Rule 34 refers only to agreements considered significant, and in the light of this significance, the Rules lay down the procedure to be followed by Parliament and the Community institutions in negotiating such agreements.
Formanden. — Kære kolleger, mine damer og herrer, det glæder mig at byde velkommen til en delegation af repræsentanter for Den Føderale Tjekkoslovakiske Forsamling, ledet af næstformanden for Nationaliteternes Kammer, Jan Sokol, der har taget plads i den officielle loge.
PRESIDENT. — Ladies and gentlemen, I have pleasure in welcoming a delegation of ten representatives from the Czechoslovak Federal Assembly, led by Vice-President, Mr Jan Sokol, who have taken their seats in the official gallery.
På grund af det fremskredne tidspunkt foreslår jeg, at vi erklærer forhandlingen for afsluttet og går direkte over til afstemningerne.
As a result of the agreements reached at the Paris Summit, there will a meeting of experts lasting nineteen days next June in Geneva — from 1 to 19 June — to discuss the subject of racism and xenophobia.
Jeg gør opmærksom på, at delegationen for første gang er i Strasbourg; anledningen er det andet møde med Europa-Parlamentets Delegation for Forbindelserne med Tjekkoslovakiet, hvis formand er Kirsten Jensen.
This meeting will have an officially approved agenda which is so wide and covers such extensive areas of responsibility that I will refrain from reading it out to Parliament.
Jeg beklager, at vi ikke har kunnet udtale os om et af de største upsættelige spørgsmål i denne måned, nemlig forureningskatastrofen i Middelhavet.
Our own experts, the representatives of the Committee of Inquiry into Racism and Xenophobia, for example, should be in Geneva. The European Parliament as an institution cannot be excluded from something so 'significant'.
Deres tilstedeværelse under Parlamentets forhandling om fru Randizo-Plaths betænkning om associeringsaftaler med landene i Mellem- og Østeuropa vidner om Deres lands og Den Føderale Forsamlings store interesse for udvikling af forbindelserne med Det Europæiske Fællesskab
Your presence here, at a time when we are considering the Randzio-Plath report on association agreements with the countries of central and eastern Europe, testifies to the special interest of your country and the Federal Assembly in strengthening relations with the European Community.
Jeg håber, at Deres ophold i Strasbourg vil give Dem et indtryk af Europa-Parlamentets rolle og betydning i forbindelse med Det Europæiske Fælles skabs demokratiske beslutningsproces.
I trust your stay in Luxembourg will contribute to your appreciation of the European Parliament's role and importance in the European Community's democratic decisionmaking process.
Formanden. — Jeg beklager det selv, men De kan lige så vel som jeg se, hvad klokken er. Vi kan ikke spilde mere tid nu på spørgsmål til Forretningsordenen, for så vil alle disse beslutningsforslag bort falde.
And should anyone doubt that our institutions have been involved in these agreements in the past, they bear the signature of Mr Jacques Delors and the President of the Italian Republic, the former in his capacity as President of the European Commission and the latter as President-in-Office of the Council.
Ramírez Heredia (S). — (ES) Fru formand, jeg vil forsøge ganske kort at redegøre for den konflikt, jeg befinder mig i angående fortolkningen af nogle artikler i forretningsordenen og den holdning, som Rådets repræsentant indtog i aftes under spørgetiden. den.
I would ask the services of Parliament or the relevant political authorities to produce a formula that will enable our Parliament, and, by extension, other parliamentary bodies, to be represented at the con ference to be held in Geneva in June to which I have referred.
Formanden. — Hvis De er indforstået dermed, vil jeg forelægge spørgsmålet for Europa-Parlamentets Udvidede Præsidium.
Recession, declines in trade and inadequate investment are threatening develop ments in Central and Eastern Europe that could be influenced favourably.
Jeg mener absolut, at spørgsmålet retfærdiggør en henvendelse til denne instans.
The growing trend towards instability that is visible in the Soviet Union too, and the increasing demotivation among the people are a very poor basis for renewal and for political, economic and social reconstruction in Central and Eastern Europe.
