Det drejer sig om de globale emissioner fra lufttransport, der har en hastigt voksende indvirkning på klimaændringerne, hvilket vækker bekymring i EP.
Expressing its concern about the rapidly growing impact of global emissions from air transport on climate change, the House asked the Assembly of the International Civil Aviation not to adopt at its forthcoming session in Montreal resolution A35/WP77, Appendix I, which explicitly rules out unilateral action to introduce emission-related levies on aviation.
EP mener, at dette vil give bagslag, når det drejer sig om integreret miljø- og transportpolitik, og at EU vil miste sin ret til at tage initiativ til lovgivning på området.
It constituted a retrograde step for ICAO and would undermine this organisation's credibility in the emissions field.
EP er derfor af den opfattelse, at den foreslåede ændring af resolutionen, der sigter mod en generel undtagelse af international luftfart fra emissionsbestemte afgifter, er uacceptabel, udgør et tilbageskridt for ICAO og vil undergrave organisationens troværdighed på emissionsområdet.
There was strong support for Council, Commission and Member States in registering a reservation against excluding economic measures for developing a more sustainable aviation policy.
1) at vedtage nye og strengere standarder for NOx-emissioner, 2) at gennemføre en åben international ordning for handel med emissioner og 3) at udvikle og senere indføre internationale afgifter baseret på CO2-emissioner.
MEPs also asked the representatives of EU Member States at the Assembly to press for urgent additional progress by ICAO in aviation environmental protection measures, as regards the adoption of new, more stringent standards for NOx emissions, the implementation of an international open emissions trading scheme as well as the development and eventual introduction of international CO2 emissions-rated levies.
Endelig mener EP, at Kommissionen bør have sæde i ICAO-forsamlingen.
Parliament also took the view that the Commission should have a seat in the ICAO Assembly.
EP vedtog med 542 stemmer mod 15, medens 15 undlod at stemme et beslutningsforslag, hvori man opfordrer Kommissionen og medlemsstaterne til at anvende forsigtighedsprincippet som det vigtigste princip på det kommende CITES-møde i Thailand (CITES = Konventionen om international handel med udryddelsestruede og vilde dyr og planter).
In a resolution adopted by 499 votes in favour to 20 against with 26 abstentions, MEPs lambasted the Belarus regime of President LUKASHENKO , in particular its "indiscriminate attacks on the media, journalists, members of the opposition, human rights activists (...) as manifested through arbitrary arrests, ill-treatment of detainees, disappearances, politically motivated persecution" .
Det 13. møde mellem parterne i CITES finder sted fra den 2. til den 14 oktober 2004 i Bangkok.
MEPs call for the parliamentary elections of 17 October to be "free, fair, equal, accountable and transparent" , and ask the EU Council presidency to allow a delegation from Parliament to monitor these elections.
CITES er den største eksisterende globale aftale om bevarelse af vilde dyr og planter, der har til formål at forhindre overudnyttelse som følge af international handel med vilde plante- og dyrearter.
Emphasising the importance of these elections "for the reestablishment of democracy" , Parliament urges the people of Belarus to participate.
Der er 166 deltagere i CITES, herunder EU's 25 medlemsstater.
It strongly criticises President Lukashenko's attempts to seek an extension of his presidential term by referendum, contrary to the provisions of the Belarus constitution.
Situationen i Republikken Belarus
Motion for resolutions on the situation in Iraq
Endvidere tilskynder EP det belarussiske folk til at deltage i det kommende parlamentsvalg, da valget har stor betydning for genetablering af demokrati i Belarus.
In a last minute amendment made on the floor of the House, MEPs also specifically called for the release of the UK citizen kidnapped in the early hours of this morning, 16 September 2004.
EP kritiserer Lukashenkos forsøg på gennem en folkeafstemning at få forlænget sin embedsperiode, og opfordrer indtrængende Lukaskenko til at overholde bestemmelserne i den belarussiske forfatning.
The Parliament urges the Presidency of the Council, the High Representative for CFSP and the Commission, in co-operation with the Member States concerned, to take " an immediate and concrete initiative for the release of hostages ".
Endelig opfordrer EP de belarussiske myndigheder til øjeblikkeligt at løslade Valery Levonevsky, Alexander Vasilyev og Mikhail Larinich samt alle andre fængslede politiske modstandere af regimet.
MEPs also call on the new Iraqi government authorities and the religious communities in the country to condemn strongly, clearly and unequivocally every form of terrorism.
EP understreger endnu en gang, at "yderligere udvikling af EU's forbindelser med Belarus også fremover vil afhænge af fremskridt hen imod demokratisering og reform i landet".
