  • Marina Kaljurand Ambassador Chief Negotiator and Undersecretary CFO of Swedbank and Moved to Stockholm
    Energy 2/2009 on legalities Marina Kaljurand Ambassador Chief Negotiator and Undersecretary CFO of Swedbank and moved to Stockholm. In Estonian papers he became a hero, when he got his new top job in Sweden. In Aftonbladet he was recently pictured under the title: The face of the finance crises doesn’t smile! Now, Estonians are not famous for smiling, but I guess that Erkki Raasuke also had no real reasons to smile, especially when later reading the article. I must say that I feel sorry for many Estonians. We must however understand that the ones who criticize are usually our friends, who care about you and want you to improve. What are then the usual reactions to criticism here on the street? I have always met two reactions here. First is; Go home if you do not Dear reader, like it here! Second one; You must be working for KGB! Is it OK to criticize Estonia? These reactions are quite primitive, even if they are understandable to some extent. However I would recommend I have soon lived ten years in Estonia and I have all the time people to take a more mature approach. There is the old saying been wondering if it is ok to criticize Estonia, Estonians and from Jeppe på berget [edit: Jeppe on the mountain, a comedy all what is taking place here or should we foreigners keep our written by Ludvig Holberg, a Norwegian-Danish author]; We mouth shut and only come out on the BBN chat site with our all know that Jeppe is drinking, but no one knows why Jeppe opinions? is drinking!

At the same time, however, the global backdrop to these calls has grown difficult: a shifting international security and normative environment in which dialogue between States, the major powers in particular, is stalling; growing discontent with - or disregard for - multilateralism, with actors, frameworks and interconnections more complex and divides – digital or otherwise - between States more evident. The speakers will explore the opportunities and challenges of establishing dialogue among States and between States and other actors in the current environment; the feasibility of facilitating or establishing dialogue between States; the involvement of actors other than States in dialogue; and the international security implications if dialogue between relevant actors is not feasible or if dialogue breaks down.

  • COMMON STATEMENT on the US-EU WINE TRADE RELATIONSHIP June 14, 2021
    COMMON STATEMENT ON THE US-EU WINE TRADE RELATIONSHIP June 14, 2021 The EU and the US wine sectors play a critical role in supporting a vibrant transatlantic trade relationship. This sector is an essential driving force for many rural economies and for a significant number of medium and small enterprises. The undersigned deeply regret that the wine sector, as a notable industry in our two economies is sometimes caught in the crosshairs of unrelated trade disputes, causing economic damage to producers, and putting the millions of jobs that they support at risk. Consumers are also victims of those trading conflicts, which can lead to higher prices and reduced consumer choice. We urge the European Union and the US to resolve current trade disputes, to stop any related retaliatory action against wine exports, and to strengthen their bilateral partnership in order to avoid any sanctions against those sectors, including in the context of the current World Trade Organization Large Civil Aircraft Airbus-Boeing disputes. As legislators and policy makers on both sides of the Atlantic, we acknowledge the importance and benefits of strengthening this bilateral partnership. Both the U.S. and the EU are each other’s largest export markets, with the total wine trade reaching more than $5.3 billion (€4.5 billion) annually, creating jobs and investment and supporting sustainable agriculture on both sides of the Atlantic. We ask our governments to further support the economic vitality and diversity of our wine sectors by working to remove all tariffs on wine to achieve a “zero for zero” wine trade environment.

  • Paradise Papers Letter
    Paradise Papers Letter: Dear Sirs, We, the undersigned parliamentarians, are deeply concerned by recent revelations from the 'Paradise Papers' investigation. We regret that some governments, not least the British government, have failed to learn the lessons from the previous 'LuxLeaks' and 'Panama Papers' scandals. In particular, we are concerned that insufficient progress has been made to ensure that investment vehicles like trusts are sufficiently transparent. We are also concerned that tax havens, like those involved in the Paradise Papers, have been able to continue with highly opaque company and trust registration models. It has also been disappointing to see some countries try to block measures against tax havens like the EU's blacklist of tax havens. We call together for all governments to place renewed emphasis on tax transparency and fully implement Public Country-by-Country Reporting. In particular, we call for information on trusts to be made publicly available, and for all tax havens to be forced to automatically share information with international tax authorities. We also call for stronger regulation of intermediaries, including penalties for those proven to be involved in tax evasion, aggressive tax avoidance or money laundering. Failure to act against aggressive tax avoidance and evasion is depriving public services of desperately-needed funding. It also enables some multinational companies to unfairly undercut many small and medium-sized businesses. The Paradise Papers must act as a wake-up call to deal with industrial-scale

