Povzetek zasedanja - Strasbourg, 7. do 10. julij 2008
Post-Briefing - 7-10 July 2008 - Strasbourg plenary session
Na zadnjem plenarnem zasedanju pred počitnicami je bilo največ pozornosti namenjeno predstavitvi programa francoskega predsedovanja Svetu EU in svežnju zakonodaje o aditivih.
Opening of the Strasbourg plenary session: welcome for release of Ingrid Betancourt and other hostages
Parlament je potrdil direktivo o vključitvi letalstva v sistem trgovanja z izpusti toplogrednih plinov ter sprejel dopolnila k zakonodaji o vzpostavitvi enotnega trga za oskrbo z zemeljskim plinom.
In a statement at the opening of the July Strasbourg session, EP President Hans-Gert Pöttering warmly welcomed the release on 2 July of Ingrid Betancourt and other hostages who were being held by guerrillas in Colombia.
Poslanci so tudi sprejeli resolucijo, s katero odrekajo legitimnost predsedniškim volitvam v Zimbabveju.
The report also makes recommendations to the Commission's SET Plan on the inclusion of intensified research into biofuels, and supports the plan to include research in nuclear power and carbon capture and storage (CCS).
Predsednik je poudaril, da se Parlament veseli skupaj z Ingrid Betancourt in njeno družino.
The House stresses that the elections of 27 June cannot be regarded as legitimate, and welcomes the EU Presidency's statement of 28 June clearly stating this position.
"Vnovič poudarjam, da demokracija ne sme nikoli popuščati terorizmu in je moralno ter politično odgovorna za doseganje pravne države.
Public support, good neighbourhood policy and greater institutional efficiency needed for continued success in EU enlargement
Naša prizadevanja za izpustitev preostalih talcev se nadaljujejo," je zagotovil predsednik Parlamenta, ki je spomnil, da je bila Ingrid Betancourt ugrabljena 22. februarja 2002, Evropski parlament pa si je vseskozi prizadeval za njeno izpustitev.
The European Parliament reiterates its “firm commitment to all candidate countries and to those which have been given clear membership prospects,” but also notes that "the Union must make efforts to strengthen its integration capacity and that this capacity should be fully taken into account" in a report approved by a large majority (534-44-45).
Med drugim je bila ena od treh kandidatov za nagrado Saharova za leto 2006.
It also says that more substantive policies are needed to bridge the gap between the Union’s neighbourhood and enlargement policies.
"Primer Ingrid Betancourt je bil in ostaja izjemnega pomena v prizadevanjih za oblikovanje trajnega miru v Kolumbiji, kakor tudi za izpustitev še preostalih talcev, ki jih v tej državi zadržujejo paravojaške skupine.
MEPs adopted legislation on including aviation in the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS), all flights starting and/or landing in Europe (including intercontinental flights) to be included in the ETS from 1 January 2012.
Prejšnji teden sem Ingrid Betancourt povabil na obisk v Evropski parlament, kadarkoli ji bo to ustrezalo.
The European Central Bank (ECB) has done “excellent work” in managing the financial turmoil, enhancing its reputation said MEPs in their annual report on the ECB.
Vrata Parlamenta bodo zanjo vedno odprta," je še povedal Pöttering in nato pozval FARC ter druge teroristične organizacije, naj odložijo orožje, končajo svoje nerazumno ter nesmiselno nasilje, izpustijo vse talce in sprejmejo ponudbo kolumbijskih oblasti za sklenitev mirovnega sporazuma.
Parliament also calls for the ECB to monitor exchange rates and take action if necessary and to be cautious about raising interest rates to avoid endangering growth.
Prva točka dnevnega reda je bila namenjena osnutku proračuna EU za leto 2009.
MEPs' reflections on the Commission's 2009 Preliminary Draft Budget
Parlament se zavzema, da bi bilo več evropskih sredstev namenjenih za kritje novih finančnih potreb, v proračunu pa bi se moral kot prednostni korak odražati boj proti podnebnim spremembah.
