Čas je, da se začnejo resne in uravnotežene razprave o institucionalni reformi Svetovne trgovinske organizacije, ki mora postati učinkovitejša in bolj demokratična, je povedala poročevalka Crisiana Muscardini.
"The time has come to carry out a serious and balanced discussion to reform from an institutional point of view the World Trade Organization and make it more effective and democratic," said Ms Muscardini.
Tako bi zagotovili vlogo trgovine kot mehanizma za učinkovito rast in razvoj, zlasti v najrevnejših državah, je še dejala Muscardinijeva.
"It reaffirms the importance of trade as a mechanism for effective growth and development, especially for the poorest countries."
Na tej organizaciji namreč temelji ves sistem svetovne trgovine, navaja poročilo.
The European Union is a member of the WTO with the European Commission acting on its behalf.
Ustanovitev parlamentarne skupščine za STO
MEPs who have supported the report want the Commission to raise the case for reform in Geneva.
Poročilo predlaga ustanovitev parlamentarne skupščine za STO, ki bi imela posvetovalno vlogo.
Parliamentary Assembly for WTO
Njeni člani bi bili poslanci iz 151 članic STO.
The report proposes setting up a parliamentary assembly of MPs from the 151 states.
Zaključek kroga pogajanj iz Dohe
Complete Doha trade round to help developing countries
Poročilo poudarja, da je treba zaključiti krog pogajanj iz Dohe, ki se je začel leta 2001, in pomagati državam v razvoju.
The report stresses that the "Doha development round" launched in 2001 must be completed to help developing countries.
Poročilo opozarja tudi na to, da je skupina držav v razvoju vedno večja in bolj raznolika.
But it calls for exemptions given to developing countries like China, India and Brazil to be re-examined.
Vključuje namreč tudi države, ki so se že dodobra uveljavile, kot denimo Kitajsko, Indijo in Brazilijo, in ki imajo zelo malo skupnega z majhnimi, manj naprednimi državami s skromnimi viri.
These countries have "emerged" and have little in common with less developed poorer countries, it said.
Države bi bilo treba jasneje in bolj enakomerno razvrstiti na način, ki bi ustrezal razvoju njihovih gospodarskih razmer.
It wants a clearer grouping of countries based on economic indicators.
Zato bi bilo treba določiti merila za razlikovanje med različnimi državami.
Closer WTO-UN cooperation needed to protect values
Evropski poslanci bodo na sredinem zasedanju razpravljali tudi o možnostih tesnejšega sodelovanja med STO in drugimi mednarodnimi organizacijami, kot so denimo Mednarodna organizacija dela, Svetovna banka in različne agencije ZN za prehrano in okolje.
The report makes the case for this as globalisation affects so many aspects of people's lives.
Poročilo navaja, da se je s treba s skupnimi in usklajenimi ukrepi spopasti s pojavom globalizacije, ki hkrati vpliva na različne vidike gospodarskega in družbenega življenja ljudi.
It also wants the WTO to be consistent with UN Agencies in ensuring trade rules fully respect human rights law and social and environmental standards".
Soglasje ni lahko doseči
Consensus needed - but on every single issue?
V STO se končne odločitve zmeraj sprejemajo s soglasjem vseh njenih članic.
Unlike most meetings of EU Ministers where a majority or qualified majority can be used for voting, the WTO is run by consensus.
Zaradi velikega števila članic (trenutno 151) pa je to pogosto težko doseči.
As it has 151 members with very different concerns this can make agreement problematic.
Poročilo predlaga, da bi se na ministrskih konferencah ohranilo načelo soglasja, v delovnih skupinah in odborih pa naj bi se vzpostavil drugačen način odločanja.
Another aspect in the debate will be a call for the wealthy developed nations to help poor countries to develop knowledge and technical know-how to adapt and implement the complex rules of the WTO.

Torek na plenarnem zasedanju: terorizem, varstvo podatkov, finančni trgi
Tuesday in plenary: Fear over food prices, 2006 budget, Galileo
Danes več kot 5000 spletnih strani spodbuja k terorističnim dejanjem, zato so se osredotočali zlasti na uporabo novih tehnologij v boju proti terorizmu.
The European Parliament on Tuesday granted the discharge for all the EU's institutions and agencies for the 2006 financial year, thereby giving overall endorsement of the management of EU funds in that year.
V nadaljevanju dneva so poslanci obravnavali šest poročil o novi evropski pomorski zakonodaji, ter glasovali o dveh poročilih o trenutni finančni situaciji.