Associeringsaftaler med landene i Central- og Østeuropa
Association agreements with Central and Eastern Europe
A355/91) af Randzio-Plath for Udvalget om Eksterne Økonomiske Forbindelser om en generel plan for associeringsaftaler med landene i Central- og Østeuropa.
A355/91) by Mrs Randzio-Plath, on behalf of the Committee on External Economic Relations, on association agreements with the countries of Central and Eastern Europe: general framework.
På grundlag af disse overvejelser spørger jeg mig selv: hvorledes kunne formanden for Rådet i går sige til hr. Elliot og til mig, at Rådet ikke havde mulig hed for at deltage aktivt som institution i hele processen med bekæmpelse af racisme og fremmed had? Der er noget galt her.
There are certainly a large number of measures that could improve investment opportunities in Central and Eastern Europe, for instance comprehensive investment protection, removing the cumulation ban from the rules of origin for their products, or better application of the law on property.
Randzio-Plath (S), ordfører. — (DE) Fru formand, den hurtige indledning af forhandlingerne om associering med Polen, Ungarn og Tjekkoslovakiet bør følges op af en hurtig indgåelse af disse aftaler.
RANDZIO-PLATH (S), rapporteur. — (DE) Madam President, the rapid opening of negotiations on association agreements with Poland, Hungary and Czechoslovakia should be followed by the speedy conclusion of these agreements.
Rimelige politiske svar fra Det Europæiske Fælles skab skal holde trit med tempoet for ændringerne i Mellem- og Østeuropa, ellers går vigtige muligheder for udvikling tabt.
Given the rate of change in Central and Eastern Europe, the European Community must give an adequate political response equally quickly, otherwise major potential for develop ment will go to waste.
Med associeringsaftalerne indledes en historisk ny form for partnerskab.
The association agreements introduce an historically new form of partnership.
Den signaliserer med rette, at Tjekkoslovaket, Polen og Ungarn hører med til Europa.
They rightly signal that Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary belong to Europe.
Derfor er det vigtigt at betragte associeringsaftalerne ud fra perspektivet tiltrædelse.
That is why it is important to look at the association agreements with a view to accession.
Det Europæiske Fællesskab er et åbent Fællesskab.
The European Community is an open community.
Associeringsaftalerne er politisk vigtige.
The association agreements are politically important.
De er det konkrete skridt til en genforening med det politiske, kulturelle og økonomiske liv i Europa.
They are a practical step towards reconnecting these countries with political, cultural and economic life in Europe.
Det er i de fremtidige associerede landes interesse, men tillige i Det Europæiske Fællesskabs velforståede egeninteresse.
They are in the interest of the associated states, but also in the European Community's acknowledged self-interest.
Stabiliseringen af reformprocesserne kan også bidrage til stabiliteten i Europa, en forudsætning for fred og velstand.
Stabilizing the reform processes can also help to promote stability in Europe, which is essential for peace and prosperity.
Men der er noget meget mere vigtigt og påtrængende.
Here these states find themselves in a vicious circle, for their debts will increase and their liquidity decline if there is no investment.
Fru formand, i juni måned i år skal der i henhold til aftalerne fra Paris-topmødet afholdes et møde for eksperter i Genève af 19 dages varighed — fra den 1. til den 19. juni — for at drøfte emnet racisme og fremmedhad; den officielt godkendte dagsorden for mødet er så fyldig og indeholder så vide beføjelser, at jeg vil undlade at læse den op for forsamlingen. Efter min mening bør vore institutio ner deltage i dette møde.
Only if they invest under stable conditions will we see the future economic revival for which we and our association partners hope. I think it will be just as important for Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland to realize that regional cooperation can be desirable for them too.
Vore eksperter som for eksempel repræsentanterne fra Undersøgelsesudvalget vedrørende Racisme og Fremmedhad bør være med i Genève.
Rapid assimilation to the Community is certainly a priority of the conversion process as far as external relations are concerned.
Europa-Parlamentet kan som institution ikke holde sig uden for noget, der er af så afgørende betydning.
The comprehensive cooper ation approach contained in the association agreements is therefore the right one.
Fru formand, jeg vil blot — og hermed slutter jeg — give udtryk for denne foruroligelse og anmode Par lamentets tjentestegrene om — naturligvis inden juni — at undersøge, på hvilken måde vor institution kan deltage i de yderst vigtige beslutninger, der vil blive truffet i Genève.
