Krig er kortsynet Ulla SANDBÆK fra JuniBevægelsen understregede, at krig ikke er den rette løsning, og hun troede ikke på det absolut gode eller det absolut onde, sådan som George W. Bush gør.
Caroline LUCAS (Greens/EFA, South East), on the other hand, felt that it was the European Parliament’s duty in the face of mass opposition by the European public to war, to send a clear message that any US military action would be illegal and immoral and she warned such action would be counter productive and only fuel terrorism.
En krig vil styrke den amerikanske våbenindustri og give en enestående lejlighed til at få afprøvet 20 nye våbentyper.
Nevertheless, she felt the EU had a key role to play in promoting alternatives such as compliance with the international nuclear non proliferation treaty and the strengthening of the convention on chemical and biological weapons.
Hvis en krig er uundgåelig, så bør den støttes af FN.
Proinsias DE ROSSA (PES, Dublin) stated that he was clearly against unilateral war against Iraq although he declared he was not a pacifist.
Ulla Sandbæk mente ikke, at Irak udgør nogen øjeblikkelig trussel, og en krig kan få uoverskuelige følger, bl.a. øget terrorisme.
Unilateral war, he said, was the road to anarchy and recalled the old adage that ”war was the failure of politics.”
Ved begyndelsen af mødet spurgte Freddy BLAK , om man havde indført en ny dresscode i Europa-parlamentet.
He said he would be travelling with a group of MEPs to Iraq this weekend and would put as much pressure as possible on to the Iraqi authorities in order to avoid military action.
Baggrunden var, at Freddy Blaks assistent under et møde dagen før var blevet bortvist fra mødet, da han ikke havde slips og jakke på .
He warned not to be too pessimistic about the EU’s position, for example, as compared to September last year, when many thought that the US would act unilaterally, the situation had dramatically improved.
Freddy Blak spurgte, om han måtte være til stede som medlem i mødesalen, selvom han hverken havde slips, skjorte eller jakke på.
He paid tribute to the work of Dr Blix, and said that he was a ”great European” in favour of the EU playing a greater role in resolving the crisis.

Krisen i Irak: Krig eller fred?
Motions for resolutions on the situation in Iraq
Efter debatten om situationen i Irak vedtog Europa-Parlamentet en beslutning, hvori man understreger, at det er vigtigt - under international kontrol - at opnå fuldstændig afvæbning af irakiske masseødelæggende kemiske, bakteriologiske, radiologiske våben og atomvåben, hvis de findes .
Parliament adopted a joint resolution on the situation in Iraq with 287 votes in favour, 209 against and 26 abstentions.
EP gentager sit engagement for fred, demokrati og respekt for menneskerettighederne og folkeretten og understreger behovet for, at FN's Sikkerhedsråds resolutioner gennemføres og efterleves til fulde for at sikre fred og sikkerhed i verden.
Parliament reaffirmed its commitment to peace, democracy and respect for human rights and international law and reiterates the need for full application of and compliance with United Nations Security Council resolutions in order to guarantee international peace and security.
EP anmoder den irakiske regering om at opfylde FN's Sikkerhedsråds resolution 1441 og fortsat give FN's våbeninspektører betingelsesløs og uhindret adgang til at udføre deres inspektioner samt samarbejde fuldt ud og reagere på Hans Blix' bemærkninger i hans rapport.
MEPs call on the Iraqi Government to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 1441 and continue to allow UNMOVIC inspections, unconditionally and with unimpeded access, and to cooperate fully and respond to the remarks made by the Head of UNMOVIC in its report.
Europa-Parlamentet fordømmer Nordkoreas beslutning om at trække sig ud af ikke-spredningsaftalen om kernevåben og opfordrer landet til at ændre denne beslutning.
Parliament adopted a joint resolution condemning North Korea’s decision to withdraw from the Non Proliferation Treaty and calls on North Korea to reverse this decision.
Man opfordrer endvidere Nordkorea til at standse sit uranberigelsesprogram til fremstilling af atomvåben og at gøre dette på en synlig og verificerbar måde.
MEPs also condemn the decision of the Government of Pakistan to provide the North Korean Government with uranium enrichment technology.
EP peger på Nordkoreas fortsatte isolation på grund af dets lederes politik og en række naturkatastrofer, som har medført, at mindst 2 millioner nordkoreanere er døde af sult i de seneste 8 år, og at flere nordkoreanere vil komme til at lide under mangel på mad, fordi atomkrisen har fået bistandsyderne til at tage deres fødevarehjælp op til fornyet overvejelse.