The resolution reaffirms the EU's determination to assist the transformation of Iraq and its reintegration into the international community as a " sovereign, independent and democratic partner country ".
Den humanitære situation i Sudan
Motion for a resolution on the humanitarian situation in Sudan
EP henviser til, at kampe, der også omfattede angreb på civile, resulterede i mindst 30.000 døde , over 1 million interne flygtninge i Sudan og over 200.000 flygtninge i Tchad.
MEPs recalled that the refugees and IDPs its delegation met in Chad said that they all belonged to non-Arab tribes.
Beslutningen blev vedtaget med 588 stemmer mod 66, medens 16 undlod at stemme.
MEPs were prudent in the use of the term so as not to devalue it but they underline the gravity of the crimes committed against humanity.
Mord, voldtægt og plyndring!
MEPs strongly condemned the Sudanese government for its support of the militia and the impunity accorded to them.
På trods af våbenhvilen, der blev underskrevet den 8. april 2004, fortsætter Sudans regering med at støtte militser og såkaldte "folkelige forsvarsstyrker", som myrder civile, voldtager kvinder og plyndrer .
The European Parliament delegation was able to establish that the government's forces continued to violate the cease-fire by using the Sudanese airforce to support the militias' attacks against the civilian population.
EP mener, at Sudan er præget af en række samfunds og regioners - herunder Darfur - vedvarende underudvikling samt økonomisk og politisk marginalisering, og at det er i denne situation konflikten har rod.
They also recall that the governance of Sudan has, for decades, been characterised by persistent mismanagement, by underdevelopment and by the economic and political marginalisation of certain communities and regions and that this situation is at the root of the conflict in Darfur, as is the undemocratic nature of the present regime.
EP kræver en politisk løsning i stedet for en militær løsning som den eneste måde, hvorpå der kan sættes en stopper for konflikten.
MEPs stated that there were in favour of a political solution rather than a military one.
289 mio. euro EU har mobiliseret finansielle ressourcer til humanitær hjælp m.m. på 287,8 mio. euro .
They therefore call on the Sudanese government to invest more in the negotiations with rebel forces.
Heraf udgør EU-midlerne 180,8 mio. euro, og resten kommer fra medlemslandene.
For the South, MEPs state that the peace agreement, following the Naivasha (Kenya) process must be finalised.
Irak:Frie og fair valg i januar 2005!
MEPs were particularly concerned at the plight of women in Sudan, where many have been raped and have lost children.
Situationen i Irak
Trade in endangered species
Efter Irak-debatten vedtog Europa-Parlamentet en beslutning om situation i Irak.
Parliament adopted a resolution by 542 votes in favour, 15 against and 15 abstentions calling on the Commission and the Member States to use the precautionary principle as the leading principle in the next CITES meeting in Thailand.
EP fordømmer på det skarpeste alle terrorangreb mod civile, religiøse mindretal, politistyrker og soldater fra den multinationale styrke, gidseltagning blandt journalister og NGO-personale, og de grusomme mord, der er blevet begået og stadig er ustraffede.
The 13th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) is to be held from 2 to 14 October 2004 in Bangkok.
EP mener, at alle midler bør sættes ind på at stoppe sådanne forsøg på ved brug af vold at svække den midlertidige regering og det internationale samfund, der er fast besluttede på at videreføre den demokratiske proces .
CITES is the largest global wildlife conservation agreement which tries to prevent overexploitation due to international trade of wild fauna and flora species.
EP vedtog beslutningen med 533 stemmer for, 43 imod medens 26 undlod at stemme.
It has altogether 166 parties, including the 25 Member States of the EU.
FN-resolution 1546 EP noterer sig den enstemmigt vedtagne FN-resolution 1546 fra FN's Sikkerhedsråd, hvori det bekræftes, at den irakiske overgangsregering, der tiltrådte den 30. juni 2004, er suveræn, og EP støtter at resolutionen gennemføres.
MEPs also want the Commission and the Member States to ensure that any decisions aimed at enhanced co-ordination between CITES and other bio-diversity-related conventions do not undermine the nature of CITES as a global conservation agreement.
EP støtter Kommissionens forslag om at afsætte yderligere 200 mio. euro i EU-bidrag til genopbygningen af Irak i 2005 .

