Marca se je na španskih Kanarskih otokih srečalo 78 članov skupščine, ki so razpravljali predvsem o migracijah iz svetovnega juga na sever ter sporazumu med EU in južnoameriškimi državami o trgovini z bananami.
The assembly, comprising 78 MEPs and 78 MPs from African, Caribbean and Pacific nations met at the end of March in the Canary Islands to discuss South-North migration, a new EU-Latin America agreement on bananas and the situation in Southern Sudan.
Kanarski otoki so ena izmed vrat v EU za migrante iz podsaharske Afrike.
Mr Michel told us more.
O tem ste lahko razpravljali z vašimi kolegi iz držav ACP, srečali pa ste se tudi z mladimi senegalskimi glasbeniki, ki so na te otoke prišli po morju.
The Canary Islands are a gateway to the EU for migrants from sub-Saharan Africa and you have just met a group of young Senegalese singers who arrived by sea.
Menite, da bi morali začeti razmišljati o sistemu začasnih migracij, da bi se lažje soočili s tem izzivom?
Do you think we should have "temporary migration" to deal with this problem?
Dejstvo, da se je parlamentarna skupščina odvijala na Kanarskih otokih, je simbolično.
The fact that the plenary session of the Assembly is being held in the Canary Islands is symbolic.
S svojimi kolegi iz držav ACP smo se lahko o tem pogovarjali brez zadržkov, pri čemer smo želeli idejo, da je Evropa obljubljena dežela za migrante, postaviti v kontekst.
We discussed the issue with our ACP counterparts arguing against the idea, much too widespread in Africa, that Europe is a paradise for immigrants.
Večino časa se migranti ne zavedajo, kaj jih čaka: nevarno potovanje, po prihodu pa delovni pogoji, ki niso ne varni, ne pravični.
Most immigrants have no idea that the journey will be so perilous and that once they arrive, working conditions may be precarious and unfair.
Poleg tega je močno prisotna tudi ksenofobija.
In addition, they may face xenophobia.
Migranti poskušajo svojcem posredovati olepšano sliko svojega življenja v Evropi.
Migrants are often tempted to give their families an rose-tinted image of their life in Europe.
Pomembno je torej, in parlamentarci lahko k temu pripomorejo, dati prave informacije o tem, kakšno je to življenje.
It is important, and we parliamentarians can contribute here, to make the reality clear.
Večina migrantov namreč v državo pride zakonito, po izteku veljavnosti vize pa potonejo v ilegalo.
Most migrants arrive legally but become illegal when their visa expires.
Prepričan sem, da če bi imeli zagotovila o ponovni vrnitvi, bi migranti bili veliko bolj pripravljeni vrniti se v svoje domače države.
I am convinced that if they had the assurance of being able to re-enter legally, they would be readier to return home.
Kanarski otoki so v EU velik proizvajalec banan, enako pa velja tudi za države ACP.
The Canary Islands and the ACP countries are major banana producers.
Kakšen bi lahko bil po vašem mnenju učinek nedavnega sporazuma med EU in južnoameriškimi državami o trgovini z bananami, ki bo povečal privlačnost južnoameriških banan za evropske potrošnike?
What will the impact of the recent agreement aimed at increasing the competitiveness of South American bananas be?
Pozdravljam ta sporazum, saj je končal petnajstletno vojno banan.
I welcome this agreement, which ends the 15-year "banana war".
Vem, da se nekateri bojijo posledic sporazuma, vendar bi jih rad pomiril in razložil, da imamo na voljo ukrepe, namenjene za pomoč državam ACP, tako da se bodo te lažje prilagodile novemu stanju.
I know there are some concerns about the consequences, but measures will be taken to help ACP countries adapt.
Ti ukrepi so prilagojeni potrebam vsake države, oblikovani pa so v sodelovanju med ACP in EU.
These will be tailored to each country, identified and developed by the ACP in consultation with the EU as part of the broader agriculture and development strategy.