The association agreements, which rightly link the change in relations to the democratization of society and to reforms aimed at creating an environmentally conscious social market economy, emphasize the scope for integration of the partners within a European economic area, which is our great ambition. The agreements should help to achieve this.
De skal bidrage dertil.
It is important for the agreements to be
Til forskel fra en tiltrædelse tager de sigte på fordelene, uden at der samtidig medfølger omfattende pligter.
That is why asymmetrical trade relations in favour of the association partners are so important. They must endorse and improve existing trade reliefs.
Det er i begge parters interesse, at der opbygges virksomheder og økonomisk styrke, samt at arbejdspladser bevares og skabes.
Concessions such as those which I am pleased to say have now been jointly called for by Parliament, the Commission and the European Council are needed in all areas, since the trade provisions will remain inadequate if they exclude
Derfor er også asymetriske handelsforbindelser i de fremtidige associerede landes favør meget vigtige. De skal fastholde allerede eksisterende handelslettelser og forbedre dem.
RANDZIO-PLATH institutional position of the European Parliament with regard to the agreements.
Økonomiske og finansielle kriser er en trussel for økonomisk og politisk stabilitet.
precisely those sectors in which the associate countries can compete.
Men samtidig gør den vanskelige økonomiske og finansielle situation det bydende nødvendigt, at reformprocesserne gennemføres i en fart.
That is why the European Community must grant concessions for, say, agricultural, steel and textile products, in terms of both timescales and quotas.
Endelig skal associeringsaftalerne bidrage til eliminering af økonomiske vanskeligheder, ikke til uddybning af fattigdomsgrænsen.
After all, the association agreements are designed to help reduce economic difficulties, not to raise the poverty threshold.
Derfor skal der også fastsættes lempelige, men faste regler for arbejdstagernes fri bevægelighed.
That is why the free movement of workers must be settled in a generous way, though on the basis of fixed rules.
Adgangen til Det Europæiske Fællesskabs arbejdsmarked inden for ram merne af disse faste regler, således som Udvalget om Eksterne Økonomiske Forbindelser foreslår, åbner endvidere mulighed for ikke blot adgang til Det Europæiske Fællesskabs arbejdsmarked, men tillige til erhvervelse af de nødvendige kundskaber for de arbejdstagere, som kan bidrage til moderniseringen af økonomierne i Mellem- og Østeuropa.
Access to the European Community labour market under these fixed rules, as proposed by the Committee on External Economic Relations, also offers the workers of Central and Eastern Europe a chance to acquire the skills they need to help modernize their economies.
De store udfordringer i Mellem- og Østeuropa kan givet ikke klares uden et videregående finansielt samarbejde.
The great challenges in Central and Eastern Europe can certainly not be met or overcome without further financial cooperation.
Derfor skal PHARE-programmet også forlænges ud over 1992.
That is why the PHARE programme will also have to extend beyond 1992.
I denne sammenhæng er Det Europæiske Fællesskabs koordinerende rolle vigtig.
In this context, the European Community has an import ant coordinating role to play.
Betydningen af europæiske afgørelser og aftaler er ok, det er demokratiseringen af beslutningsproces serne desværre ikke. Parlamenternes medlemmer er interesserede i at bidrage til demokratiseringen.
It is true that European decisions and agreements are important, but it is not true that the decisionmaking processes are becoming more democratic.
Den hidtil fastsatte parlamentariske støtte i forbindelse med indgåelsen af associeringsaftalerne er desværre fortsat utilstrækkelig.
The anticipated par liamentary support for the conclusion of these association agreements is still, unfortunately, lacking.
Medlemmer fra de kontraherende parter, alle kontraherende parter, skal have reel medindflydelse.
MPs from the contracting parties, from all the contracting parties, must therefore have a genuine voice in the decisions.
Staterne er her inde i en ond cirkel, for deres gæld vil vokse og deres likviditet vil forringes, hvis der ikke investeres.
PENDERS (PPE), draftsman of the opinion of the Political Affairs Committee. — (NL) Madam President, on behalf of the Political Affairs Committee, I must begin with a few comments on procedure.