In response to the Commission's 2009 Preliminary Draft Budget, MEPs call for finances to be available for the EU to respond to new financial needs, for the budget to include a proper reflection of the climate change priority and for the budget to be easier for EU citizens to understand.
Proračunski dokument je tudi premalo razumljiv za državljane.
MEPs call for action over Sovereign Wealth Funds
Zvečer je bila razprava posvečena predlogom sprememb poslovnika Evropskega parlamenta glede oblikovanja političnih skupin in reform delovne skupine za spremembe poteka zasedanj (poročili CORBETT).
Parliament adopted a report by Richard CORBETT (PES, UK) on new rules for written questions, this report introduces new guidelines for MEPs wanting to table a written question to either the Council or the Commission.
Zakonodaja naj bi za vse letalske družbe, ki letijo v ali iz Evrope, začela veljati leta 2012.
The report was adopted with 481 votes in favour, 203 against and 26 abstentions.
Prevozniki bodo 85 odstotkov dovolilnic za izpuste dobili zastonj, 15 odstotkov pa jih bodo morali kupiti na licitaciji.
Air fares as displayed will have to include all taxes, fees and charges added to the basic ticket price and known at the time of publication.
Na opoldanskem glasovanju so poslanci potrdili kompromisne predloge zakonodajnih besedil o aditivih .
Parliament approved a deal on this legislation reached with the Council, as it takes on board the EP's key first-reading amendments.
Skupna evropska pravila o uporabi aditivov, živilskih encimov in arom v živilih so tako posodobljena ter poenostavljena.
Under the new legislation, any rolling stock already approved for use in one Member State will have to be accepted in the other states.
Popoldne sta bila na dnevnem redu dva zakonodajna predloga s področja trga zemeljskega plina.
Airbus/Boeing disputes over subsidies should be ruled out in the coming weeks.
Temeljno vprašanje je ločevanje lastništva proizvajalcev plina od omrežij za njegov prenos.
Implementing fair competition rules is among the recommendations sent by MEPs to the European Commission.
Cilj zakonodaje je vzpostavitev notranjega trga s široko ponudbo in zaščito pravic potrošnikov.
The resolution was adopted with 336 votes in favour 220 against and 77 abstentions.
V dopoldanskem delu je bilo na dnevnem redu poročilo o delovanju Evropske centralne banke (ECB) za leto 2007, v razpravi s poslanci pa sta sodelovala sodeloval tudi njen predsednik Jean-Claude Trichet in vodja evroskupine, luksemburški premier in finančni minister Jean-Claude Juncker.
After reading out the names of all the hostages, who were liberated "thanks to a successful military operation by the Colombian army", Mr Pöttering said "The European Parliament shares their happiness and that of their loved ones. ( …) Their release clearly indicates that one must never give up hope."
Popoldne so predstavniki Sveta in Komisije poslancem predstavili stališča EU o razmerah na Kitajskem po katastrofalnem potresu in pred olimpijskimi igrami ter o razmerah v Zimbabveju.
He said he had congratulated President Uribe on the success of the military rescue operation and had stressed "that democracy should never give in to terrorism and that the rule of law must prevail".
Parlament je obravnaval tudi poročilo o strateškem dokumentu za širitev Unije.
He had also invited Ingrid Betancourt to visit the European Parliament when she has recovered.
Poslanci ugotavljajo, da so širitve EU odvisne od dobrih medsosedskih odnosov, javne podpore in boljše institucionalne učinkovitosti.
Lastly, the President issued "an appeal to FARC and to all terrorist groups to lay down their arms and to cease all irrational violence which does not lead anywhere.
Zvečer so poslanci razpravljali o vesolju in varnosti: Evropska unija potrebuje skupni pristop za zastopanje svojih interesov na področju uporabe vesolja.
He said this was the first time that the Presidency-in-Office of the Council had officially attended the opening of a Strasbourg plenary session at the start of its term of office.