Države ACP bodo še vedno uživale dostop do evropskega trga brez kvot in carin.
ACP countries will always have free access to European markets.

Ana Gomes: Alternativa volitvam v Sudanu bi bila vojna
"The alternative to elections in Sudan would be war" - Ana Gomes
Aprilske volitve pogoj za organizacijo referenduma o neodvisnosti juga Sudana V Sudanu bodo med 11. in 13. aprilom potekale predsedniške, parlamentarne in lokalne volitve.
Ana Gomes Sudan elections 11-13 April Referendum on independence of Southern Sudan January 2011 War-torn Sudan is due to hold its first democratic presidential, local and legislative elections since 1986.
Vprašanje pa je, ali bodo te volitve v državi, ki jo že več let pretresajo oboroženi konflikti, demokratične.
But will the 11-13 April elections really be democratic?
Možne volilne prevare in opozicijske grožnje z bojkotom kažejo na to, da bodo imeli volilni opazovalci Evropskega parlamenta, ki jih vodi Ana Gomes (S&amp;D, PT), veliko dela.
There are fears of manipulation, a number of opposition parties are boycotting them and, following threats, the EU decided Wednesday to withdraw election observers from Darfur.
EU je zaradi nevarnosti opazovalce sicer že umaknila iz sudanske pokrajine Darfur.
We spoke to Portuguese Socialist Ana Gomes who is heading Parliament's observation mission.
Režim sudanskega predsednika al-Baširja obtožujejo, da skuša na volitvah varati.
President Omar al-Bashir's regime is accused of trying to manipulate the elections.
Obstaja možnost, da bodo volitve svobodne in demokratične?
Is there any chance that they will take place in a free and democratic manner?
Nekatere stranke so oznanile, da bodo volitve bojkotirale, nekatere se zavzemajo za odložitev volitev, druge bodo na volitvah sodelovale, če ne na vseh, pa vsaj na nekaterih, saj bodo hkrati potekale predsedniške, parlamentarne in lokalne volitve.
Some parties are boycotting the elections and some have called for them to be postponed, but others are still in the running, at least for some of the polls.
Državna volilna komisija volitev ni odpovedala ali odložila.
The elections have not been cancelled or postponed by the National Electoral Commission.
Pozorno spremljamo dogajanje, vse je še mogoče.
We are watching closely to see what happens.
Naš cilj je pridobiti informacije iz prve roke, če seveda volitve bodo.
Our objective is to have first-hand, direct observation, if elections take place.
Te informacije bomo potem ovrednotili in svetu povedali, kaj smo slišali in videli.
Then we will evaluate everything and tell the world what we have heard and seen.
Zato se danes, v skladu z načrti, tudi odpravljamo v Kartum, čeprav so novice iz Sudana zmedene in pretresljive.
This is why we are heading to Khartoum Thursday as initially planned, despite all the confusing and disturbing news.
Te volitve so za Afriko pomembne, saj gre za usodo Sudana, največje afriške države.
These elections are important for Africa, because the future of Sudan, Africa's largest country, is in question.
Volitve so eden izmed elementov mirovnega sporazuma iz leta 2005, ki je končal 50-letno vojno, v kateri je umrlo več kot dva milijona ljudi.
These elections are part of the CPA (Comprehensive Peace Agreement) of 2005, which ended a 50-year war in which over 2 million people died.
So korak k referendumu, tudi delu omenjenega sporazuma, na katerem se bodo prebivalci juga države januarja 2011 odločali o neodvisnosti.
They are a necessary step for the referendum on the independence of Southern Sudan scheduled for January.
Alternativa bi lahko bila vojna in nihče noče, da bi vojna v Sudanu ponovno vzplamtela.
The alternative could be war and nobody wants to see that.
Sudan je največja afriška država, v kateri se govori veliko jezikov.
Sudan is the biggest country in Africa with many languages.