On a more positive note, MEPs welcome the decision of the Council and the Commission to continue with the provision of the European Union's humanitarian aid to North Korea and the Commission's decision to allocate EUR 9.5 million of food aid to North Korea.
EP understreger, at målet for EU's politik over for Nordkorea må være at fremme freden, stabiliteten og den økonomiske udvikling i regionen og at sikre, at de grundlæggende rettigheder, demokratiet og retsstatsprincipperne overholdes.
The House also welcomes recent offers by the United States to supply food and energy aid to North Korea as an incentive to dismantle its nuclear programmes.
FN’s Menneskerettighedskommission:Velforberedt EU-strategi
Press enquiries: Joëlle Fiss (Strasbourg) tel.(33) 3 881 73840 (Brussels) tel.(32-2) 28 41075 e-mail : foreign-press@europarl.eu.int
Den 17. marts til den 25. april holder FN's Menneskerettighedskommission sin 59. samling i Genève.
It deplored the election of Libya to chair the UNCHR this year and strongly regretted the EU Member States' abstention during this vote.
EP vedtog en beslutning, hvori man understreger behovet for en koordineret, sammenhængende og velforberedt strategi fra EU's side forud for, under og efter den 59. samling for at sikre en effektiv og frugtbar deltagelse i arbejdet i FN's Menneskerettighedskommission.
Parliament called on the EU presidency to sponsor or support resolutions during the upcoming session on: China, in particular addressing the situation in Tibet and Xinjang; Russia, in particular addressing the situation in Chechnya; Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, the human rights situation in the Israeli Occupied Territories and in the area under the Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Congo, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Ivory Coast, Sudan, Cuba, Colombia, North Korea, Burma and Nepal.
Libyen I beslutningen beklager EP, at Libyen blev valgt til at lede forhandlingerne under FN-kommissionens samling i år, og man beklager, at EU-medlemslandene afholdt sig fra at stemme under afstemningen.
The European Parliament asks the EU presidency to sponsor a resolution calling on the US immediately to clarify the situation of prisoners in Guantanamo, including those who have lately been transferred to other parts of the US, and to release prisoners against whom there are no retainable charges.
EP fastslår, at overholdelse, fremme og beskyttelse af menneskerettighederne er en del af EU's etiske og juridiske grundlag og en hjørnesten i den europæiske enhed og integritet.
Parliament, furthermore, condemned the use of stoning, all forms of degrading and cruel punishment and all legalised forms of torture, notably as practised in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Sudan and some states of Nigeria.
Congos rigdomme:Ulovlig udnyttelse
It also warned that the fight against terrorism should in no way endanger the protection of fundamental human rights and must be based on international humanitarian law.
Dok.: B5-0053/2003 RC1
MEPs decided to set up an ad hoc delegation to attend the UNCHR session and requested the Council and the European Commission to report back to Parliament on the outcome of the session by May 2003.
FN's endelige rapport om ulovlig udnyttelse af Congos naturressourcer indeholder klare beviser for omfattende svindel med statslige midler via udplyndring af naturressourcer og andre relaterede kriminelle handlinger.
The House adopted a joint resolution by 421 votes in favour, 4 against with 59 abstentions on the illegal exploitation of the wealth of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Det fremgår af FN-rapporten, at tilbagetrækningen af udenlandske militærstyrker er sket samtidig med, at der er blevet udviklet såkaldte militære, politiske og erhvervsmæssige "elitenetværk", der samarbejder om ulovligt at tilegne sig statslige midler og udføre forskellige kriminelle handlinger.
The issue of access to and control of key mineral resources such as diamonds, copper, cobalt, coltan and gold is one of the main causes of the civil war in the DRC.
Diamanter og guld EP vedtog en beslutning, hvori man fastslår, at adgangen til og kontrollen med de vigtigste mineralressourcer som diamanter, kobber, kobolt, coltan og guld udgør en af de vigtigste årsager til borgerkrigen i Congo , og at størstedelen af befolkningen aldrig har fået del i udnyttelsen af disse rigdomme, og at befolkningen nu lever i nød og elendighed.
Parliament condemns the illegal exploitation of the DRC's natural resources by its neighbours and by private international companies, and calls for concrete steps to end this state of affairs.