Numerous recommendations for improvement were nevertheless made: on the key issue of control of structural funds, MEPs called for better supervision through a new reporting mechanism to Parliament.
Terorizem in varstvo osebnih podatkov
World food prices have risen 45 % in the last nine months and there are serious shortages of rice, wheat and maize.
Evropski poslanci so pozdravili poročili francoskih socialdemokratk Roselyne Lefrançois in Martine Roure, ter poudarili pomen ravnotežja med varstvom podatkov in bojem proti terorizmu.
In many parts of the world - Haiti, Egypt, the Philippines and parts of West Africa there have been protests and riots against the soaring prices of food products.
Parlament se zavzema za novo opredelitev "javno napeljevanje", ravnanje pa mora predstavljati dejansko in ne le hipotetično nevarnost storitve terorističnega kaznivega dejanja.
For the Socialist PSE group Martin Schulz called for greater control over world economic systems, raising the issue of large investment funds taking over the food sector: "We should not allow the financial system to contribute to hunger!" he told MEPs.
Boj proti terorizmu je lahko učinkovit in ustrezen le, če je okrepljena zaščita človekovih pravic, je dejala Martine Route.
In his view "rather than using the bio fuels as a scapegoat we must move to end agricultural protectionism and export restrictions."
Podatki se ne smejo uporabljati za druge namene, kot so ti, zaradi katerih so bili zbrani, je še dodala Routejeva.
He said that "agrifuels will not be the panacea for everything, but we have to ensure that the waste stuff can be converted into energy".
Številni poslanci so se osredotočali na bombne napade v Španiji in Pakistanu pretekli teden.
MEPs will vote on a resolution on food prices when they meet in Strasbourg between 19-22 May.
Drugi poslanci pa so bili mnenja, da predlog Komisija lahko ogrozi svobodo izražanja.
MEPs also discussed a possible deal with Council which that would make Galileo, the European satellite radio navigation system, operational by 2013.
Druge teme na dnevnem redu
EU-wide organ donation card supported
Evropski poslanci so sprejeli dva poročila: o hedge skladih in skladih zasebnega kapitala ter o preglednosti na področju institucionalnih vlagateljev.
MEPs adopted a report on measures, including a European donor card and reinforced cooperation between countries to curb organ shortages and trafficking.
Glasovali so tudi o poročilu o peticijah v letu 2007.
Cypriot MEP Mr Adamos Adamou (GUE/NGL) acted as the rapporteur on the issue.
Razpravljali pa so o šestih poročilih za spremembe evropske pomorske zakonodaje.
He told the House that "every day 10 people die, waiting for an organ donation".

Sreda na plenarnem zasedanju: predsednik Danilo Türk, ameriški brezvizumski program, Burma
Wednesday in plenary: Slovenian president, visas to US, Burma
Predsednik Danilo Türk v Strasbourgu
Slovenia's President Danilo Türk in Strasbourg to address MEPs
Ustvarjalnost je ključ do uspeha pri spopadanju Evropske unije z vprašanji globalnega segrevanja, človekovimi pravicami, priseljevanjem in širitvijo, je v svojem govoru v slavnostnem delu plenarnega zasedanja dejal Danilo Türk, predsednik trenutno predsedujoče države EU.
In a keynote address to MEPs on Wednesday the president of Slovenia urged the European Union to be creative in dealing with global warming, human rights and immigration policy.
Evropski poslanci so včeraj razpravljali tudi o pogovorih z ZDA o brezvizumskem režimu in razmerah v Mjanmaru.
The day also saw the House debate the current Visa waiver regime with the US that affects people from 12 European Union countries if they wish to travel to America.
Predsednik Türk se je v svojem govoru zavzel za vodilno vlogo Evropske unije pri reševanju globalnih vprašanj, kot so podnebne spremembe in varstvo človekovih pravic.
MEPs also discussed the situation in Burma calling for the release of Aung San Suu Kyi and more targeted sanctions against the military leadership in Rangoon.
Predsednik republike je poudaril, da mora Unija dosledno spoštovati človekove pravice prav doma, kar vključuje tudi zaščito človekovih pravic migrantov in prosilcev za azil ter skrbno uporabo zakonov v primerih, ki vključujejo obtožbe terorizma.
On human rights he said "the overwhelming concerns with terrorism and other security challenges, coupled with responses to those challenges which are ill-advised or not well thought seem to have reduced the level of sensitivity for human rights.
V svojem govoru se je dotaknil tudi vprašanja nadaljnje širitve EU.
The EU has to fill the gap"
"Evropska unija v svojih prizadevanjih, da bi prevzela svetovno vlogo strateškega pomena, potrebuje Turčijo.
