M whereas the successful conclusion of the EU-Mercosur Association Agreement must contribute to economic growth and poverty reduction, with a view to achieving the Millennium Development Goals, especially those relating to poverty reduction, fair and equitable redistribution of wealth, creation of stable employment based on quality jobs, and the social inclusion of excluded groups,
N. ker je EU glavni naložbeni in trgovinski partner Mercosurja in ker je od leta 2000 menjava med obema regijama postopoma narasla od uravnoteženega stanja do presežka Mercosurja v višini približno 10.000 milijonov evrov v letu 2004,
N. whereas the EU is Mercosur’s main investment and trading partner and whereas since 2000 trade between the two regions has gradually increased from a balanced situation to a Mercosur surplus of about EUR 10 000 million in 2004,
O. ker je Mercosur trenutno upravičen do splošnega sistema preferencialov, ki ga EU odobri državam z nižjimi stopnjami dohodka,

1. poudarja, da je sklenitev pridružitvenega sporazuma z Mercosurjem, s katerim bo vzpostavljeno največje medregionalno območje proste trgovine na svetu, prednostni strateški cilj zunanjih odnosov EU v mednarodnem okviru, ki ga zaznamujejo povečana soodvisnost, gospodarska rast, pojav novih gospodarskih sil in naraščajoče število svetovnih izzivov, ki presegajo nacionalne meje, kot so varnost, upravljanje svetovnega gospodarstva, okolje in zmanjševanje revščine;
Stresses that the conclusion of an Association Agreement with Mercosur, establishing the largest interregional free-trade area in the world, is a priority strategic objective for the EU's external relations, in an international context characterised by increased interdependence, economic growth, the emergence of new economic powers, and an increasing number of global challenges which transcend national borders, among them security, world economic governance, the environment and poverty reduction;
4. meni, da bi bila sklenitev pridružitvenega sporazuma EU-Mercosur odločilna spodbuda za srednjeročno vzpostavitev evro-latinskoameriškega območja globalnega medregionalnega partnerstva, ki jo je Parlament predlagal v omenjeni resoluciji z dne 27. aprila 2006;

Welcomes the fact that the Commission, in its above-mentioned communication on a stronger partnership between the European Union and Latin America, continues to see regional integration as a priority dimension of support for development in Latin America; insists, in the interests of not undermining the regional integration processes, that the modulated dialogue mechanisms must not be detrimental to the overall vision of regional integration, especially in the case of Mercosur;

9. poudarja, da je za razliko od dogajanja v Latinski Ameriki kot celoti, kjer je uvoz iz ZDA trikrat večji kot uvoz iz EU, delež v Mercosurju približno 25 % v primerjavi s 20 % iz ZDA;
Points out that, unlike what is happening in Latin America as a whole, where US imports are three times higher than those from the EU, in Mercosur the EU quota is about 25 % compared with 20 % from the United States;

18. opominja, da je zaradi reforme skupne kmetijske politike v letu 2003 EU občutno zmanjšala nacionalne subvencije, ki so izkrivljale trgovino, in v zvezi s tem v okviru kroga v Dohi prosila konkretne obveze drugih trgovinskih partnerjev;
Recalls that, under the 2003 CAP reform, the EU has substantially reduced its trade-distorting national subsidies and has asked for concrete undertakings along the same lines from other trading partners in the framework of the Doha Round;
21. poziva Komisijo, naj bo med dvoregionalnimi pogajanji Evropske unije na tem območju pazljiva glede zahtev naših partnerjev iz Mercosurja za preferencialen dostop na tržišče bioetanola Skupnosti;

Draws attention to the importance of achieving real improvements regarding the liberalisation undertakings thus far agreed and applied and the need for a clear and stable regulatory framework for the free movement of capital and in particular of financial services, as in activities related to telecommunications and maritime and air transport;