Burma:Krænkelser af menneskerettighederne
Situation in Burma/ASEM - No to Burma participation
Situationen i Burma/ASEM
Joint motion for a resolution on the situation in Burma/ASEM
Krav om demokratiske fremskridt EP henviser til, at Burmas befolkning udsættes for menneskerettighedskrænkelser, herunder tvangsarbejde, forfølgelse af systemkritikere, tortur, udskrivning af børnesoldater, overgreb fra regeringsstyrkernes side mod kvinder og børn, der tilhører etniske mindretal samt tvangsforflytninger.
The House insists that the EU's Common Policy on Burma should be strengthened immediately, and, in addition to the measures proposed by the Council, should also ban the import of goods and services from enterprises owned by the military, military personnel and their associates, and ban the import of strategically important goods from sectors of the economy under monopoly, such as gems and timber.
EP insisterer derfor fortsat på, at Burma ikke bør deltage i ASEM V-topmødet, og at landet ikke bør blive medlem af ASEM, før der sker en "uigenkaldelig politisk ændring i landet hen imod demokrati".
It calls on travel agencies and independent tour operators in the EU to stop promoting and selling tourist visits to Burma.
EP kræver øjeblikkelig løsladelse af og fuldstændig bevægelses- og ytringsfrihed for Daw Aung San Suu Kyi samt andre politiske fanger, der holdes fængslet af SPDC (statsrådet for fred og udvikling).
MEPs call for an EU envoy to be appointed to work towards securing the release of Aung San Suu Kyi and freedom for the National League for Democracy (NLD).
I den forbindelse kræver EP, at der udnævnes en EU-udsending, der skal arbejde på at få løsladt Daw Aung San Suu Kyi og sikre frihed for NLD (Den Nationale Liga for Demokrati).
MEPs call on the UN to impose targeted sanctions on Burma, on the UN Security Council to address the situation in Burma as a matter of urgency, and on UN Envoy Razali to be given unrestricted access to Aung San Suu Kyi.
Vojvodina: Chikane mod mindretal
Harassment of minorities in Vojvodina
Chikane mod mindretal i Vojvodina
Joint motion for a resolution on the harassment of minorities in Vojvodina
EP er bekymret for, at der, selvom disse episoder kan opfattes som lokale eller isolerede, er fare for, at de kan eskalere på forskellig vis.
The House call on the Regional Assembly of Vojvodina to urgently address these issues and to establish a political climate that assists in addressing the concerns and aspirations of all citizens and ensuring safety and the rule of law in the region.
EP opfordrer EP-Delegationen for Forbindelserne med Sydøsteuropa til at aflægge et undersøgelsesbesøg i provinsen og anmoder Rådet og Kommissionen om i højere grad at følge udviklingen i Vojvodina.
Parliament calls on its Delegation for South-East Europe to send a fact-finding mission to the province and to report back to the Foreign Affairs Committee and its Subcommittee on Human Rights, with regard to further action to be taken.
Endelig opfordrer EP myndighederne i Republikken Serbien og Statsforbundet Serbien og Montenegro til at betragte disse voldelige handlinger som værende ulovlige i henhold til gældende lovgivning og til omgående at gribe ind.
Finally, MEPs call on the Council and the Commission also closely to monitor developments in Vojvodina and to use the EU's political leverage to raise this issue with all authorities in the Republic of Serbia and the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro.
Maldiverne:Ophævelse af undtagelsestilstand?
Situation in the Maldives - call to restore human rights
Den politiske situation i Maldiverne
Joint motion for a resolution on the political situation in the Maldives
Debat og Beslutninger : 06-10-2004
Daily Notebook : 06-10-2004
Mødet med EP fandt sted i den såkaldte formandskonference - dvs. EP-formanden samt de politiske gruppeledere i EP - og hvor samtlige MEP'er havde mulighed for at deltage.
During the ensuing debate Parliament's political group leaders and other MEPs had the opportunity to express their views.
Ingen dato - ingen garanti for medlemskab!
Parliament will then adopt a report before the European Council takes its decision in December.
EU-Kommissionen har ikke fastsat nogen dato for, hvornår tiltrædelsesforhandlingerne med Tyrkiet skal indledes, og det er nu op til det Europæiske Råd at afgøre dette den 17. december.
As regards " the essential documents on the organisation of democracy ", Mr Prodi said, " Turkey has reached the level required by European standards in such matters, or will do so once the new Criminal Code enters into force."
Kommissionen gør det klart, at optagelsesforhandlingerne med Tyrkiet kan afbrydes med kort varsel, hvis Tyrkiet stopper sin politiske reformproces.
"The report draws attention to the situation as regards torture, women's rights, trade union rights, religious freedom and relations between civil and military authorities."