On effective immigrant policy he told MEPs that "persons of immigrant origin who have succeeded should appear on TV and in other media and be seen as examples of success".
Unija Turčiji ne sme odreči perspektive članstva, saj ji je bila ta že odobrena.
The EU should not deprive Turkey of the perspective of membership as this has already been granted.
Če bi se to zgodilo, bi to postavilo pod vprašaj kredibilnost Evropske unije same," je še povedal predsednik Türk.
The credibility of the EU is at stake."
Reforma ameriškega brezvizumskega programa
Travelling to the US - action on Visas
Državljani ostalih dvanajstih članic za potovanje v ZDA namreč še zmeraj potrebujejo vizo.
MEPs had earlier debated visa waivers for EU citizens from 12 EU states travelling to US.
Komisija se bo v prihodnosti na podlagi mandata, ki ga je pretekli teden prejela od Sveta, pogajala za pogoje pod zakonodajo Skupnosti, o drugih vprašanjih pa se bodo države članice pogajale na bilateralni osnovi.
A twin-track system was proposed whereby the Commission will negotiate the conditions under Community law on the basis of the mandate received from Council last week and EU states will themselves negotiate other issues on bilateral basis
Večina evropskih poslancev je pozdravila mandat Komisije, mnogi pa so kritizirali odločitev nekaterih držav članic, da bodo z ZDA vodile dvostranske pogovore.
The majority of MEPs welcomed the mandate for Commission and criticised the fact that some countries decided to open bilateral talks with US.
Burma - potrebne so premišljene sankcije
Burma - smarter sanctions needed
Po izjavi Sveta in Komisije so evropski poslanci razpravljali o razmerah v Burmi.
MEPs discussed the situation in Burma after Statements by the Council and Commission.
Nekateri evropski poslanci so pozvali, da se politični zapornik, tudi nominiranec za nagrado Saharovo, Aung San Su Kji spusti na svobodo.
In broad terms the reaction of MEPs called for the release of political prisoner and Aung San Suu Kyi (Sakharov prize laureate).
Zahtevali so tudi obnovitev, razširitev in boljšo usmeritev sankcij, da bi tako kaznovali vojaško hunto in ne burmanskega prebivalstva.
They also demanded the "renewing, broadening and better targeting" of sanctions to hit the junta rather than the Burmese people.
Poslanci so tudi poudarili, da naj Evropska unija močneje pritisne na Kitajsko, Indijo in Rusijo, ki Burmo oskrbujejo z vojaškimi blagom, embargo EU na orožje pa je tako praktično neučinkovit.
MEP also stressed that the EU should exert more pressure on China, India and Russia who provide military goods to Burma and make the EU arms embargo ineffective.
Poslanci bodo o resoluciji na to temo glasovali v torek.
A vote on a resolution will be held on Thursday.

Predsednik Danilo Türk: "Potrebne so inovacije in večja zavzetost"
Interview: Slovenia's President Türk on the UN, food and biofuel
Danilo Türk: "Evropska unija bi morala v OZN nastopati čim bolj aktivno."
Face to face with former UN diplomat turned Slovene President, Danilo Türk
Slovenski predsednik Danilo Türk, nekdanji dolgoletni diplomat pri OZN, je včeraj v slavnostnem delu plenarnega zasedanja v Strasbourgu nagovoril evropske poslance.
Prior to being elected Slovenia's president in November last year, Danilo Türk had a distinguished career at the United Nations culminating in his appointment as Assistant Secretary General for Political Affairs.
Po njegovem nastopu smo z njim spregovorili o aktualnih svetovnih temah.
On Wednesday he was in Strasbourg to address MEPs.
Predsednik države, ki trenutno predseduje EU, nam je predstavil vlogo Združenih narodov in Evropske unije v sodobnem svetu, dotaknil pa se je tudi vprašanja človekovih pravic, povečanja cen hrane in proizvodnje biogoriv.
In an exclusive interview, we asked him about the role the UN and the European Union can play in the modern world, especially in promoting human rights and alleviating crises such as present rise in food prices.
Gospod predsednik, danes ste v Evropskem parlamentu spregovorili kot predsednik države, ki predseduje EU.
Today in the European Parliament you spoke as the head of the country holding the EU presidency.
Leta 1998 in 1999 ste kot veleposlanik predsedovali Varnostnemu svetu OZN.
In 1998 and 1999 as Slovenia's ambassador to the UN you presided over the UN Security Council.
Ali bi lahko primerjali ti izkušnji?