Kun hvis der investeres på stabile betingelser, kan det opsving komme, som vi alle sammen med de fremtidige associerede lande håber på.
The Political Affairs Committee wished to assist in drawing up this report by delivering an opinion in the short term and by tabling amendments.
Jeg tror, at det vil være lige så vigtigt, at Tjekkoslovakiet, Ungarn og Polen gør sig klart, at et regionalt samarbejde kan være ønskværdigt også for dem.
However, we really feel that in view of the political and institutional importance of the forthcoming Europe Agreements, there should have been a separate report on the political and institutional aspects of the relations between the Community and Central and Eastern Europe.
At skabe makroøkonomiske betingelser med klare perspektiver kan bidrage til at dæmme op for økonomiske og finansielle kriser.
In that respect, the Political Affairs Committee wishes to state that in its view, the approval over several months of the agree ments that have been concluded must take place on the basis of a report by the Political Affairs Committee.
Derfor er det omfattende sam-
It is right to be cautious.
Penders (PPE), ordfører for udtalelsen fra Det Politiske Udvalg. — (NL) Fru formand, på vegne af Det Politiske Udvalg må jeg begynde med et par proceduremæssige bemærkninger.
I fully understand that these countries feel that the Paris CSCE Treaty and membership of the Council of Europe do not give them enough to hold on to in the turbulent times that are to come.
Det Politiske Udvalg har villet medvirke til denne betænkning ved meget
In their eyes, therefore, only membership of the Community remains as a beacon by which to set a course.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
I shall restrict myself to three categories of comment.
Penders hurtigt at afgive en udtalelse og udarbejde ændrings forslag.
Finally, I wish to say a few words about the European Parliament with regard to the agreements.
Men egentlig synes vi, at der på grund af de kommende Europa-aftalers politiske og institutio nelle betydning burde have været en særskilt betænk ning om de politiske og institutionelle aspekter ved forbindelserne mellem EF og landene i Mellem- og Østeuropa.
I agree with what Mrs Randzio-Plath said, but I would also point out that the role planned for the Parliamentary Association Committees is very limited, and at the very least it should be laid down that these committees have a right to information.
imod.

Til sidst Europa-Parlamentets holdning til aftalerne.
Debates of the European Parliament
Tsimas (S). — (GR) Fru formand, de europæiske aftaler vil utvivlsomt være Fællesskabets hidtil vigtigste politiske skridt over for landene i Central- og Østeuropa henimod en forbedring af vore forbindelser med disse lande.
TSIMAS (S). — (GR) Madam President, the Europe Agreements represent the single most important step the Community has taken with regard to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and towards strengthening our relations with those countries.
Det første spørgsmål, jeg gerne vil komme ind på, er sammenkædningen af den fremgang, der sker med hensyn til EF's forbindelser med de østeuropæiske lande, og fremgangen med hensyn til de demokrati ske og økonomiske reformer. Dette er et principspørgsmål, og det tror jeg, vi alle er enige om.
The first point I should like to make is the link between progress in relations between the Community and the countries of Eastern Europe on the one hand and progress with democratic and economic reforms on the other.
Først noget om konteksten.
of the Eastern bloc, and my group can endorse large sections of it.
Det drejer sig om demokrati og respekt for rule of law, retsordenen, overholdelse af menneskerettighederne, politisk pluralisme, flerpartisystem, frie og hemmelige valg og indførelsen af en socialt og økologisk forsvarlig markedsøkonomi.
Of course, what is involved here is making structural improvements in these countries and creating greater democracy, but we must also seek to maintain these relations through telecommunications, through building up transport infrastructure and other measures.
Det er godt endnu en gang at bemærke, at der indtil nu f.eks. i Polen endnu aldrig har fundet frie parlamentsvalg sted.
Those are the key tasks of the PHARE pro gramme, including and especially in the field of the environment.
Der er ganske vist valgt en ny præsident på en fri måde; men frie parlamentsvalg har hidtil endnu ikke fundet sted der.
It is difficult, however, to impose the specific criteria that we have formulated, such as respect for human rights, democratic elections and of course the creation of market economic structures.