Misija Evropskega parlamenta je bolj kratkoročna in se osredotoča bolj na proceduralna vprašanja volitev.
The EP observation mission is short-term and more focused on how the elections proceed.
Povedali bomo resnico o tem, kar se bo zgodilo.
We will be faithful to our mandate by telling the truth about what happens.
Samo tako bomo lahko izboljšali verodostojnost EU, posebej v očeh Sudancev, ki želijo v svoji državi demokracijo in vladavino prava.
Only in this way will we enhance Europe's credibility, in particular in the eyes of the Sudanese who want democracy and the rule of law.
Nekdanji sudanski uporniki iz Sudanskega ljudskega osvobodilnega gibanja (SPLM), ki so sedaj del vladajoče koalicije, bodo bojkotirali nekatere volitve, saj menijo, da sta tveganje prevar in nevarnost prevelika.
The Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM, ex-rebels from the South of the country, now part of the governmental coalition) will boycott some of the elections because of the risk of fraud and insecurity.
SPLM je napovedal, da bo umaknil svojega kandidata iz predsedniških volitev, prav tako pa ne bo nastopil na volitvah v Darfurju.
Could that threaten January's referendum on Southern Sudan?
Sodeloval pa bo na parlamentarnih, regionalnih in občinskih volitvah.
The SPLM has withdrawn its presidential candidate and won't run in Darfur, but will stand for legislative, regional and municipal elections.
SPLM in večina juga države hoče, da te volitve uspejo, saj razumejo, da je z njimi povezan januarski referendum.
The SPLM and most people in the South want the elections because they see a connection with the referendum foreseen for January 2011.
To je razlog, zakaj si kljub vsem težavam in tveganjem želijo volitve.
That is why, despite all the problems and risks, they want these elections to take place.
In to je eden izmed razlogov, zakaj bi morali biti Evropejci tam, da opazujemo in neodvisno ocenimo volitve ter naše ocene delimo s svetom.
And it is one reason why we Europeans should be there to observe, evaluate independently and share our assessment with the world.
O pomenu volitev v Sudanu z Veronique de Keyser, vodjo opazovalne misije EU v Sudanu, in Thabom Mbekijem, nekdanjim južnoafriškim predsednikom Salih Mahmud Osman: Kitajska je gluha in slepa za človekove pravice v Darfurju

Umetnost dopolnila
The Art of the Amendment
Kako deluje EP - dopolnila V prvem branju v odboru lahko dopolnilo vloži vsak poslanec "Pogajanja med poslanci o vsebini dopolnil so v središču parlamentarnega življenja."
EuroparlTV on basic facts about amendments All MEPs can table amendments during first reading In plenary amendment come from committees and groups Amendments are a key way to influence and change EU law.
Potem, ko se evropski zakonodajni akt enkrat znajde v Evropskem parlamentu, lahko poslanci nanj najučinkoviteje vplivajo z dopolnili - če seveda uspejo o njihovi upravičenosti prepričati dovolj svojih kolegov.
It's a way for MEPs to bring into play the interests of voters, lobbyists, non-governmental organisations and other interest groups.
Na ta način lahko poslanci uravnotežijo interese svojih volivk in volivcev, pa tudi lobistov, nevladnih organizacij in drugih skupin.
Some proposals attract many hundreds of amendments, notably the annual budget.
Pri tem pa se morajo držati nekaterih pravil.
But there are strict rules to follow when tabling amendments.
Kaj je dopolnilo?
First of all, what exactly is an amendment?
Kakšen je postopek?
How the system works in the EU
Evropska komisija predlaga evropsko zakonodajo, njeni predlogi najprej potujejo pred pristojni odbor EP, na koncu pa se znajdejo pred poslanci na plenarnem zasedanju, kjer ti o njih glasujejo.
The European Commission proposes draft legislation, which goes first to parliamentary committees and later to plenary.
