Imamo občutek, da burmanske oblasti niso pripravljene sodelovati z mednarodno skupnostjo, je na zasedanju dejal državni sekretar Janez Lenarčič.
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 The majority of MEPs welcomed the mandate for Commission and criticised the fact that some countries decided to open bilateral talks with US.
Naše osrednje skupno sporočilo je predvsem, da lahko le verodostojen in vključujoč proces demokratizacije omogoči nacionalno spravo, stabilnost in blaginjo, je še dejal Lenarčič.
Burma - smarter sanctions needed MEPs discussed the situation in Burma after Statements by the Council and Commission.
Četrtek na plenarnem zasedanju: Okolje, Zimbabve, Iran
Thursday in plenary: polluter pays, Zimbabwe, Iran
Poslanci razpravljali o položaju žensk v Iranu Zadnji dan aprilskega plenarnega zasedanja v Strasbourgu je bil namenjen predvsem razpravi o tržnih instrumentih za namene okoljske politike.
The position of women in Iran was debated by MEPs The closing day of debates and votes in Strasbourg saw MEPs discuss economic incentives to help the environment through tax measures and the Emission Trading Scheme.
Poslanci so razpravljali o tem, kako bolje zaščititi okolje z različnimi gospodarskimi pobudami, kot so denimo davčni ukrepi za spodbujanje okolja in sistemi trgovanja z emisijami toplogrednih plinov.
A majority backed "market based initiatives" to help back up the "polluter pays" principle.
Popoldne se je zasedanje zaključilo z razpravo o kršitvah človekovih pravic po svetu.
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.
Tokrat je bilo največ pozornosti namenjeno Zimbabveju in Čadu.
Protecting the planet - through the market?
Osrednja razprava četrtkovega plenarnega zasedanja v Strasbourgu je bila namenjena poročilu francoske socialdemokratke Anne Ferreira o tržnih instrumentih za namene okoljske politike.
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.
Poročevalka ugotavlja, da je za omejitev učinkov podnebnih sprememb treba uvesti stroge ukrepe in s tržnimi instrumenti izvajati načelo "plača onesnaževalec".
"Market-based instruments" include taxation, the EU's Emission Trading Scheme, trade and technology.
Ob tem se mora upoštevati tudi skrite stroške proizvodnje in potrošnje, ki vplivajo na zdravje ljudi in okoljske spremembe.
MEPs said "MBIs" are useful for enforcing the polluter pays principle but said they should not be a substitute for environmental legislation.
Načelo "plača povzročitelj obremenitve" pomeni, da so v tržne cene vključeni tudi zunanji, dejanski proizvodni stroški ali škoda, povzročena okolju in zdravju.
British Conservative John Purvis said the "emissions trading system is the best market instrument to reach the objective of reducing the emissions by 20%".
Načelo omogoča določitev prave cene izdelka, saj se lahko vanjo vključijo tudi stroški za čiščenje onesnaženja in povračilo škode, ki jo je povzročila njegova proizvodnja.
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".
Britanski poslanec Geoffrey Van Orden je na začetku razprave dejal, da je Mugabe uničil nekoč cvetočo državo.
Opening the debate British Conservative Geoffrey Van Orden said, "Mugabe has destroyed a once prosperous country."
Poslanci v resoluciji zimbabvejski volivski odbor pozivajo , da nemudoma razveljavi rezultate volitev z 29. marca.
The resulting resolution called on Zimbabwe's electoral committee to immediately release the results of the 29 March election.
Parlament je v četrtek razpravljal tudi o položaju žensk in človekovih pravicah v Iranu.
Iran - condemnation of the repression of civil rights movements MEPs also discussed the position of women and human rights in Iran.
Poslanci z resoluciji obsojajo zatiranje gibanj v iranski civilni družbi in ostro nasprotujejo smrtni kazni.
A resolution condemned "the repression of civil society movements in Iran" and reaffirmed strong opposition to the death penalty.
V zadnjih meseci se je namreč število obsodb na smrtno kazen močno povečalo.
The number of executions has risen starkly in Iran in recent months.
Resolucija pozdravlja osvoboditev aktivista za človekove pravice Kadijeha Moghadama.
It welcomed the release of human rights activist Khadijeh Moghaddam - albeit for a large bail sum.
Poslanci pozivajo k takojšnji in brezpogojni izpustitvi političnih nasprotnikov režima in več kot 1800 političnih zapornikov, med njimi Aung San Su Či, voditeljev študentske generacije '88 in voditeljev lige za demokracijo šanskih skupnosti, ki so bili aretirani leta 2005.