34. poudarja, da je vprašanje dolga in posojil še vedno ena glavnih ovir za racionalizacijo javne uprave in gospodarski napredek Mercosurja ter da bi moralo biti ključno poglavje v sodelovanju med dvema regijama;
Points out that the question of debt and lending is still one of the main obstacles to rationalising public administration and economic progress in Mercosur, and that it should be an essential chapter in cooperation between the two regions;

45. meni, da je v sedanjem sporazumu o sodelovanju politični dialog okrepljen z natančnejšimi mehanizmi ter da je poudarjena potreba po spoštovanju človekovih pravic in dobrem upravljanju, vendar vztraja, da je še vedno treba zagotoviti, da bo poglavje o sodelovanju učinkovito pri izkoreninjanju revščine in skladno z ostalimi instrumenti razvojne politike EU v Latinski Ameriki; poudarja, da je v končnem sporazumu treba ohraniti ravnotežje med trgovino in razvojem, ne da bi poglavja o trgovini nasprotovala tistim o razvoju;
Considers that, in the current cooperation agreement, political dialogue is strengthened with more detailed mechanisms, and the need to respect human rights and good governance is stressed, but insists that it is still necessary to ensure that the cooperation chapter is efficient in eradicating poverty and is coherent with other EU development policy instruments in Latin America; emphasises the need to maintain a balance between trade and development in the final agreement, without the trade chapters contradicting the development ones;
1. , skupne izjave Sveta in predstavnikov vlad držav članic, ki se sestajajo v okviru Sveta, ter Evropskega parlamenta in Komisije o razvojni politiki Evropske unije in da so potrebni nadaljnji napori za boj proti slabemu vodenju komercialnih in javnih storitev;

Calls on the Commission to establish operational support measures for enterprises, their employees and their representatives in both regions, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, for economic and social relations between the EU and Mercosur;
55. meni, da bi moralo poglavje o sodelovanju pridružitvenega sporazuma z Mercosurjem spodbujati tesnejše regionalno sodelovanje na področju energetike, še posebej glede na prihodnji pristop Venezuele, s čimer naj bi povečali energetsko varnost in učinkovitost ter spodbudili uporabo obnovljivih energetskih virov;
Believes that the cooperation chapter of the Association Agreement with Mercosur should encourage closer regional cooperation in the energy sector , particularly in view of the future accession of Venezuela, with a view to promoting safe and efficient energy use and increasing the use of renewables;

Role of Parliament
64. meni, da morajo vse evropske institucije tesno sodelovati, da bi prišli do zadovoljivih rezultatov pogajanj z Mercosurjem, in zato poziva Svet in Komisijo, naj se z njim posvetujeta ter ga ustrezno in pravočasno obveščata o strategiji EU v pogajanjih z Mercosurjem; poziva Komisijo, naj po vsakem pomembnejšem srečanju ali krogu pogajanj Parlamentu posreduje obrazložitev rezultatov pogajanj, v skladu z veljavnimi pravili o zaupnosti;
Stresses the need for close cooperation by all the EU institutions in order to obtain satisfactory results in the negotiations with Mercosur; calls on the Council and Commission, therefore, to consult and inform Parliament in proper and timely fashion on the EU's strategy in those negotiations; asks the Commission, at the end of each round or significant negotiating meeting, to forward a document to Parliament describing the results obtained, subject to the confidentiality rules in force;
Glavni cilj poročila, sestavljenega iz štirih delov, je po dolgoletnih pogovorih in večmesečnem zastoju spodbuditi zaključek pogajanj o pridružitvenem sporazumu z Mercosurjem, ki bo ustvaril največje območje proste trgovine med svetovnimi regijami.
To move towards the conclusion of the negotiations for an Association Agreement with Mercosur, which would create the world's largest interregional free-trade area, is now, after years of negotiations followed by months of stagnation, the main objective which the (four-part) text of this report aims to further.