Could you compare these two experiences?
"Ti dve izkušnji sta popolnoma različni.
The two are completely different.
Varnostni svet je organ, ki se ukvarja s krizami in kriznim upravljanjem, Evropska unija pa je skupnost držav, ki gradi učinkovite in zahtevne skupne institucije ter ima zahtevne programske in politične cilje.
The Security Council is a body that deals with crises and crisis management, the EU is a community of countries, which builds effective common institutions and has an ambitious program and political goals.
Delo v enem in drugem kontekstu je zato drugačno.
Experience of the Security Council can however help as the EU has also faced and will have to face crises in different parts of the world.
Seveda pa je vsako na svoj način zanimivo.
We need to have knowledge about how to approach these issues.
Ali lahko ti dve organizaciji – EU in OZN – prispevata k ublažitvi problema cen hrane, o čemer so med drugim na včerajšnjem plenarnem zasedanju razpravljali tudi evropski poslanci?
Could these two organisations contribute to tackling the problem of rising food prices, one of the main topics of yesterday's plenary session?
"Na tem področju kratkoročno gledano nisem optimist.
From a short-term point of view I'm not optimistic.
EU ima skupno kmetijsko politiko in v tem okviru bi se prav gotovo dalo najti rešitve za intervencijo na trgu hrane.
The EU has a common agriculture policy where a solution for the food market can be found.
Ne želim prejudicirati političnih razprav, ampak zdi se mi, da je Unija v tem času nekoliko bolje pripravljena.
I would say that the EU is better prepared than the UN.
Vloga ZN je bolj dolgoročna skozi Organizacijo za prehrano in kmetijstvo (FAO), ki je za izboljšanje kmetijske proizvodnje že veliko naredila.
The role of the UN is more long-term through the Food and Agriculture Organisation, which has already done a lot for the improvement of agriculture and food production.
Svetovni program za hrano pa ne more obvladati zelo širokih kriznih situacij, ki se lahko pojavijo ob pomanjkanju hrane."
Also the World Food Programme can not master the more general crisis which is due to the lack of food globally.
Proizvodnja industrijskih rastlin za pridobivanje biogoriva v Latinski Ameriki, še zlasti v Braziliji, vztrajno raste.
You have just returned from Latin America, where production of biofuels is growing. especially in Brazil,.
Mnogi menijo, da je to eden izmed poglavitnih razlogov za podražitve hrane, negativno pa vpliva tudi na podnebne spremembe.
Today many people link biofuels to rising food prices and even suggest they add to global warming.
Kako vi gledate na to?
What is your opinion?
"Najprej bi rekel, da je položaj v različnih latinskoameriških državah različen.
The situation is different across Latin America.
Brazilija je spet v posebnem položaju, tudi glede na izkušnje in obseg proizvodnje biogoriv.
One cannot compare Peru and Argentina.
Kar zadeva biogoriva, sem med svojim obiskom v Braziliji ugotovil, da tam veliko razmišljajo o alternativah.
Each country has it own problems and advantages.
Zdaj so nova nahajališča nafte v velikih globinah prinesla nove upe, da bo morda tudi to pomagalo upočasniti rast proizvodnje biogoriv.
Brazil has a special position because of its experience with biofuels and the amount it produces..
"V pogovoru z mano je predvsem poudaril nova nahajališča nafte.
The level of biofuels produced in Brazil is already high.
Govorim vam bolj o vtisu, da zavedanje o raznovrstnosti teh učinkov obstaja.
However, now they are thinking about alternatives.
Obstaja tudi določeno pričakovanje, da bodo nova nahajališča nafte pomagala."
New oil fields at great depth have been found which has brought new hope that it may slow the growing production of biofuels.
"V svojem govoru v Parlamentu sem opozoril, da je potrebna večja zavzetost.
Do you think Europe's efforts to protect human rights are up to the task?
Poudaril sem, da Lizbonska pogodba vključuje Listino o temeljnih pravicah, kar bo v Evropi ustvarilo nove možnosti.
The Lisbon Treaty includes the Charter of Fundamental Rights, which will create new possibilities.
Skratka, razlogi za optimizem so.
In short, there are reasons for optimism.
Rekel pa bi, da bodo potrebne tudi inovacije.
However innovations are needed.
Res je, da bi Evropski parlament lahko imel obširnejše in bolj poglobljene razprave o človekovih pravicah, da bi na to temo lahko organiziral tudi javne obravnave in tako dodatno prispeval k utrjevanju politike človekovih pravic kot skupne politike EU.