Vlaganje dopolnila na zakonodajni predlog je običajno rezultat posvetovanj in sodelovanja med poslanci, političnimi svetovalci, lobisti, interesnimi skupinami in vsemi tistimi, ki želijo vplivati na vsebino evropske zakonodaje.
Tabling amendments typically involves interaction between MEPs, political advisors, EU institutions, lobbyists, interest groups, NGOs etc, all of whom want to influence EU laws.
Ria Oomen-Ruijten (EPP, NL) razlaga, da dopolnila vlaga v posvetovanju s svetovalci v svoji politični skupini, posluša pa tudi argumente interesnih skupin.
Dutch Christian Democrat Ria Oomen-Ruijten said she comes up with amendments "in consultation with an advisor to the (political) group, but also hears from interest groups.
"Na ta način si ustvarim mnenje," pravi.
On this basis I form my opinion.
Kdo lahko vloži dopolnilo in kako?
This is how we change law and shape policy."
Na plenarnem zasedanju lahko dopolnilo vloži odbor, politična skupina ali 40 poslancev.
When a law comes to plenary , amendments can be proposed by a committee, a political group or 40-plus MEPs.
Ustna dopolnila se vlagajo le redko, saj bi to oviralo gladek potek zasedanj odborov in Parlamenta.
MEPs can also make oral amendments, but these are used much less as they can interfere with the smooth running or the clarity of a vote
Poslanec Maňka kot primer dobrega dopolnila izpostavlja dopolnilo o povečanju sredstev za program študentskih izmenjav Erasmus, ki je že več kot dvema milijonoma mladih Evropejcev omogočil študij v tujini in spoznavanje drugih dežel.
He gave increased funding for the Erasmus student exchange programme as a positive example, "thanks to which 2 million European university students have been able to study abroad and get to know the culture of other countries".
Poslanka Oomen-Ruijtenova pa je avtorica dopolnila, ki omogoča Evropejcem, ki živijo zunaj svoje domače države, da zdravniško oskrbo prejemajo doma.
An amendment by Ms Oomen-Ruijten "makes it possible for a European residing in another EU country to receive medical treatment in his home country.
"Nizozemski upokojenci, ki so se preselili v Španijo, se lahko sedaj v primeru bolezni odločijo za obisk zdravnika doma," je pojasnila.
Dutch pensioners who have moved to Spain for example, can now choose to be treated in the Netherlands in case of illness.
Ko pride čas za glasovanje, poslanci najprej glasujejo o dopolnilih, šele nato o celotnem zakonodajnem predlogu.
In such situations it may be nice for your family to be around."

Ponovno SWIFT: Poslanci želijo v ZDA poslati manj podatkov
SWIFT is back: MEPs want to limit transfer of financial data
Evropski poslanci so sicer februarja zavrnili sporazum med EU in ZDA o izmenjavi bančnih podatkov v okviru sistema SWIFT, saj so menili, da ne spoštuje dovolj pravice državljanov EU do zasebnosti.
Parliament forced the re-opening of negotiations by rejecting the previous proposal for an agreement on the transfer of financial data from the European Union to the US for the purposes of the Terrorist Finance Tracking Program in February.
Tako so države EU prisilili k ponovnim pogajanjem z ZDA.
The information was transferred by Belgian based SWIFT, which handles 80% of all international financial transactions.
Evropska komisija je tako že pripravila izhodišča za nova pogajanja, ki jih morajo sprejeti tudi države članice v Svetu EU.
The European Commission came up with new guidelines for negotiations on 24 March, which will be discussed by EU ministers on 23 April.
Potem se bodo lahko začela pogajanja s Komisijo in Svetom na eni in ZDA na drugi strani.
Once ministers OK the mandate, talks with the US can begin.
V skladu z Lizbonsko pogodbo mora sporazum pred vstopom v veljavo potrditi Evropski parlament.
The Commission wants an agreement before the end of June.