V prvem delu so razčlenjeni razlogi za pridružitveni sporazum, pri čemer je posebna pozornost namenjena koristim, ki jih bo imela Evropska unija od območja proste trgovine z Mercosurjem, in trenutnemu stanju pogajanj ter njihovi povezanosti s krogom v Dohi.
The first part examines the background to the Association Agreement, paying particular attention to the EU's interest in creating a free-trade area (FTA) with Mercosur and to the state of play of the negotiations and their relationship to the Doha Round.
V drugem delu so natančneje raziskane glavne smernice trgovinskih pogajanj.
The second part considers, more specifically, the main elements of the trade negotiations.
Tretji del pa se posveča sodelovanju v okviru prihodnjega sporazuma, zlasti poglavju o gospodarskem sodelovanju.
The third part highlights the cooperation chapter of the future agreement, especially the economic cooperation aspect.
Čeprav je poglavje o sodelovanju prihodnjega pridružitvenega sporazuma skoraj zaključeno, je sodelovanje še vedno zelo občutljiva tema v času, ko so pogajanja o novih finančnih instrumentih sodelovanja v polnem razmahu in Komisija pripravlja nove dokumente o strategiji sodelovanja s tretjimi državami za obdobje 2007–2013.
Even if the cooperation chapter of the Association is now all but sealed, cooperation remains a highly sensitive area, at a time when the new financial instruments for cooperation are in course of being negotiated and the Commission is finalising the new documents for the strategy for cooperation with third countries for the period 2007-2013.
Četrti del poročila obravnava vlogo Parlamenta v pogajanjih o sporazumu.
Finally, the fourth part offers comments on the role of Parliament in the negotiation of the agreement.
Zgodovinski potek pogajanj o pridružitvenem sporazumu in okoliščine
Background to the negotiations for an Association Agreement and contextual elements
Pri ovrednotenju potekajočih pogajanj z Mercosurjem je treba poleg strogo trgovinskih vidikov na prvem mestu poudariti strateško vrednost, ki jo ima partnerstvo z Mercosurjem za zunanje odnose EU v mednarodnem kontekstu, ki ga zaznamujejo rastoča soodvisnost, pojav novih gospodarskih sil in naraščajoče število svetovnih izzivov, ki presegajo nacionalne meje, kot so varnost, upravljanje svetovnega gospodarstva, okolje in zmanjševanje revščine.
Evaluation of the ongoing negotiations with Mercosur needs to start, even beyond the purely commercial aspects, by stressing the strategic importance of the partnership with Mercosur for the EU's external relations, in an international context marked by ever-greater interdependence, the emergence of new economic powers, and a growing number of global challenges which transcend national borders, such as security, world economic governance, the environment and poverty reduction.
Poleg teh skupnih izzivov imata Evropska unija in Mercosur tudi skupno prepričanje, da je regionalno povezovanje temelj gospodarskega in socialnega razvoja njunih držav članic in bistven instrument za utrjevanje demokracije, zmanjševanje revščine in neenakosti ter okrepitev vloge obeh regij na svetovnem prizorišču.
The EU and Mercosur share, apart from those common challenges, the firm conviction that regional integration is the cornerstone of their peoples' economic and social development, as well as being a key instrument for consolidating democracy, reducing poverty and inequality, and strengthening the profile of both regions on the world stage.
Ravno na podlagi globokih kulturnih in zgodovinskih vezi ter strateškega potenciala te povezave se je na 1. vrhu voditeljev držav in vlad EU in Mercosurja, ki je potekal junija 1999 v Riu de Janeiru, porodila zamisel o celovitem pridružitvenem sporazumu med EU in Mercosurjem, ki bo vključeval območje proste trgovine.
It was, precisely, the existence of deep cultural and historical connections, combined with the relationship's strategic potential, that gave rise to the idea of negotiating an EU-Mercosur Association Agreement that would include a free-trade area, at the First Summit of EU and Mercosur Heads of State and Government, held in Rio de Janeiro in June 1999.