EP tager afstand fra nabolandenes og de internationale private virksomheders ulovlige udnyttelse af Congos naturressourcer og anmoder om, at der træffes konkrete foranstaltninger for at bringe denne situation til ophør.
The House wants the International Criminal Court, under powers now vested in it, to investigate acts of genocide and crimes against humanity committed in Africa and elsewhere, where such acts were perpetrated to illegally secure natural resources, such as conflict diamonds and timber.
EP anmoder EU's medlemsstater - navnlig de belgiske, tyske, franske og britiske regeringer - om at iværksætte procedurer over for de anklagede, der er angivet med navns nævnelse i FN-rapporten, for deres involvering i udplyndringen af Congo.
MEPs welcome the EU’s accession to the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme for the international trade in rough diamonds, and call on all States involved in this trade to join the Scheme and calls for independent monitoring of compliance with the guidelines concerning the trade in diamonds.
Folkedrab EP opfordrer den Internationale Straffedomstol til at undersøge de sager om folkedrab o g forbrydelser mod menneskeheden , som er begået i Afrika, når sådanne handlinger er begået for ulovligt at tilegne sig naturressourcer som fx. "konfliktdiamanter og -tømmer".
Finally, the House calls, with a view to compliance with the principle of good governance, for those persons found guilty of pillaging the resources of the DRC to be dismissed from their posts and to be excluded from office during the transitional period which will precede the establishment of democracy.
Sulten i verden:Afskaffelse af handelsbarrierer for fattigste u-lande
Motions for resolutions on world hunger and the elimination of barriers to trade with the poorest countries
EP er dybt bekymret over de truende hu manitære katastrofer verden over og man opfordrer EU og andre donorer til ufortøvet og med væsentlige bidrag til at reagere på den af Verdensfødevareprogrammet iværksatte "Africa Hunger Alert"-kampagne og intensivere fødevarebistanden og den humanitære bistand til de truede regioner samt til at støtte mere langsigtede bestræbelser på at opnå fødevaresikkerhed.
Parliament adopted a joint resolution on world hunger and the elimination of barriers to trade with the poorest countries, expressing its concern at the looming humanitarian disasters throughout the world, it calls on the EU and other donors to respond promptly and substantially to the Africa Hunger Alert campaign launched by the World Food Programme.
HIV/AIDS Europa-Parlamentet opfordrer EU og andre donorer til straks at tage fat på de frygtelige samfundsøkonomiske følger af HIV/AIDS-epidemien - navnlig i det sydlige Afrika - og til at fremskynde den langsomme udbetaling af de hertil afsatte midler på den globale HIV/AIDS-fond.
Parliament wants the EU and other donors to help strengthen logistical capacity in the regions at risk - such as road tolls, importation/customs procedures and third party transport arrangements - in order to ensure the smooth and timely delivery of food aid.
EP understreger, at kampen mod fattigdom og fødevaresikkerhed må gribe fat i de strukturelle årsager til fattigdom i u-landene og fremme adgang til jord, vand og biodiversitetsressourcer samt lokal støtte til små bæredygtige landbrug.
With regard to southern Africa, the House expresses its continuing concern at the magnitude of the food crisis facing Zimbabwe and other countries in southern Africa.
Endvidere bør man eftergive gælden , som sluger over 40 % af de mindst udviklede landes BNP.
MEPs deplore the fact that the Mugabe land redistribution programme has only served to worsen the region's food crisis, by triggering the collapse of Zimbabwe's agricultural production and economy.
Fri markedsadgang EP udtrykker tilfredshed med Rådets afgørelse om at give fri adgang til EU's marked for alle varer undtagen våben fra de mindst udviklede lande , og man opfordrer alle industrilande til at være rede til senere at gøre yderligere indrømmelser med hensyn til markedsadgang for landbrugsprodukter fra udviklingslandene.
Concerning the EU’s trade policy with developing countries, Parliament welcomes the Council's decision to give free access to the European Union market for all products, except arms, from the least developed countries, emphasises that the full application of this initiative by the end of 2003.
Regnskabsgodkendelse for 2000:Opfølgning fra Kommissionen
MEPs also call for the other developed countries, in particular the United States, to take similar measures.

Decharge 2000: Opfølgning
(PE-CONS 3676/2002 – C5-0598/2002 – 2000/0331(COD))
Efter EP's godkendelse af EU-regnskabet for 2000 har EU-Kommissionen fulgt op på bemærkningerne til den EP-beslutning, der følger med regnskabsgodkendelsen.