The European Parliament could have deeper debates on human rights, organise hearings and thus contribute to the strengthening of the policy of human rights as EU common policy.
Tudi v OZN bi morala Evropska unija nastopati čim bolj aktivno.
In addition, the EU should appear more active in the UN - although for that to happen the decision mechanisms need to be adjusted.
Seveda je za kaj takega treba prilagoditi tudi mehanizem odločanja.
Searching for consensus and at any price can lead to the dilution of the final position and less effective action.
Iskanje konsenza povsod in za vsako ceno namreč pripelje do razvodenitve stališč in s tem tudi do manj učinkovitega ukrepanja.
Financial turbulence and an apparent worldwide economic turndown are preoccupying leaders across the world.
Te probleme je treba obravnavati resno, če želimo, da bo EU bolj učinkoviti akter na tem področju."
The EU presidency places Slovenia at the forefront of international efforts to tackle these problems.
Kako se Slovenci odzivajo na to globalno vlogo?
How do Slovenians react to this global role?
"V Uniji, zlasti na evroobmočju, je čutiti določen občutek zaščitenosti zaradi naše skupne valute.
In the EU, especially in the eurozone, one can feel a certain protection because of our common currency.
Tako v Evropi, podobno kot recimo na Japonskem, ni čutiti takšne vznemirjenosti, kot na primer v ZDA.
In Europe and for example in Japan the anxiety is not as present as it is in the US.
Zdi se mi, da v Sloveniji ta evropska samozavest pomaga vzdrževati tudi določeno stabilnost v gledanju na probleme, s katerimi se soočamo.
I think that this European self-confidence helped Slovenes to maintain a certain stability regarding the problems we are facing.

Četrtek na plenarnem zasedanju: Sredozemska unija
Thursday in plenary: polluter pays, Zimbabwe, Iran
Na vidiku je sredozemska unija, ki bi poglobila odnose med partnerji ob sredozemskem morju - območje, ki ga predstavlja 39 vlad in 750 milijonov prebivalcev.
A majority backed "market based initiatives" to help back up the "polluter pays" principle.
Sredozemska unija pa naj bi bila tudi ena od prednostnih nalog bližajočega se francoskega predsedovanja Uniji.
During the afternoon's human rights debate, MEPs condemned Robert Mugabe's rule in Zimbabwe and expressed support for those imprisoned in Iran for their political views.
Obnovljeno regionalno sodelovanje
Protecting the planet - through the market?
Evropska komisarka za zunanje zadeve Benita Ferrero-Waldner je na zasedanju v četrtek predstavila številne izzive in možnosti za obnovljeno sodelovanje s sredozemskimi prijatelji.
MEPs debated a report by French Socialist Anne Ferreira on "market-based instruments for the environment and related policy purposes", based on a Commission Green Paper.
Kot glavne točke pobude je navedla krepitev političnega partnerstva, boljšo delitev odgovornosti v večstranskih odnosih ter krepitev regionalnih projektov na področju infrastrukture, energije in varstva okolja.
"Market-based instruments" include taxation, the EU's Emission Trading Scheme, trade and technology.
Evropski poslanci so pozdravili pobude Evropske komisije in zavzemanje francoskega predsednika Nicolasa Sarkozyja za okrepitev tega partnerstva.
MEPs said "MBIs" are useful for enforcing the polluter pays principle but said they should not be a substitute for environmental legislation.
Pozvali so, da se moramo pri tem osredotočati zlasti na ljudi in preprečiti podvajanje birokratskih struktur.
Ms Ferreira urged action saying: "What is the cost linked to not doing anything?"
Vito Bonsignore je v imenu Evropske ljudske stranke dejal, da zavzemanje predsednika Sarkozyja za sredozemsko unijo zasluži aplavz.
British Socialist Neena Gill said that "it is essential to push for behavioural changes, and the one that pollutes the most should be the one that pays the most".
Spregovoril je tudi o pomenu multilateralnih projektov in poudaril, da je treba območje proste trgovine vzpostaviti do leta 2010.
Belgian Liberal Fréderique Ries told fellow MEPs that "we cannot limit the actions to the emissions trading system".
Opozoril pa je še na napetosti v Zahodni Sahari in na Bližnjem vzhodu.
In a debate on Zimbabwe, MEPs from all sides of the House denounced the regime of Robert Mugabe.
Za skupino Socialdemokratov je spregovoril Martin Schulz.
The resulting resolution called on Zimbabwe's electoral committee to immediately release the results of the 29 March election.
Pomen trgovine in človekovih pravic
MEPs also discussed the position of women and human rights in Iran.