Poleg tega naj bi ta sporazum bistveno pripomogel k nadaljnjemu uresničevanju obvez za okrepitev strateškega partnerstva med regijama EU in Latinsko Ameriko, ki ga Parlament spodbuja ter je bilo sklenjeno in potrjeno na več vrhih EU in Latinske Amerike.
Furthermore, such an Association Agreement would constitute a fundamental pillar in the context of moving forward with the joint commitment to reinforcing the EU-Latin America biregional strategic partnership, as promoted by Parliament and agreed and endorsed at the various EU- Latin America summits.
Institucionalne odnose med EU in Mercosurjem je doslej urejal okvirni sporazum o sodelovanju med regijama, ki je bil podpisan decembra 1995.
Institutional relations between the EU and Mercosur have been governed up till now by the interregional framework cooperation agreement signed in December 1995.
V tem sporazumu je predvidena postopna in vzajemna liberalizacija celotne trgovine , ki je strani spodbudila k zamisli o vzpostavitvi območja proste trgovine v okviru pridružitvenega sporazuma.
This agreement advocated the gradual and reciprocal liberalisation of all trade , and as a result the two sides proposed the creation of a free-trade area (FTA) within the framework of an Association Agreement.
Od junija 1999, ko je bil ta pogajalski mandat potrjen, se je zvrstilo 16 pogajalskih krogov.
Since the approval in June 1999 of the negotiating mandate, 16 negotiating rounds have taken place.
Septembra 2004, ko je že kazalo, da bi pogajanja lahko končali, se strani nista sporazumeli in pogajanja so bila ustavljena iz "tehničnih razlogov".
After several years' negotiations and at a moment when all the signs were that the negotiations could be concluded in September 2004, the parties failed to reach agreement and the negotiations were declared 'technically blocked'.
Na svetovnem gospodarskem forumu v Davosu (januarja 2005) pa sta brazilski predsednik in predsednik Evropske komisije pokazala skupen interes, da bi pogajanja o pridružitvenem sporazumu zaključili pred iztekom pogajanj v Dohi.
More recently, at the World Economic Forum held in Davos (January 2005), the President of Brazil and the President of the European Commission expressed their joint interest in concluding the negotiations for the Association Agreement before the end of the Doha Round.
Kljub temu se te ideje niso uresničile.
These intentions, however, have not been vindicated by reality.
Na srečanju ministrov EU-Mercosur med vrhom EU/LAK, ki je bil 12. in 13. maja 2006 na Dunaju, se je potrdilo, da so trgovinska pogajanja z Mercosurjem časovno podrejena zaključku kroga v Dohi.
The meeting of EU and Mercosur ministers which took place during the EU/LAC summit held in Vienna (12-13 May 2006) appears to have confirmed the subordination in time of the trade negotiations with Mercosur to the conclusion of the Doha Round.
Glede na zaostanek v pogajanjih, in ker je treba doseči veljavne skupne parametre glede občutljivih tem sporazuma, poročevalec vztrajno poudarja, da so nujne večje obveze, politična pobuda na čim višji ravni in vzpostavitev dokončnega časovnega razporeda, ki bo omogočal zaključek pogajanj v čim krajšem času.
With the negotiations dragging on in this way, your rapporteur wishes to insist, given the urgency of agreeing on workable and shared parameters for the agreement's sensitive issues, on the importance of greater political commitment and encouragement at the highest level and the need for a final timetable for the swiftest possible conclusion of the negotiations.
Koristi območja proste trgovine z Mercosurjem za Evropsko unijo
The EU's interests and a free-trade area with Mercosur
Pred pregledom trenutnega stanja trgovinskih pogajanj o sporazumu z Mercosurjem je poročevalec, poleg strateških elementov zunanje politike, poudaril glavne prednosti, ki bi jih območje proste trgovine prineslo Evropski uniji, in načela, ki bi jih morali upoštevati pri pogajanjih.