Parliament voted to approve new legislation, agreed with Council last December, which will give the public a greater role in planning permission decisions, environmental impact assessment and pollution control rules affecting, for example, new airport terminals and, in some cases, military projects and civil emergency measures.
I en betænkning af den irske PPE'er John McCARTIN støtter EP Kommissionens opfølgningsrapport , og man glæder sig over, at Kommissionen har gjort en stor indsats for på tilfredsstillende måde at besvare og kommentere EP's spørgsmål og bemærkninger.
Thanks to the efforts of Parliament's delegation to the conciliation negotiations, the new directive will ensure that national defence projects are no longer automatically excluded from the EU environmental impact assessment directive.
Uudnyttede bevillinger EP mener, at de uudnyttede bevillinger - budgetoverskud - som udgør 14 % af EU-budgettet for 2000 ikke bliver behandlet seriøst, og man anmoder derfor Kommissionen om at arbejde for at absorbere dette overskud, der er ved at blive et tilbagevendende problem .
In exchange, Parliament agreed with Council that plans and projects drawn up under specific environmental directives (e.g. on hazardous waste) should be exempt from the new legislation if they are intended solely for national defence purposes or civil emergencies.
Proceduren for regnskabsafslutning blev indført i 1970 og undergik de første væsentlige ændringer i 1996.
It also opens up specific EU directives, including those on batteries and accumulators, hazardous waste and packaging, to public consultation.
EP erkender, at regnskabsafslutningsproceduren er et værktøj, der sikrer systematisk kontrol med EU-udgifterne.
The Member States will have two years to implement the new directive - steered through Parliament by Eija-Riitta KORHOLA (EPP-ED, FIN) - after it enters into force.
Offentlig adgang til miljøoplysninger:Århus-konventionen

Heidi Anneli HAUTALA (Greens/EFA, FIN)
Forligsudvalgets fælles udkast til Europa-Parlamentets og Rådets direktiv om mulighed for offentlig deltagelse i forbindelse med udarbejdelse af visse planer og programmer på miljøområdet og om ændring af Rådets direktiv 85/337/EØF og 96/61/EF for så vidt angår offentlig deltagelse og adgang til klage og domstolsprøvelse
Report on the joint text approved by the Conciliation Committee for a European Parliament and Council directive on the quality of petrol and diesel fuels and amending Directive 98/70/EC (PE-CONS 3677/2002 – C5-0608/2002 – 2001/0107(COD))
EP godkendte kompromisteksten fra Forligsudvalget om et EU-direktiv om offentlig adgang til miljøoplysninger.
The directive, agreed between negotiating teams from Parliament and Council last December, is part of a raft of EU legislation designed to improve air quality across Europe.
Formålet er at bringe EU-lovgivningen i overensstemmelse med Århus-konventionen fra 1998 om adgang til oplysninger, offentlig deltagelse i beslutningsprocesser samt adgang til klage og domstolsprøvelse på miljøområdet.
The legislation, steered through Parliament by the Finnish Green MEP Heidi HAUTALA , makes "zero-sulphur" fuels (defined as having a maximum sulphur content of 10 mg/kg (parts per million) mandatory from 2009 - two years earlier than the deadline originally proposed by the Commission - subject to confirmation of fuel quality requirements in a review in 2005.
I betænkningen af den finske PPE'er Eija-Riitta KORHOLA fastslås det, at forligsresultatet er tilfredsstillende for EP.
At Parliament's insistence, the timetable for requiring off-road machinery and tractors to use sulphur-free fuel has been aligned with the timetable for on-road vehicles.
Man beklager dog medlemsstaternes modvilje mod at indføre krav, som er mere ambitiøse end Århus-konventionens, på EU-niveau.
Another of Parliament's achievements is a reference in the text to fiscal measures "at the appropriate national or Community level" as incentives to introduce cleaner fuels.

Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation on aid for poverty diseases (HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis) in developing countries
Procedure: Den lovgivningsmæssige procedure - Tredjebehandling (***III)
Procedure : Codecision procedure (1st reading)
EP vedtog en kompromistekst fra Forligsudvalget om et direktiv om nedsættelse af svovlindholdet i benzin og dieselolie.
Poverty-related diseases weigh heavily on development policies, with much good work in recent years being wiped out by the spread of AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.
Kompromiset indebærer bla., at
In response to this situation, Parliament's is calling for a proactive EU policy to combat these diseases.