Osrednja razprava plenarnega zasedanja je bila namenjena predstavitvi polletnega predsedovanja Francije Svetu EU, ki se je začelo 1. julija.
With heading 1b, the report "deplores the sharp decrease in payments which, when compared to 2008, fall by 13.9%" and MEPs state the EU must be able to deal with "current and future challenges to the solidarity principle".
Prednostne naloge je poslancem predstavil francoski predsednik Nicolas Sarkozy, ki je med drugim poudaril, da brez Lizbonske pogodbe ne more biti nove širitve Unije.
With heading 3b, MEPs consider that the funding of "vital policies with a direct impact on the every day life of citizens" is not sufficient and that the possibility to finance pilot projects and preparatory actions (which is important for the European Parliament) is very limited.
Popoldne se je zasedanje zaključilo z razpravo o kršitvah človekovih pravic po svetu.
The report is concerned by the under-financing of this heading, particularly with regards to Kosovo, Palestine, the Middle East, food aid and macro-financial assistance.
Tokrat je bilo največ pozornosti namenjene razmeram v Kašmirju in Bangladešu.
The first reading resolution of the 2009 PDB will be voted on in October 2008.

Sarkozy: "Evropa ne sme ostati pasivna"
European Parliament adopts written declaration urging 2011 to be the European Year on Volunteering
Francoski predsednik Nicolas Sarkozy je ob začetku polletnega predsedovanja Svetu EU v četrtek dopoldne Evropskemu parlamentu predstavil program vodenja Unije.
Parliament adopted a written declaration announcing 2011 as the European Year on Volunteering.
V nastopu je tudi povedal, da je širitev EU nemogoča brez Lizbonske pogodbe.
The House pointed out that there are more than 100 million Europeans of all ages, beliefs and nationalities who volunteer.
Štiri prednostne naloge, ki si jih je zastavila Francija, so energija in podnebne spremembe, priseljevanje, kmetijstvo ter varnost in obramba.
The written declaration was initially put forward by Marian HARKIN (ALDE, IE), Gisela KALLENBACH (Greens/EFA, DE), Emmanouil ANGELAKAS (EPP-ED, GR), Mieczysław Edmund JANOWSKI (UEN, PL) and Joel HASSE FERREIRA (PES, PT).
Po mnenju Pariza so najbolj pereči izzivi, pred katerimi je trenutno Evropska unija, na področjih podnebnih sprememb, okolja, priseljevanja, hrane in zdravja ter gospodarskih in finančnih zadev.
The voluntary sector, says the declaration, contributes an estimated 5% to GDP of our national economies, and develops innovative actions to detect, voice and respond to needs arising in society,
Evropejci so zaskrbljeni ob globalizaciji in drugih procesih, zato jih je treba v zvezi s tem pomiriti.
He told the House "we all have a heavy responsibility", namely "to get Europe out of its crisis".
Glede vprašanja ratifikacije Lizbonske pogodbe in irske referendumske zavrnitve je francoski predsednik odločno dejal: "Sam podpiram Evropo, ki se upira paralizi delovanja.
To do this, "we must reassure Europeans" and show that Europe is working for all.
Resda smo soočeni s problemom institucij in ne smemo priganjati naših irskih prijateljev, toda obenem bo treba vedeti, na podlagi katere pogodbe bodo izvedene evropske volitve 2009 - to bo ali Lizbona ali Nica.
Many political groups supported the Presidency's priorities but some criticised the lack of social aspects and President Sarkozy's attendance at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
Že 21. julija grem na Irsko, kjer bom poslušal argumente, se pogovarjal in poskušali bomo najti rešitve.
In his opening remarks to MEPs in Strasbourg, French President Nicolas SARKOZY told the House "we all have a heavy responsibility", namely "to get Europe out of its crisis".
Ne bo pa nove medvladne konference in niti nove pogodbe.
No enlargement without new treaty, says Sarkozy
Evropa dveh hitrosti je lahko le skrajna rešitev."
First, "we have an institutional problem", he said.
