the conference failed to come up with any legally binding targets.
Kommissionen håber, at det vil lykkes at nå til enighed om en bindende juridisk aftale inden udgangen af året.
However, she also said "it is quite clear that there are some who wanted to sabotage the agreement" and called for a reform to the UN decision making system.
Europa-Parlamentet stemmer om et beslutningsforslag om COP15 til februar.
The EP is voting on the resolution of the results on COP15 in February's plenary.
Det næste store klimatopmøde finder sted i Mexico fra den 29. november til den 10. december 2010.
The next UN summit on climate change takes place in Mexico 29 November - 10 December 2010.
Ugen i Strasbourg
Strasbourg Parliamentary Session: 10 things you may have missed
Europa-Parlamentets formand, Jerzy Buzek, sagde under et pressemøde tirsdag, at den bulgarske regerings beslutning om at trække Rumiana Jeleva som kommissærkandidat var udtryk for, at den demokratiske høringsproces fungerer.
Ushering in a new political era: Buzek welcomes Spanish PM José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero as Spain's EU presidency begins.
Høringsprocessen skulle oprindelig være afsluttet tirsdag, men nu skal endnu en bulgarer igennem den parlamentariske "høringsmaskine" den 3. februar.
If MEPs speak over their allotted time his job is to bring down the gavel.
Parlamentets hjemmeside dækkede samtlige høringer på Twitter, hvor man kunne finde oplysninger om tid og sted for de enkelte høringer.
Spanish PM Zapatero, President Buzek and EC President Barroso share a joke in Strasbourg on Wednesday.
Flere af de politiske grupper benyttede sig også af Twitter.

Hvis man ønsker at gense høringerne med de indstillede kommissær, kan man finde TV-programmerne på vores særlige hjemmeside om høringerne.
Press room #2: Interpretation for the press is available so nothing is "lost in translation".
"EU skal satse på sig selv", sagde den spanske premierminister, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, da han onsdag talte til MEP´erne i mødesalen i Strasbourg.
The last of the first round of hearings of Commissioners-designate and the withdrawal of Bulgaria's candidate provided a buzz at the start of the first plenary session of 2010 in Strasbourg.
Ved åbningen af samlingen mandag, udtrykte formanden for Parlamentet, Jerzy Buzek, sin sorg over situationen i Haiti.
Earthquake in Haiti: President Buzek opened the January session by expressing sorrow and sympathy for the people of Haiti.
EU's højtstående repræsentant for udenrigsanliggender, Catherine Ashton, orienterede senere på ugen medlemmerne om situationen i Haiti og EU's tilsagn om støtte.

News of Bulgarian candidate, Rumiana Jeleva's decision to drop out of the running came on Tuesday.
Interviewet kan findes her på hjemmesiden.
"The democratic process is working," Jerzy Buzek said.
Græske Nikiforos Diamandouros blev onsdag genvalgt som europæisk ombudsmand (foran den belgiske kandidat Pierre-Yves Monette og italienske kandidat Vittorio Bottoli).
An hearing for the new Bulgarian candidate is scheduled for 3 February.
Ombudsmandens rolle er at undersøge tilfælde af dårlig forvaltning i EU-institutionerne, herunder mangel på gennemsigtighed.
Spanish Presidency : "The EU needs to bet on itself," Spanish Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero told MEPs.
Diamandouros er valgt for den nuværende valgperiode og vil således sidde til 2014.
The economic crisis, energy common market and combating climate change were among the main priorities he mentioned for the Spanish presidency of the Council during the first half of 2010.
Tirsdag drøftede MEP'erne situationen i Iran med EU´s repræsentant for udenrigsanliggender, Catherine Ashton.
Situation in Iran: On Tuesday MEPs discussed the situation in Iran.
De kom under debatten ind på de mange krænkelser af menneskerettighederne samt landets omstridte atomprogram.
The EU's new foreign affairs chief Lady Ashton said Iran's nuclear programme is in breach of its international obligations.
Flere MEP´er efterspurgte yderligere sanktioner mod det iranske regime.
MEPs were concerned about the effect of sanctions for its people and their discontentment about Iran's "use of violence against demonstrators and arbitrary arrests".
Flertallet af MEP`erne gav under onsdagens klimadebat udtryk for skuffelse over de manglende resultater ved klimatopmødet i København.
MEPs also discussed Iraq ahead of parliamentary elections in March, the worrying news on Yemen being a potential training centre for Al-Qaida militants and the human rights situation in Tunisia following the landslide victory of President Ben Ali for a fifth consecutive term.
Under pres fra MEP'ere, gik Ministerrådet sidste år med til at genforhandle en aftale med USA om overførsel af bankoplysninger .