Medlemslandene skal sikre, at adgangen til benzin med lavt svovlindhold fra begyndelsen af 2005 er passende fordelt geografisk,
An increase is needed so that EU policies to combat these diseases are properly carried out and also to enable the EU to make a major contribution to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.
Der tages højde for følgerne af iblanding af biobrændstoffer og
Only 10% of research activity is devoted to the diseases which account for 90% of the world's ailments.
Medlemslandene opfordres til at fremme anvendelsen af skatteincitamenter
Regarding the budget of €351 million for the programme supported by Parliament, the Commission said it was unable to accept this amount due to budgetary constraints.
HIV/AIDS, malaria og tuberkulose:Fattigdomsbetingede sygdomme
In addition, the House stresses the right of members of the WTO to use the flexibility allowed by TRIPS to protect public health and to ensure access to medicines to all.
Udviklingslandene er ramt af disse sygdomme i "uforholdsmæssig høj grad".
It is particularly critical of the Commission’s failure to recover some €2.245bn illegally paid out of the budget.
90 % af alle HIV/AIDS-smittede lever i u-landene, heraf ca. 70 % i afrikanske lande syd for Sahara.
The House remains concerned about incidents of fraud, especially in the agricultural sector.

"Generiske" lægemidler: Billig medicin til de fattigste u-lande?
Commission statement on authorisation to use generic medicines in the WTO
Den svenske PPE'er Anders WIJKMAN mente, at de fattigste u-lande kæmper en ulige kamp, idet mange lægemiddelproducenter ikke ser nogen profit i at hjælpe disse lande.
Anders WIJKMAN (S), for the EPP-ED group, recalled at Parliament's last plenary session, MEPs had passed a resolution supporting aid for developing countries in order to combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.
Ufine interesser Det britiske labourmedlem Eryl McNALLY var af den opfattelse, at de lande, der er imod Doha-erklæringen, de er i ond tro - og den ensidige amerikanske holdning er svær at forstå.
There was, he said, a need to override the patent rights of the pharmaceutical companies concerned and to reach an agreement through the WTO.
Folkesundhed er vigtigere end patenter, men USA vil ikke give opmærksomhed til medicinalindustriens ufine interesser.
In view of the fact that 3 million people alone could die from Aids this year, there was a pressing need for an agreement and indeed for an increased budget to tackle this disease.
USA: Ensidighed uden logik!
This was unacceptable, she said.
Den britiske liberale Nicholas CLEGG beklagede, at USA ensidigt havde blokeret Doha-aftalen, og det er en ensidighed uden logik, hvilket er utilgiveligt.
Replying to the debate, Pascal Lamy emphasised that there was still a need to settle the question of "compulsory licencing" or rights over patented drugs, especially with regard to imports and exports.
Mord på politichef i Baskerlandet
Hence the need to find a solution for these countries.
Han havde været aktivt medlem af det spanske socialistparti og aktivt medlem i det baskiske borgerinitiativ BASTA YA!, som havde modtaget Sakharov prisen i 2000.
He was also an active member of the Basque citizen's initiative BASTA YA! (enough is enough), Sakharov prize winner in 2000, with whom he came to Parliament to attend the Sakharov ceremony.
Cox fastslog, at EP står skulder ved skulder med de, der tappert bekæmper terrorismen i Spanien.
He said the European Parliament stood shoulder to shoulder both with the victims and their families and with those who are bravely combating terrorism in Spain.
EP holdt et minuts stilhed til ære for den myrdede politichef.
Debate on Iraq scheduled for Wednesday
Nu havde Freddy Blak købt et nyt sæt tøj, og han håbede, at resultatet var tilfredsstillende.
Parliament thus will be able to set out its position ahead of the extraordinary European Council (meeting of Heads of State and Government) to be held on Monday, 17 February 2003, in Brussels under the Greek Presidency.
Blak ville sende regningen til Cox.
Proinsias DE ROSSA (PES, Dublin) welcomed the decision to hold a debate on Wednesday and said that international law as established by the UN should be respected by all sides.
Ole B. SØRENSEN fra Venstre havde netop været i Uganda, og han pegede på den forfærdelige tragedie, som foregår i den nordlige del af landet.
Patricia McKENNA (Greens/EFA, Dublin) following her recent visit to Iraq with a group of MEPs underlined that despite some criticism of the trip, she had spoken out against the Iraqi regime and in support of the UN.