Det er ligeledes vigtigt at fremme, at der i disse lande skabes passende samfundsstrukturer, for at reformerne bliver båret og stimuleret af hele samfundet og ikke kun af politikerne.
Particularly in that area, some countries have faced great difficulties in recent years.
Af alle disse grunde er det nødvendigt at indlede en intensiv politisk dialog med henblik på at udforme principperne i CSCE.
You cannot just introduce a market economy by following a recipe, as Lech Walesa wanted us to do; basically, you have to recognize certain things which this involves.
Men mistilliden til og den tøvende holdning over for præsident Gorbatjovs styre samt udelukkelsen af Sovjetunionen fra disse europæiske aftaler indskrænker Fællesskabets troværdighed og reducerer disse bestræbelsers historiske vægt, og jeg må derfor betragte denne udelulukkelse som politisk nærsynet. net.
However, the mistrust and reticence towards President Gorbachev and, ultimately, the exclusion of the Soviet Union from these Europe Agreements reduces the Community's status and the historic value of these initiatives. Consequently, Madam President, I am forced to regard that exclusion as politically short sighted.
Det lader til, at de kendte blandede følelser, vedrø rende kold krig og kolonialisme, over for et styre og en politisk leder, som har åbnet nye politiske horizonter for Europa og hele verden, stadig er ret udbredte i Rådets og Kommissionens kredse.
It seems that the time-honoured, confused emotions of the cold war and the colonial period are still widely felt within the Council and the Commission, and this with regard to a regime and a political leader who has opened up new political horizons for Europe, and indeed for the whole world.
Nu vil jeg sige noget om udvidelsen af EF.
One thing has not been achieved at all.
Forsigtighed er udmærket.
There are no physical assets there at all.
Jeg har al forståelse for, at disse lande synes, at CSCE-akten fra Paris og ligeledes medlemskab af Europarådet byder for få holdepunkter i de kommende urolige tider.
A businessman who wants to build up a small firm simply cannot obtain a mortgage loan.
Medlemskab af NATO, således som nogle vil, er udelukket. Det ville være en uklog provokation af Sovjetunionen.
So he has to pay the expensive bank rate or even above — in Poland it is currently 85% !
Et andet grundlæggende spørgsmål er moderniseringen af produktionen og omstruktureringen af økonomien netop nu med det mål for øje at øge produktiviteten og inddrage disse i det internationale og europæiske økonomiske system.
Another fundamental issue is the modernization of production methods and the economic restructuring this year, aimed at increasing productivity and bringing the economies into line with the European and international economic system.
Dette kan imidlertid ikke ske, hvis der ikke sker en radikal teknologisk fornyelse af produktionen og en fordeling af varer og tjenesteydelser.
This cannot be done, however, unless there is radical technological innovation in the production process and the distribution of goods and services.
Tsimas i dag ikke det, som alle de faktorer, der fremstår som »frivillige« hjælpere for Central- og Østeuropa og deres forpligtelser, lægger mest vægt på i deres bestræbelser.
So we shall have to see how the Community funds and also the PHARE programme can be applied and executed efficiently — in a project-related way.
Men hvordan kan noget sådant ske, når man stadig ikke har afskaffet vejledningen fra den kolde krig, COCOM, som skaber de alvorligste problemer for samhandelen inden for teknologiområdet?
In addition to our criticisms and flanking measures by the Commission, we must provide know-how, and it is most important that we create an Association Commit tee that operates on a permanent basis — I am speaking here of the Committee on External Economic Relations — and continues to monitor things in order to prevent any early disappointment.
Vi bliver altså nødt til at undersøge, hvorledes EF-midlerne og derudover PHARE-programmet kan gennemføres eller afvikles effektivt — projektrelateret.
But how can this be done, Madam President, when the COCOM list, a vestige of the cold war days, has still not been abolished and continues to create the most severe problems for trade in the technology sector?
Åbne grænser lader sig imidlertid ikke så let realisere for alle lande.
It is not that easy, however, to create open borders for all countries.
Man bør ikke afgive løfter om tiltrædelse, alene af den grund, at man så ikke skuffer folk, hvis det ikke kommer så vidt.
We should not make any promises of accession, if only because we do not want to disappoint people if accession does not come about.