V zvezi s širitvijo Unije je Sarkozy dejal, da Evropa rabi novo pogodbo prav zato, saj je pogodba iz Nice, ki je trenutno v veljavi, narejena za 27 članic.
He himself had announced before the French presidential elections that he favoured "parliamentary ratification of the treaty" not referendums, and he had been elected on that understanding.
Pogajanja se bodo sicer nadaljevala, toda ob tem ne sme biti nesporazuma: Unija na širitev ne bo pripravljena.
He also strongly emphasised that without Lisbon there could be no further enlargement: enlargement required new institutions.
O prednostnih nalogah je predsedujoči Svetu EU dejal, da je sprejem energetsko-podnebnega svežnja nujnost, saj smo zadnja generacija, ki lahko prepreči katastrofo.
And while he himself favoured the accession of the Balkan countries - since they were "unquestionably European" - people could not say "no" to Lisbon and also demand enlargement to include these countries.
Prav tako bi bilo treba razvijati zamisel o evropski obrambi, ki pa nikakor ne pomeni konkurence zvezi NATO.
He then spoke of the energy and climate package, saying "we are the last generation that can prevent disaster".
Glede priseljevanja je povedal, da je Francija ravnokar dokončno odprla svoj trg delovne sile za vse države članice, kar je dodaten razlog, da v Evropi ne more obstajati 27 različnih obravnavanj priseljencev.
He believed immigration and asylum must be debated at European level, citing the problem of asylum seekers who can lodge 27 separate applications EU-wide.
Politiko priseljevanja in azila je zato treba oblikovati na evropski ravni.
Development was another priority of his country's presidency, as was security and defence.
Skupna kmetijska politika ostaja po Sarkozyjevem mnenju nujnost.
He rejected the idea that one must choose between NATO and an EU defence.
Ob tem je podal primer: "Na svetu zaradi lakote vsakih 30 sekund umre otrok.
"This is not the time to scale down Europe's food production", he argued.
Je torej smiselno zahtevati zmanjšanje evropske kmetijske proizvodnje, če na svetu obstaja pomanjkanje osnovnih živil?"
Turning to monetary policy, he maintained that it was fair to ask "what is the right monetary strategy?" and "what is the right exchange rate policy?".
Med predsedovanjem naj bi se v Franciji sestali strokovnjaki za to bolezen iz vseh članic EU in poskušali oblikovati podlago za skupne ukrepe za nove raziskave in boj na tem področju medicine.
"That is good news for us," he said, promising the Commission would stand with France throughout its presidency to achieve a common success for the EU.
Smo prva trgovinska velesila sveta, rabimo pa pogum za spremembe, če želimo ubraniti to mesto."
"We are first trading power in world, but need courage to change if we want to protect ourselves."
Dodal je, da najrevnejše države sveta rabijo evropsko pomoč, to pa je priložnost za oblikovanje solidarnosti med kmetovalci Evrope in Afrike, kjer bosta skupna kmetijska politika in politika razvojne pomoči delovale vzajemno.
This was a challenging time: with the Irish 'no' vote, a difficult world economic situation, prices of oil and food going up in an inflationary push going which was a big enemy of social justice: "Those on low wages suffer most."
Poudaril je, da je namen Lizbonske pogodbe povečati učinkovitost in demokratičnost Evrope, to, da še ne velja, pa ne more biti izgovor za zanemarjanje težav običajnih državljanov: "Govoriti moramo odkrito in povedati, kako stojijo stvari, ter obenem pokazati dokaze, da Evropa deluje in se osredotočiti na politike, ki jo približajo državljanom in vplivajo na njihov vsakdanjik."
Having just returned from the G8 summit in Japan, Mr Barroso noted the contrast between the gloom often expressed within EU and the external view of Europe: "Outside, the EU is seen as positive, an important and decisive player with importance on the world stage."
Zavzel se je tudi za enotno politiko priseljevanja, ki bo upoštevala potrebe starajoče se Evrope, pomanjkanje določenih poklicev in spodbujala integracijo.