A resolution also calls for the immediate release of 1,800 political prisoners included Nobel winner Aung San Suu Kyi.
Opoldne so poslanci glasovali o številnih poročilih, med drugim o resoluciji o biološki raznovrstnosti in varnosti, tržnih instrumentih, prednostnih nalogah Evropske komisije za naslednjo leto in reformi Svetovne trgovinske organizacije.
Thursday's votes Among the legislation approved were: a resolution on biological diversity, Market Based Instruments, the Commission's priorities for next year, WTO reform and the "New Flame" shipwreck in Spain.
Parlament za več sankcij proti režimu v Burmi
Burma: broadened and more targeted sanctions needed, say MEPs
V četrtek so evropski poslanci s 551 glasovi za, 7 proti in 8 vzdržanimi glasovi sprejeli resolucijo o razmerah v Burmi, s katero obsojajo nelegitmnost zadnjih potez tamkajšnjega režima in pozivajo EU k izvajanju še bolj obsežnih in usmerjenih sankcij, vključno s popolnim embargom na izvoz orožja.
Broadened and more targeted sanctions, a worldwide arms embargo and the release of political prisoners including Aung San Suu Kyi, recipient of the 1990 Sakharov prize, are among the demands of MEPs in a resolution adopted today by the House.
Burmanska vojaška hunta je v začetku aprila objavila predlog ustave, o katerem bo 10. maja izveden referendum, leta 2010 pa naj bi mu sledile večstrankarske volitve.
The Burmese military junta led by General Than Shwe intends to hold a referendum on a new Constitution on May 10, 2008.
Ob tem poslanci še posebej obsojajo dejstvo, da so burmanske oblasti zavrnile predloge posebnega odposlanca OZN Ibrahima Gambarija, da bi dovolili odprto in vključujočo kampanjo v pripravah na ustavni referendum.
MEPs deplore the fact that the constitutional referendum process is devoid of any democratic legitimacy and condemns the rejection by the Burmese Government of the proposals made by the UN Special Envoy, Mr Ibrahim Gambari, to allow an open and inclusive campaign in the run-up to the constitutional referendum.
Obsežnejše in bolj usmerjene sankcije
Broadened and more targeted sanctions
Izbranim posameznikom in gospodarskim subjektom pa naj bi se vsestransko in izrecno prepovedalo opravljanje finančnih transakcij prek klirinških bank ali finančnih storitev v sodni pristojnosti EU.
The resolution also urge the Council to comprehensively and explicitly prohibit selected individuals and entities from making any financial transactions that pass through clearing-house banks or otherwise using financial services in the EU's jurisdiction.
Parlament še poziva Svet, naj prouči možnost nadaljnjih usmerjenih sankcij, kot so popolna prepoved novih naložb, prepoved zavarovalnih storitev za naložbe v Burmi ter trgovinski embargo na ključne dobrine, ki so vir znatnih prihodkov za vojaško vlado.
MEPs also call on the Council to consider further targeted sanctions, such as a complete ban on new investment, a ban on the provision of insurance services for investment in Burma, and an embargo on trade in key commodities that provide significant revenue to the military government.
Politični zaporniki
Political prisoners and September crackdown
Poslanci pozivajo k takojšnji in brezpogojni izpustitvi političnih nasprotnikov režima in več kot 1800 političnih zapornikov, med njimi Aung San Su Či, voditeljev študentske generacije '88 in voditeljev lige za demokracijo šanskih skupnosti, ki so bili aretirani leta 2005.
The resolution calls for the "immediate and unconditional release" of political opponents of the regime and more than 1,800 political prisoners, including Aung San Suu Kyi, the leaders of the ’88 Generation Students, and the leaders of the Shan Nationalities League for Democracy arrested in 2005.
Burmanski režim bi moral prevzeti odgovornost za vse žrtve in pogrešane osebe po zadušitvi protestov budističnih menihov in borcev za demokracijo septembra lani ter ugotoviti in sporočiti, kje so pogrešani menihi ter nune.
MEPs calls for the regime to account for all casualties and missing persons from last September’s crackdown on protests by Buddhist monks and democracy activists and to establish the whereabouts of missing monks and nuns.
Parlament še ugotavlja, da je embargo EU na izvoz orožja v Burmo neučinkovit, saj vojaška vlada kupuje vojaško opremo na Kitajskem, v Rusiji in Indiji.