Before examining the state of play of the negotiations for the agreement with Mercosur, your rapporteur wishes to stress, as well as the strategic external policy factors, the main EU interests at stake over a free-trade area and the principles which should govern the negotiations.
Z območjem proste trgovine z Mercosurjem, ki je največji trg Latinske Amerike s 45-odstotnim deležem PDB, bi vzpostavili največje območje proste trgovine med svetovnimi regijami, ustvarili poslovne priložnosti velikega pomena in spodbudili obojestransko gospodarsko rast ter obenem izboljšali mednarodno konkurenčnost obeh trgov.
An FTA with Mercosur, the most important market of Latin American with 45% of its GDP, would create the world's biggest interregional free-trade area and would generate major opportunities for both sides in terms of business and economic growth, while also boosting the international competitiveness of both markets.
Območje proste trgovine EU-Mercosur bi poleg tega utrdilo vodilni položaj, ki ga ima EU kot glavna sovlagateljica in trgovinska partnerka Mercosurja, poleg tega pa ne smemo pozabiti na pobudo o liberalizaciji trgovine na ameriški celini v okviru območja proste trgovine Amerik (FTAA) ter možnosti širjenja in odpiranja Mercosurja na azijske trge.
An FTA would also reinforce the EU's leading role as Mercosur's biggest investment and trade partner, in the face of the FTAA initiative for trade liberalisation in the Americas and Mercosur's own expansion and opening-up to the Asian markets.
V nasprotju s celotno Latinsko Ameriko, kjer je uvoz iz ZDA trikrat večji od uvoza iz EU, se pri Mercosurju delež uvoza iz Evropske unije giblje okrog 25 %, kar je treba še utrditi in povečati, medtem ko iz ZDA pride 20 % uvoza Mercosurja.
In contrast to the pattern for Latin America as a whole, with imports from the US being three times higher than those from the EU, in the case of Mercosur the EU's share - which still needs to be consolidated and increased - stands at 25%, compared with 20% for the US.
V skladu z izkušnjami iz pridružitvenih sporazumov z Mehiko in Čilom poročevalec poudarja, da je območje proste trgovine ključnega pomena, da dosežemo večjo prisotnost Evrope in preprečimo, da bi se Mercosur preusmeril na druge trge.
Thus, and taking account of our experience with the Association Agreements with Mexico and Chile, your rapporteur stresses that a free-trade area is vital if Europe's presence is to be consolidated while avoiding a reorientation of Mercosur towards other markets.
Za konkretnejšo predstavo, v študijah o vplivu vzpostavitve območja proste trgovine EU-Mercosur, ki jih je oddelek za Mercosur Inštituta za politične študije v Parizu izvedel za poslovni forum Mercosur-EU (MEBF), so stroške v primeru, da do sporazuma ne pride, ocenili na vsaj 3,7 milijarde EUR na leto iz blagovne menjave in več kot 5 milijard EUR, če upoštevamo naložbe in storitve.
More concretely, according to studies on the impact of creating a EU-Mercosur free-trade area carried out by the Mercosur section of the Institute of Political Studies in Paris for the Mercosur-EU Business Forum (MEBF), the costs of not reaching an agreement are estimated to be at least EUR 3.7 bn per annum in trade in goods, rising to over EUR 5 bn if one includes investment and services.
Pogajanja o območju proste trgovine z Mercosurjem
The negotiations for a free-trade area with Mercosur
Kljub priporočilom Parlamenta za ločitev pogajanj o sporazumu z Mercosurjem in pogajanj STO v okviru kroga v Dohi je bilo zaradi zamud pogajanja z Mercosurjem treba časovno podrediti razvoju in rezultatom pogajanj v okviru kroga v Dohi.
Despite Parliament's recommendations that negotiation of the agreement with Member State should be decoupled from the WTO's Doha Round, the delays in the negotiations with Mercosur have led to their temporary de facto subordination to the development and finalisation of the Doha Round.