The Commission President highlighted climate change and development as areas where Europe has taken initiatives.
Obenem pa bo treba kaznovati delodajalce, ki zaposlujejo ilegalne delavce, ne pa groziti njim, ki so že sicer v težkem socialnem položaju.
"The US has pretty much signed up to our goals on climate change," he said, something that was not easy to achieve.
Skupaj lahko naredimo ogromno, če evropske institucije delujejo z roko v roki, imamo pravi recept za skupni uspeh, ki smo ga dolžni evropskim državljanom.
Rising food prices, he said, were undermining the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, so he was pleased the European Council has supported the Commission's plans for an agricultural support fund for developing countries.
Skupaj lahko najdemo konkretne rešitve za konkretne probleme."
The formal proposals would be adopted by the Commission next week.
Predstavniki političnih skupin Joseph DAUL (EPP-ED, FR): "Francija je umestila predsedovanje v okvir politične pripravljenosti in to pripravljenost spričo vseh težav potrebujemo.
It was clear that the poorest countries needed European aid: "This is why we can create an example of solidarity between European and African farmers, the Common Agricultural Policy and development policy working in tandem."
Gre zlasti za najgloblja vprašanja, kar najbolje ponazarja irska zavrnitev.
Rather than indulging in what he called "crisisophilia," Mr Barroso said the EU should be the solution to major problems.
Gre za bojazni glede globalizacije, povečevanje cen, za socialne razsežnosti - to so veliki izzivi na področju podnebja, varnosti, imigracij. (...)
On the Lisbon Treaty, he said it could make Europe more effective, efficient and democratic, but not having the treaty in force was not an excuse to not answer the problems of ordinary citizens.
Treba je delati na obrambi naših interesov, tudi promoviranju socialnega modela in evropske specifičnosti.
"We need to talk to them frankly and tell people how it is - and to provide evidence that Europe works, focussing on policies that bring people closer to Europe and change people's daily lives."
Prav tako bo to potrebno, ko obravnavamo prioritete.
Europe, continued the Commission President, needed a managed immigration policy.
Tu so vprašanja, kot so podnebje, migracije, varna prehrana, energetika - sprejeti odločitve do decembra celo za ceno, da zahtevamo enako tudi od mednarodnih partnerjev. (...)
"We should look at what immigration we need, what an aging Europe needs and where there are skills shortages, but we also need to make sure that dignified integration can take place."
Evropska integracija je nekaj, kar je političnega značaja in zaupam predsedstvu, da nas bo spodbujalo in pokazalo potreben pogum."
"We should penalise employers who employ illegal workers, not threatening those who are already poor enough, but penalising those who exploit their labour."
Martin SCHULZ (PES, DE): "Omenili ste podnebne spremembe in Lizbonsko pogodbo.
"We need to be firm on illegal immigration, but also show solidarity with migrant communities who are integrating and wanting to work hard."
Da, če hočemo pokazati rezultate, moramo imeti orodja.
"When you have a Europe of Schengen, having 27 immigration policies is absurd, we need one single policy."
Državljani zahtevajo več vpliva, toda vsakič, ko jim hočemo to dati, nam vzamejo orodje, s katerim bi jim to lahko dali.
He congratulated France on its new social agenda, saying that no-one should be left at the side of the road.
Obstajajo točke, kjer smo drugačnega mnenja.
We can Identify together concrete solutions to concrete problems," concluded the Commission President.
Omenili ste štiri prednostne naloge, pričakoval sem jih pet.
"This is what we need to face developments before Europe.
Omenili ste socialno Evropo.
The worst of these is from the 'no' in Ireland.
Rekli ste, da je to naloga držav članic in to se mi zdi huda napaka.
"If we can't persuade people that major issues like climate, energy and immigration can only be solved at European level, then we have a major problem."
Jasno bom povedal: pričakujemo drugačen pristop.
I hope we will be able to end this institutional debate."
Socialna Evropa ne pomeni, da hočemo ustvariti nek evropski socialni urad.