On the current trade negotiations with ASEAN countries, the resolution urges ASEAN to put substantive pressure on the Burmese authorities to bring about democratic change.
Evropska unija bi se zato morala dejavno zavzemati za svetovni embargo na izvoz orožja v Burmo.
MEPs support the efforts of the EU's special envoy on Burma, Piero Fassino, to promote dialogue with ASEAN countries.

Evropska strategija o biološki raznovrstnosti in varnosti
Preparations for the COP-MOP meetings on biological diversity and biosafety
Evropski parlament je v četrtek s 546 glasovi za, 7 proti in 11 vzdržanimi glasovi sprejel resolucijo o zaščiti biološke raznovrstnosti in varnosti.
The resolution was adopted with 546 votes in favour 7 against and 11 abstentions.
Med 190 državami sveta je konvencijo podpisalo tudi vseh 27 držav članic EU.
The European Parliament urges (inter-alia) the Commission and the Member States to:
Podpisnice so se obvezale, da bodo do leta 2010 pomembno prispevale k zmanjševanju izgube na področju biotske raznovrstnosti in zato oblikovale svetovno mrežo kopenskih in morskih zaščitenih območij.
– ensure that the COP 9 decisions are geared to implementing the CBD's Programme on Protected Areas and to strengthening the implementation with a view to the 2010 targets, with particular reference to the CBD's Programme of Work on Forest Biological Diversity,
Parlament poziva Komisijo in države članice k sprejetju konkretnih ukrepov in k odločenosti pri zaščite biotske raznovrstnosti, tako v domačem kot tudi v mednarodnem okolju.
– financially support the LifeWeb Initiative aimed at matching voluntary commitments by parties for the designation and management of protected areas with voluntary commitments from donors for dedicated (co-)financing,
V te namene je treba ustanoviti mednarodni znanstveni forum, ki bo svetoval konvenciji in oblikoval izčrpno svetovno mapo območij, pomembnih za ohranjanje biotske raznovrstnosti.
– consider that achieving conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity should be amongst the top priorities for COP 9,
Države članice in Komisija morajo zagotoviti, da bodo odločitve konference v Bonnu prilagojene izvajanju programa konvencije o zaščitenih območjih.
– carry out an EU impact assessment on droughts and water scarcity caused by climate change and its effects on wildlife habitats, highlighting the zones where migratory birds nest, and promoting international cooperation to protect migratory birds and the seasonal wetlands which provide them with water and food,
Učinkovito upravljanje in financiranje zaščitenih območij in njihovih omrežij pa mora postati nujna praksa delovanja.
– ensure that COP 9 invites parties to begin a discussion and agree on common principles and criteria of good forest governance, building on the progress already made in various regional FLEG/T processes and the Amazon Treaty,
Parlament zato podpira sprejetje inovativnih in trajnih finančnih mehanizmov, ki bodo prispevali k ohranjanju in trajnostni rabi biotske raznovrstnosti.
– ensure that COP 9 agrees that parties begin discussions to agree a global mechanism to regulate timber harvesting and trade for the purpose of combating illegal logging and promoting sustainable use of forest resources, and that COP 9 invites parties to adopt national legislation which prevents the sale of illegal and destructive timber and timber products on the market,
Pospešiti je treba tudi izvajanje že sprejetih obveznosti za ohranjanje in trajnostno upravljanje raznovrstnosti morja, kar je edini način za zaščito pred uničevalnimi praksami.
– ensure that COP 9 recommends that parties further integrate forest biodiversity aspects of climate change impacts and response activities into national biodiversity strategies and action plans (NBSAPs) and into national forest programmes and other forest related strategies, as well as support research to better understand the impacts of climate change on forest biodiversity,
Poslanci so se še zavzeli, da bi se na konferenci konec maja prednostno obravnavale negativne posledice proizvodnje biogoriv za biotsko raznovrstnost ter avtohtone in lokalne skupnosti.
– ensure acceleration of the implementation of existing commitments for better conservation and sustainable management of marine biodiversity with the view to protect marine biodiversity from destructive practices,
Sprejeti bi morale skupna načela in merila za dobro upravljanje z gozdovi, pri čemer bi uveljavitev globalnih mehanizmov preprečila nezakonito sečnjo in spodbudila trajnostno rabo gozdnih virov.
– ensure that COP 9 makes available the recommendations on marine and coastal biodiversity of the Expert Workshop mentioned above to the UNGA Ad Hoc Open-Ended Informal Working Group,
Obenem je treba upoštevati napredek v okviru različnih regionalnih projektov izvajanja zakonodaje, upravljanja in trgovanja na področju gozdov (FLEG/T) ter amazonskega sporazuma.