"Nødbremse" for indvandring!
The Commission believes that "Turkey's accession to the EU may make a positive contribution to the Union.
Kommissionen lægger en dæmper på frygten for en stor indvandring fra Tyrkiet ved at indføre en permanent "nødbremse" eller "håndbremse" , som landene kan trække i, hvis indvandringen fra Tyrkiet viser sig at blive for stor.
Mr Prodi concluded by appealing to Turkey, its people and its government to show determination in pursuing further reforms and wisely conducting the accession process.
Gevinst med Tyrkiet!
Outgoing enlargement Commissioner Günter VERHEUGEN said that today's decisions by the Commission had been reached on the basis of a broad consensus.
Romano Prodi sagde, at Kommissionen har besluttet at anbefale, at EU indleder optagelsesforhandlinger med Tyrkiet, som stort set lever op til de politiske "Københavns-kriterier" fra juni 1993.
Over the past five years, the Commission had come to cooperate with Turkey in such a way that it has changed rapidly and has ceased to be a country where human rights are violated.
Svaret er positivt, men vi er tilbageholdne og forsigtige .
The Commission's reports are no more than recommendations.
Resultatet af udvidelsesforhandlingerne er ikke givet på forhånd , men vi forestiller os, at fremtiden vil være fælles - og det vil være en gevinst at få Tyrkiet med i EU .
The Commission has given a positive response because Turkey's legal framework corresponds to the requirements of a modern state governed by the rule of law, although it is true that in practice there are still shortcomings.
Tyrkiets optagelse er en stor udfordring, som giver mulighed for vækst og fremgang .
However, Mr Verheugen stressed, never in any of the 13 previous accession processes has full, 100% implementation been a prerequisite for starting negotiations.
Det vil skabe fred, sikkerhed og samarbejde.
If it had been, it would have been impossible to start negotiations with any of them.
Afbrydelse af forhandlingerne?
Even on the brink of accession there were still demands which needed to be met.
Prodi understregede, at EU vil have garanti for at fremskridtene fortsættes og gennemføres fuldt ud.
It had no objections, as it didn't expect this still to be a problem in 12 or 15 years time.
Tyrkiet har nu den retlige ramme, som svarer til de krav EU har stillet, men der er mangler i gennemførelsen.
After this, two years will follow in which a number of obligations still need to be fulfilled, something which will be monitored closely.
Hvis kravet havde været 100 % implementering af lovgivningen, var ingen af de 10 nye medlemslande blevet medlemmer.
Should one of these countries or both be unable to meet the requirements, a special safeguard clause will enable accession to be postponed by one year.
Verheugen fastslog, at Kommissionen lægger vægt på 3 ting:
Negotiations with Croatia can commence next year, Mr Verheugen said.
at Tyrkiet fortsætter de politiske reformer med støtte fra EU,
Hans-Gert POETTERING (DE) stressed that a large majority of the EPP-ED group supported what he was about to say.
at man fastsætter en snæver ramme for optagelsesforhandlingerne med Tyrkiet, og hvor der er mulighed for at suspendere forhandlingerne og
He emphasised that the EU would change fundamentally upon the accession of Turkey, with its voluminous population, borders which stretch far into Asia and a different culture and standard of life.
inddragelse af civilsamfundet - dvs. borgerne - med en dialog om politik, kultur, sociale forhold og religion.
Mr Poettering acknowledged the reforms launched in Turkey, but said that much of what had been put to paper has not been put into practice yet.
Sikkerhedsklausul for tyrkisk indvandring!
He accused Mr Verheugen of a lack of objectivity.
Verheugen understregede, at man kan forestille sig en permanent sikkerhedsklausul for tyrkisk indvandring .
At the next two EPP summits, said Mr Poettering, he would urge government leaders to ensure the outcome of accession negotiations was left open.
Der er ingen garanti for resultatet af optagelsesforhandlingerne, som dog bør gennemføres i god tro.
It should be possible to deny EU membership, but offer a different form of cooperation, i.e. a privileged partnership.
Men der er en risiko for, at optagelsesforhandlingerne ikke ender med tyrkisk EU-medlemskab.
Speaking for the Socialist Group, Martin SCHULZ (DE) agreed that this was a fundamental decision which would set the direction for the future of the EU.
Man har dog en "supersikkerhedsklausul", så man kan udsætte medlemskabet, hvis fremskridtene går i stå.
Nevertheless, he said this enlargement process must be regarded as special.
Verheugen er ikke objektiv!
"What does this say to the 20 million European Muslims?" he asked.