On climate change, we should, he said, provide an example before Copenhagen.
To je naloga EU: da Evropejcem povemo in pokažemo, da to pomaga tudi njim. (...)
Martin SCHULZ (PES, DE) singled out two priorities for the next six months: the climate change package and the ratification of the Treaty of Lisbon.
Vem, da ste pogumen mož, zato podprite tudi naše prioritete - podnebne spremembe in socialne pravice."
He stressed the need for increased transparency, democracy and a greater role for national Parliaments.
Graham WATSON (ALDE, UK): "Irski NE je vaše dobro pripravljeno predsedovanje postavil v težaven položaj.
Graham WATSON (ALDE, UK) said: "The decision by Irish voters to reject the Lisbon Treaty has made your impressively-prepared presidency more problematic.
Sveženj podnebnih sprememb je vsak dan bolj nujen, omejevanje DDV je kratkoročna rešitev.
The energy and climate change packages become more urgent every day.
Da zagotovimo varnost v okviru naših meja, moramo delovati tudi zunaj njih.
We need substantial investment in renewable energy, as Commissioner Piebalgs has urged.
Francija nam je dala človekove pravice, zdaj pa mora prevzeti vodilni položaj pri njihovi zaščiti."
To stabilise food prices we need good ideas, such as the recent CAP reforms of Commissioner Fischer Boel.
To je nekaj, kar nam v novi pogodbi še manjka.
Now France must lead us in their defence.
Ne moremo spoštovati pravic, če ne bomo spoštovali določenih nalog in obveznosti.
By using the Union for the Mediterranean to press North African countries on their human rights record.
Upam, da bo francosko predsedstvo med prioritete vključilo tudi evropsko listino o pravicah.
"Europe needs aims that inspire young people", she continued, suggesting the Presidency press for a "charter of rights and duties", inter alia to protect the environment.
Ne smemo biti talci teroristov nezakonitega trgovanja z otroki ali nasilja, a države morajo reševati probleme trgovanja z otroki. "
Ms Muscardini also stressed that the small and medium-sized enterprises are a "cultural asset", and that the Council must ensure that trade rules are obeyed.
Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Zeleni/EFA, DE): "Vaša predanost ideji skupne Evrope je - če parafraziram - droga, od katere smo vsi odvisni.
Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Greens/EFA, DE) praised Mr Sarkozy's commitment to, and ambition for, the EU - "It's a drug we're all hooked on", he said, paraphrasing a popular song.
Če bi bili dovolj ambiciozni, potem ob sprejemanju energetsko-podnebnega svežnja ne bi pokleknili pred nemškim avtomobilističnim lobijem, ampak bi ga potrdili takega, kot je.
However, "if we are ambitious enough to accept the climate package, then we should not kneel to the German car industry", he continued, adding that "consumers are paying for our laxism" in high fuel prices.
Ne moremo klicati na pomoč mame, ker je cena goriva previsoka, hkrati pa bi lahko že 15 let proizvajali avtomobile, ki bi porabili le 2-3 litra na 100 kilometrov.
On immigration, Mr Cohn-Bendit stressed that Parliament must be a genuine partner in shaping a policy on legal immigration, rather than just complaining about the illegal sort.
Govorite o priseljevanju in zagotovite, da bo politika oblikovana skupaj s Parlamentom, v resnici pa smo zgradili hišo, kjer smo pozabili na vrata.
Immigration made Europe what it is, and "rather than have people trying to get in through the windows, we should throw open the doors", he said.
Zato nam vanjo ljudje vstopajo skozi okna.
Social policy does fall within Europe's remit, and Parliament and the Council must work together to combat social and fiscal dumping, he said.
Treba je zgraditi vrata, ki bodo vodila v Evropi, potem bomo videli, kaj s tistimi, ki skozi ta vrata prihajajo nezakonito.
Finally, Mr Cohn-Bendit strongly advised Mr Sarkozy not to attend the opening of the Olympic Games in China, given its record of human rights abuses at home and in Tibet.