– play a leading role in the Meeting of Parties to the Cartagena Protocol to ensure a legally binding liability regime with a broad scope,
Poleg uveljavitve globalnih predpisov pa morajo biti spremembe vidne tudi znotraj nacionalnih zakonodaj držav članic, saj se bo le na tak način lahko preprečevalo trženje nezakonite in uničevalne sečnje lesa in lesnih izdelkov.
– ensure that COP 9 urgently addresses the negative effects of the production of biomass for energy, especially of agrofuels production, on biodiversity and on indigenous and local communities ,
Na bonnski konferenci je zato treba doseči napredek na tem področju, boju proti biopiratstvu pa zagotoviti popolno skladnost z nacionalno zakonodajo držav izvora.
20080423IPR27462 Convention on Biological Diversity The fourth meeting of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (COP-MOP 4) will be held at the Maritim Hotel in Bonn, Germany, from 12 to 16 May 2008.
Učinkovitost tržnih mehanizmov v boju proti podnebnim spremembam
Market-based instruments for the environment
Ob se mora upoštevati tudi skrite stroške proizvodnje in potrošnje, ki vplivajo na zdravje ljudi in okoljske spremembe.
MEPs stress, however, that these instruments cannot be a substitute for environmental legislation, which lays down targets to be achieved and standards to be complied with, and that their effectiveness depends on how they are coordinated with and complement other instruments.
Načelo "plača povzročitelj obremenitve" predstavlja enega od stebrov okoljske politike EU, kar pomeni, da so v tržne cene vključeni tudi zunanji, dejanski proizvodni stroški ali škoda, povzročena okolju in zdravju.
MEPs also take the view that social consequences resulting from the implementation of MBIs should be compensated for by specific policy measures such as floor prices, rate reductions, subsidies etc. for low-income households.
Načelo omogoča določitev prave cene izdelka, saj se lahko vanjo vključijo tudi stroški za čiščenje onesnaženja in povračilo škode, ki jo je povzročila njegova proizvodnja.
MEPs particularly support proposals to allow Member States to reduce VAT rates or offer tax credits for energy efficient products and energy saving materials.
Parlament obžaluje, da je v večini članic izvajanje načela pomanjkljivo, povezanost z obstoječimi instrumenti okoljske politike pa slaba ali nikakršna.
Member States are, therefore, called upon to make progress on the issue of environmental taxation at European level in order to prevent all forms of fiscal dumping.
Med državami so tudi velike razlike pri okoljskem obdavčevanju (med 2 in 5 odstotki BDP) in pri uporabi tržnih instrumentov.
Members stress the urgent need for a revision of the EU ETS, which currently has too narrow a field of application given the numerous greenhouse gas (GHG) sources and sectors involved.
Delež okoljskih dajatev v državnih proračunih se je zato v zadnjih petih letih zmanjšal.
The European Parliament believes that an increased use of MBIs in the transport sector is particularly important in order to fully internalise the environmental and social costs of all transport modes.
Parlamentarci pozivajo Komisijo, naj razvije jasno strategijo o uporabi tržnih instrumentov, oceni okoljsko škodo in odpravi tržne nepopolnosti.
The Commission is called upon to present, by 2009, a legislative proposal for GHG reduction in the area of maritime transport, which is not currently subject to any Community or international legislation in this area.
Med ukrepe je treba vključiti obdavčenje, pregled sistema EU za trgovanje z izpusti toplogrednih plinov ter trgovinsko in tehnološko politiko.
The report also welcomes the Commission's proposal to include aviation activities in the EU ETS, but considers that parallel and complementary measures, such as a kerosene tax and NOx emission charges, are necessary in order to address the climate change impacts from this sector.
Tako bo mogoče odpraviti številne za okolje škodljive subvencije v posameznih članicah, ki poleg negativnih vplivov na okolje tudi ogrožajo izpolnjevanje načela "plača povzročitelj obremenitve".
In addition, MEPs call for the revision of the Energy Taxation Directive to be carried out rapidly, and in conjunction with that on heavy goods vehicles, in order to bring about a rapid reorientation towards environment conscious behaviour in the various sectors of the economy.
Države članice morajo tudi doseči napredek pri okoljskem obdavčevanju na evropski ravni ter s tem preprečiti davčni damping.
Members also call on the Commission to rapidly propose a roadmap for the gradual, but rapid, abolition of EHS in accordance with the European Council’s decision on the review of the sustainable development strategy.