Poslanci še naprej kritično
Parliament isn't involved in the negotiations but will vote on the eventual agreement.
"Tudi s tem novim mandatom za pogajanja imamo opraviti s prenosom 90 milijonov podatkov na mesec," je dejala poročevalka, Simon Busuttil (EPP, MT) , pa je menil, da bi se morali tako množičnemu posredovanju podatkov izogniti že takoj na začetku pogajanj.
Dutch Liberal Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, who drafted the report rejecting the previous agreement, complained that "with these guidelines we are still talking about massive data transfers...Even with this new mandate the idea would be to transfer 90 million pieces of data each month."
"Razočarana sem, da Komisija ni preučila drugih možnosti, npr. dvojnega pristopa, kjer bi podatke pred prenosom v ZDA pregledali v Evropi," je dejala Hennis-Plasschaertova.
"We must avoid mass transfers from the beginning," said Simon Busuttil, a Maltese EPP member.
Listina temeljnih pravic ogrožena?
German Socialist Birgit Sippel added, "even the smallest bank is capable of individualising the data."
Poslanci so še opozorili na težave, ki bi jih utegnili imeti državljani EU, če bi se izkazalo, da so ameriške oblasti zlorabile njihove finančne podatke.
"I am a bit disappointed that the Commission has not tried to look for an alternative" like a "double approach" in which data would be examined in Europe before being transferred to the US, Ms Hennis-Plasschaert said.
V zvezi s tem se pojavljajo tudi dvomi, ali bo nov sporazum skladen z Evropsko listino temeljnih pravic in ustavami nekaterih držav EU.
MEPs also asked whether European citizens would be able to appeal to US authorities in the event of an abuse of their personal data and raised concerns that the mandate does not respect the charter of fundamental rights.

Šport v EU: Zdrav duh v zdravem telesu
Q&A with MEPs on sport in Europe
Več športa pomeni bolj kakovostno življenje. ©BELGA_ICONSPORT Evropski parlament naj spodbudi državljane k aktivnejšemu življenju Razlike med severom in jugom Evrope Šport veliko prispeva h kakovosti življenja, to so vedeli že stari Grki in Rimljani.
Hurling in Ireland: Paul Shiels and Paul Cleary battle it out. ©BELGA/Iconsport 0nly 4 out of 10 of Europeans us do sport weekly 1 in 4 never do any sport says survey A recent survey on sport across Europe has raised a few eyebrows about the number of people who take part.
S štirimi evropskimi poslanci in poslankami smo se pogovarjali o tem, kako te razlike zmanjšati.
We put some questions to MEPs about the results of the survey and their attitude towards sport.
Razlog za ukvarjanje s športom je predvsem želja izboljšati svoje zdravje, pravi večina športnikov.
This places an extra strain on our health services as they struggle to undo the damage caused by sedentary lifestyles."
Šport pogoj za kakovost življenja
Italian MEP Iva Zanicchi (EPP): "Sport is important for civil society.
Kar četrtina prebivalcev EU se s športom sploh ne ukvarja, medtem ko se jih 40 odstotkov s športom ukvarja vsaj enkrat na teden.
But families hit by the economic crisis had to cut some 'unnecessary' costs and perhaps in many cases it was decided to cancel the subscription of the gym or the swim club."
"Za dobro počutje in kakovostno življenje je potrebna redna vadba," pravi Repo.
Mitro Repo : "The explanations to Scandinavian "sportiness" can be found both in history as well as in socio-geography.
Geografija je pomembna
Northern Europe is sparsely populated and the distances are long.
"Otroci začnejo s športom že v osnovni šoli, še bolj resno pa se mu posvetijo na univerzi," ugotavlja poslanka.
For example, the Finns are also 'competing' to be the fattest people in the EU..."
Finec Repo pa meni, da je večjo športnost prebivalcev severa Evrope mogoče razložiti s pomočjo zgodovine in geografije.