Anna Hedh om kampen mod menneskehandel
Anna Hedh MEP on people trafficking: "More than 80% of the victims are women".
Anna Hedh Handel med kvinder er stadig et stort problem i Europa.
In modern Europe there exists a new type of slavery that involves the trafficking of people for sexual and labour slavery.
De fleste af ofrene er meget unge, nogle af dem mindreårige.
Europol have said the problem did not decrease last year and that 80% of its victims are women.
Svenske Anna Hedh (S&D) og slovakiske Edit Bauer (EPP) har fremsat et mundtligt spørgsmål til Kommissionen om handel med kvinder, som vil blive behandlet under parlamentssamlingen i Strasbourg.
This Tuesday (19 January), Swedish Socialist MEP Anna Hedh and Conservative MEP Edit Bauer from Slovakia will raise the issue in Parliament.
Vi bad Anna Hedh uddybe baggrunden for spørgsmålet.
They will ask questions to the Council of Ministers and the European Commission to try and get anti-trafficking high on Europe's agenda.
Hvad er baggrunden for at sætte fokus på kvindehandel netop nu?
Why are you raising this issue now?
Menneskehandelen er konstant stigende.
Trafficking is constantly increasing.
Selvom slaveriet blev afskaffet for over 200 år siden i Europa, bliver der stadig handlet med tusindvis af mennesker.
Slavery was abolished over 200 years ago in Europe but thousands of people are being sold today.
Menneskehandel omfatter seksuel udnyttelse, tvangsarbejde, slaveri i hjemmet og andre former for udnyttelse, herunder organdonation.
Trafficking includes sexual and labour exploitation, forced labour, domestic servitude and other forms of exploitation including the removal of organs.
Menneskehandel anses for at være en af de mest alvorlige forbrydelser i verden.
It is considered to be one of the most serious crimes worldwide.
Mere end 80 % af ofrene er kvinder.
More than 80% of the victims are women.
Sidste år forslog Kommissionen en fælles ramme for lovgivningen mod menneskehandel.
Last year the Commission suggested a framework for legislation against trafficking in human beings.
Det er derfor, at vi har fremsat det mundtlige spørgsmål.
And this is why we are asking a question and handing in a resolution.
Hvad der skal gøres for at løse problemet?
What has to be done to deal with the problem?
Kommissionen taler om stærkere sanktioner, men vi mener, at der er brug for en mere holistisk tilgang, som omfatter alle politikområder - f.eks. indvandringspolitik.
The Commission likes to talk about a different penalty rate but we also need a holistic approach in all policy making.
Alle medlemsstaterne bør kigge nærmere på problematikken omkring efterspørgsel.
But we also need prevention and to get all EU members to deal with the question of demand.
Hvis der ikke eksisterede nogen efterspørgsel, ville der ikke være noget problem.
If there was no demand there would be no problem.
Jeg vil derfor gerne forsøge at sælge den svenske model om køb af seksuelle ydelser (hvor det er køberen, som bliver straffet).
I would like to sell the Swedish model on the purchase of sexual services (under which the purchaser gets punished).
Det er et følsomt emne, men i Sverige har vi færre problemer med menneskehandel end i resten af EU.
It is sensitive but Sweden has fewer problems with trafficking than the rest of the EU.
Hvilke sanktioner skal der være for dem, som er involveret i menneskehandel?
What sanctions do you want for those involved in human trafficking?
Der skal hårde straffe til, hvis det skal have en effekt.
There must be harsh penalties in order for it to work.
Jeg mener, at der straffen skal være på mindst 10 års fængsel.
I think there must be a penalty of at least 10 years in prison.
Vi taler om personer, der køber og sælger andre mennesker!
We are talking about a person who has bought and sold a human being.
Menneskehandel er en af prioriteterne for det spanske formandskab ...
Trafficking is one of the priorities of the EU Spanish presidency…
Ja, og det er jeg meget tilfreds med.
Yes, and this makes me happy.
Jeg håber, at drøftelserne i Rådet vil udmønte sig i resultater.
I hope that they will succeed with the discussions in the council because previously there have been different views, amongst other things about the levels of penalties.
Der har tidligere været forskellige synspunkter, bl.a. omkring sanktionsniveauet.
I hope the Spanish presidency will unite the council so that we get good legislation.
Jeg håber, at det spanske formandskab vil skabe konsensus i Rådet, så vi kan få en god lovgivning på dette område.
While we are talking people are being exploited and people are exploiting.
Det er meget vigtigt at sikre, at denne lovgivning giver os mulighed for at lægge pres på medlemsstaterne.
This is a big problem and it is very important to make sure that this is legislation that will allow us to put pressure on the member states.
Vi er nødt til at uddanne politi- og domstolspersonale over hele EU.
We also need to educate the police and court personnel across the EU.
Desuden skal ofrene vide, at de er berettiget til støtte, så de ved, at dekan få hjælp fra de nationale myndigheder.
In addition, victims must know that they are entitled to support when they have been exploited, so that they ask for help from the national authorities.
Juridiske tekster er ofte svære at læse, og derfor er det meget vigtigt, at medlemsstaterne iværksætter informationskampagner rettet mod borgerne og ofrene.
Legal texts are often difficult to read and therefore it is important that the member states produce information campaigns to disseminate information for all citizens and victims.