Poslanci so še podprli znižanje davka na delo na nacionalni ravni in obenem poudarili, da znižanje ne sme biti vezano le na reformo okoljskega davka.
Lastly, the report calls on the European Union to distinguish gross economic wealth per inhabitant from net economic, social and environmental wealth as the true progress indicator (TPI).

Strategija evropskih politik za leto 2009
MEPs set out priorities for 2009 including reducing administrative burdens
Evropski parlament je v četrtek s 304 glasovi za, 240 proti in 23 vzdržanimi glasovi sprejel resolucijo o letni strategiji politik Komisije za leto 2009.
In adopting a joint resolution on the Commission’s Annual Policy Strategy for 2009, MEPs support Commission proposals aimed at reducing administrative burdens, recalls its determination to reach, and support for reaching, the goal of a 25% reduction in administrative burdens by 2012, and urges tangible results sooner rather than later.
Poslanci strategijo podpirajo, vendar želijo hitrejši napredek pri izvajanju Lizbonske strategije, predvsem pri odpravi birokratskih ovir in varstvu pravic potrošnikov.
The House regards this as a key priority, in particular for SMEs, and as an essential contribution to reaching the Lisbon targets.
Parlament v svojem dokumentu vnovič izpostavlja pomen medsebojne odvisnosti gospodarskega, družbenega in okoljskega napredka pri oblikovanju dinamičnega in inovativnega trajnostnega gospodarstva kot enega od ciljev Lizbonske strategije.
Parliament urge the Commission to submit a legislative proposal on the European Private Company Statute and draw attention to the need for an overall review together with a review of the General Product Safety Directive.
Opozarjajo tudi, da je treba skupaj s pregledom direktive o splošni varnosti proizvodov opraviti še splošen pregled in zagovarjajo doslednost pri prenosu ključnih direktiv o notranjem trgu, zlasti direktive o storitvah, v zakonodajo držav članic.
The House points to the overriding importance of safeguarding the stability of financial markets and reassuring consumers in the light of the current financial crisis.
Glede na sedanjo finančno krizo je nadvse pomembno ohraniti stabilnost finančnih trgov in pomiriti potrošnike.
MEPs note that the current crisis shows the need for the European Union to develop oversight measures in order to increase investor transparency, establish better valuation standards, improve prudential supervision and rate the role of rating agencies.
Kriza je tudi pokazala, da mora Unija razviti ukrepe za nadzor nad delovanjem trgov, da bi okrepila preglednost vlagateljev, izboljšala standarde vrednotenja, bonitetnega nadzora in vlogo bonitetnih agencij.
Parliament also points out that the EP will be examining the consequences of the recent ECJ ruling on the Viking, Laval and Rüffert cases, starting with a debate in plenary, followed by Parliament’s report on challenges to collective bargaining.
Parlament še obžaluje, da Komisija v letni strategiji politik za leto 2009 pripisuje tako malo pomena vprašanjem s področja kulture in izobraževanja in jo poziva, naj okrepi evropski izobraževalni prostor.
MEPs regret the low priority given by the Commission to culture and education matters in the 2009 Annual Policy Strategy.
Podnebne spremembe in trajnostna Evropa
Inclusion of maritime and inland waterway in emissions trading scheme
Pozdravlja tudi željo po zmanjšanju izpustov, ki nastajajo zaradi prevoza blaga, ter poziva Komisijo, naj predloži zakonodajni predlog o vključitvi morskih in celinskih plovnih poti v sistem trgovanja z izpusti toplogrednih plinov.
The House welcomes the Commission’s wish to reduce emissions related to the transport of goods and calls on the Commission to submit a legislative proposal on the inclusion of maritime and inland waterway transport in the emissions trading scheme.
Kohezijska politika mora po mnenju poslancev ostati skupna politika v skladu z evropskimi pogodbami in načelom solidarnosti, zato zavračajo vse poskuse za ponovni prenos te politike v nacionalni okvir.
Parliament takes the view that cohesion policy should remain a Community policy in accordance with the Treaty and the solidarity principle, and therefore rejects all attempts to renationalise this policy.
Državljani na prvem mestu
Cross-border healthcare directive awaited
Poslanci kmalu pričakujejo predlog Komisije o čezmejnem zdravstvenem varstvu, pri čemer pa bo treba spoštovati pristojnost držav članic na tem področju.
The European Parliament awaits the Commission’s proposal on cross-border health, whilst underlining that the Member States’ competences in this area must be respected.