Chrysoula Paliadeli: "It seems to me that being considered as a luxury, sport is expected to be exercised by people with higher revenues.
"Na severu Evrope je gostota prebivalstva majhna, razdalje pa velike.
Jokes aside, it is clear that the Northern European countries promote sport more.
EU naj zavzame aktivnejšo vlogo
What can the EP and the EU do to encourage Europeans to do more sport?
Evropski parlament bi se moral povezati z društvi na terenu in se ne osredotočati samo na elitni šport, v zvezi s spodbujanjem športa v EU pravi Kelly.
The Parliament needs to connect with organisations at grass-roots level and not just focus on elite sports.
"Parlament, z novimi pristojnostmi, ki mu gredo po Lizbonski pogodbi, bi moral šport postaviti v središče ter se tako povezati z državljani," predlaga irski poslanec.
Finally, as a concrete proposal, I think we should look at adding 'Sport' to the name of the Committee on Culture and Education - this would be a worthwhile acknowledgement that the Parliament takes sport seriously."
Chrysoula Paliadeli (S&D, EL) se s tem strinja.
In this respect, every MEP should lead the way and be a role model.
Ribiči zahtevajo strožja pravila za tujo konkurenco
Fish industry voices concern over foreign fish and falling prices
Sardini ©BELGA_PHOTOALTO_Laurence Mouton Strošek nemškega ribiča je 160 dolarjev na dan, senegalskega pa le 22 "Evropski ribiči lovijo za koše za smeti, ne za potrošnike."
A picture of two sardines. ©BELGA/L Mouton Common Fisheries Policy headed for reform Producers concerned over cheap foreign fish Concerns about foreign fish being sold in Europe and what to do about the future of Europe's fisheries industry were aired in a hearing held by the Fisheries Committee on 8 April.
Preveč intenzivno ribarjenje v vodah Evropske unije je pripeljalo do tega, da je danes ogroženo razplojevanje kar 30 odstotkov ribjih vrst v EU.
Over fishing, plunging stocks and falling prices have created a perfect storm battering the fisheries industry.
Večji ulov rib pa ni rešil težav evropskih ribičev, saj ribiške flote poslujejo ali z izgubo ali z zanemarljivim dobičkom.
Many of their representatives were in Brussels to set out their stall to MEPs.
Ribiči, ki so o teh vprašanjih nedavno izmenjali mnenja z evropskimi poslanci, menijo, da je vzrok za takšno stanje tudi nepravična konkurenca iz tretjih držav.
The hearing was held in response to a consultative Green Paper by the European Commission, which sets out a possible future course for Europe's Common Fisheries Policy.
Predstavitev mnenj je bila organizirana v luči zelene knjige Evropske komisije o reformi skupne ribiške politike EU, ki bo prizadela 400,000 ljudi, zaposlenih v industriji.
Over 400,000 people in the 27 countries of the European Union work in the industry and will be affected by the reforms.
Težave zaradi ribičev iz tujine
North Sea Cod in dire straits
"Če bomo še bolj odvisni od uvoza, to ne bo zagotovilo ne za oskrbo, ne za nižje cene," je poudarila.
If imports are needed to meet demand, too strong a dependence would be disservice to the fishing community" said Alain Cadec.
Sicer so se po besedah Jacquesa Pichona, predsednika enega izmed združenj francoskih ribičev, cene rib od leta 2005 znižale za 18 odstotkov.
Citing an example Jacques Pichon, director of the "Pêcheurs Manche Atlantique", said the average price of fish has gone down 18% since 2005.
Pri tem je strošek nemškega ribiča 160 dolarjev na dan, njegovega senegalskega kolega pa le 22.
He said that a German trawler fisherman cost 160 dollars per day whilst a Senegalese cost only cost 22 dollars.
"Mislim, da ni kaj dodati," je dejal.
"I think we need to say no more" he said.