Under den politiske ordførerrunde sagde formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert PÖTTERING , at der i alle politiske grupper hersker forskellige synspunkter om tyrkisk EU-medlemskab.
Three points should be borne in mind in the negotiations, he believed: their opening was no guarantee of success; there would need to be close scrutiny of progress on human rights matters; the process should lead to greater harmony between the Christian, Muslim and Jewish faiths.
Flertallet i PPE-gruppen er af den opfattelse, at hvis Tyrkiet kommer med i EU, så får vi et helt andet EU .
Two thirds of Turkey's citizens apparently believed that the EU would not admit them.
Kulturelt set bliver det en anden union, og det bliver det også med hensyn til levestandard.
To Mr Poettering, he said it was time to have confidence in the Europe that had been built on a foundation of human rights, and to realise this would not be dramatically changed.
Det må vi gøre os klart.
There would be many positive developments in the EU and in Turkey before 2014, he said.
Verheugen siger, at der ikke foregår systematisk tortur, men de udtalelser er kyniske og forkerte!
"As the EU reconciled differences between France and Germany - the Rhine miracle - and between Germany and Poland - the Oder miracle - there could now be a Bosphorus miracle, reconciling Europe to Turkey" .
Verheugen er ikke objektiv.
Open-ended negotiations were not the answer: Turkey had applied for membership.
Man kunne også vælge et "privilegeret partnerskab" , hvor EU arbejder som partner/ven med Tyrkiet.
Francis WURTZ (FR), leader of the GUE/NGL group, gave a favourable reaction to the Commission.
Formanden for den socialistiske gruppe, den tyske SPD'er Martin SCHULZ pegede på, at vi står over for en afgørende beslutning, som har betydning for al fremtid .
Jens-Peter BONDE (DK) spoke for the Independence and Democracy group.
EU bør fortsætte med sit fredsværk, og det kan vi gøre bedre med Tyrkiet - end uden Tyrkiet.
"The Commission says Turkey is ready for the EU," he said, "but is the EU ready for Turkey?"
Han var derfor glad for Kommissionens henstilling om at indlede optagelsesforhandlinger med Tyrkiet.
He believed the adoption of the draft constitution and the accession of Turkey were mutually incompatible.
Forhandlingerne skal kunne suspenderes , hvis reformprocessen i Tyrkiet går i stå.
He said that a generous effort should be made to improve living standards in poor areas, notably South Eastern Turkey, which was comparable to part of Africa.
Vi kan i dag ikke overskue, hvad der kommer ud af forhandlingerne om 10-15 år, men Tyrkiet skal have denne chance, sluttede Martin Schulz.
Finally, he strongly criticised the human rights situation in Turkey and accused Prime Minister Erdogan of trivialising the question of torture, which was still widespread.
Flertallet i den liberale gruppe støtter dette, men et mindretal i den liberale gruppe er imod.
Turkey was living up to its side of the bargain - the EU should start negotiations, even if there were differing views in his group on what the outcome should be.
Graham Watson henviste til Oostlander-betænkningen, hvori Europa-Parlamentet fastslår, at EU's værdier bygger på den kristne tro, men vi har ikke monopol på dette.
However, he was critical of anyone who suggested that conservative or traditional viewpoints in Europe were necessarily intolerant and could be ignored.
Derfor er der ingen principielle indvendinger imod, at Tyrkiet - som er et muslimsk land - kan blive medlem af EU .
He said the EU had shown that by respecting the " dignity of difference" people could come together without losing their distinct identities.
Graham Watson understregede, at Tyrkiet bør behandles som alle andre ansøgerlande, men der er ingen garanti for, at forhandlingerne ender med tyrkisk EU-medlemskab.
Philip CLAEYS (BE), a non-aligned MEP, opposed opening negotiations with Turkey, saying "the unthinkable is becoming a reality," citing the occupation of Cyprus, the non-recognition of the Armenian genocide and the non-respect of ethnic minorities in Turkey.
Det vigtige er, at vi finder løsninger, så kristendommen, islam og jødedommen kan leve fredeligt sammen , sluttede den liberale gruppeformand.
He said that it would cost the Union, if Turkey were to accede, €28 billion per year from 2025.
"Underet ved Bosporus"?
"How will this be financed?
Den tyske grønne Daniel COHN-BENDIT fastslog, at flertallet i den grønne gruppe går ind for indledning af optagelsesforhandlinger med Tyrkiet.
Elmar BROK (EPP-ED, DE), Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee, said that the Oostlander report, which Parliament had adopted, had recommended full respect for the criteria.