  • Choose Europe! Join for the Opening of the New European Parliament!
    CHOOSE EUROPE! JOIN FOR THE OPENING OF THE NEW EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT! 1st of July 2019 | Strasbourg, France Citizens’ Agora European Youth Centre Strasbourg 30, rue Pierre de Coubertin, 67000 A new Parliament for a new Europe European Parliamentary Association 76 Allée de la Robertsau, 67000 2nd of July 2019 | Strasbourg, France Rally In front of the European Parliament 1 Avenue du Président Robert Schuman INTRODUCTION We have a newly elected Europe Parliament. It should become the front-runner in promoting a new Europe. Join us in Strasbourg for the opening session on 1-2 July to voice our demands for a more democratic, more social, more federal - a sovereign Europe! We are organising a 2 days bus trip from Brussels. The European Union has been “at a critical junction” for far too long. Radical reforms of the Euro, unity on security and defence, European democracy are urgently needed. Meanwhile Brexit looms, nationalism is on the rise, and citizens are puzzled on what Europe brings and where it is heading to. The next term of the European Parliament will be crucial to put Europe on a new course. The history of the European Union is one of citizens gathering and calling on elected leaders for more decisive steps towards political unity for the European people. Join us in Strasbourg to show that citizens support a federal Europe and engage with federalist members of the European Parliament on how to promote federalist goals in the newly elected Parliament. EU national leaders have failed us. European integration by intergovernmental cooperation has the EU stuck in a status quo that could well be its downfall.

  • TTIP-Letter-To-Schul
    Mr. Martin Schulz, President of the European Parliament European Parliament Bât. Paul-Henri Spaak, 09B011 60, rue Wiertz B-1047 Bruxelles 7 July 2016 Dear Mr. Schulz, In anticipation of the 14th round of negotiations between the EU and US for the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) planned to start on 11 July in Brussels, we are writing to you on behalf of over 65 organisations representing consumers, farmers, not-for-profit health insurers, environmental and general public interest groups to express our serious concerns that the European Commission is failing to respect the European Parliament’s 2015 Resolution on TTIP. 1 Today, we released new analysis, which demonstrates that the European Commission continues to ignore critical aspects of the European Parliament’s Resolution on TTIP, in particular regarding recommendations related to protecting public health, the environment, and democracy. 1. Negotiating on and affecting EU chemicals and pesticides rules The European Parliament has called on the European Commission not to negotiate on issues “where the EU and the US have very different rules” and not to allow regulatory cooperation to affect future standards in such areas. However, the European Commission has continued to negotiate on issues that will affect legislation on chemicals, pesticides, and cosmetic products, whether directly or through regulatory cooperation. This is particularly worrying because the European Commission is already lowering current EU standards of protection (such as on limits to pesticide residues in food) in order to remove barriers to trade. 2. Respect for the EU regulatory system The European Parliament has called on the European Commission “to fully respect the established regulatory systems on both sides of the Atlantic”.

  • Brussels, 14 April 2020 Dear Ms Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm
    Brussels, 14 April 2020 Dear Ms Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, Dear Members of the Polish Parliament, Dear Colleagues, As Members of the European Parliament, we are writing to express our deep concern regarding the Parliamentary Document no 39 on amending the act of June 6, 1997 - the Penal Code - known as the “Stop paedophilia” bill - and Parliamentary Document No 36 on the amendment to the Act of 7 January 1993 on family planning, protection of the human fetus and conditions for the termination of pregnancy -known as “Stop Abortion” bill - that will be debated in a first reading in the Sejm of the Republic of Poland in your sitting of the 15-16 April 2020. We are convinced that measures that roll back protections for women’s human rights and self- determination are of grave concern as they undermine a core European Union value, that of advancing gender equality. Under human rights law measures that undermine or restrict exist- ing rights are not permitted and these draft bills violate Poland’s obligation to ensure ever greater protection of human rights. We are deeply concerned that the “Stop Abortion” bill provide for the prohibition of termina- tion of pregnancy due to severe or fatal foetal anomalies, currently a legal ground for abortion in Poland. Poland’s Act of 1993 on Family Planning, Protection of Human Fetus and the Con- ditions of Legal Pregnancy Termination is one of the most restrictive laws on abortion in the European Union. The bill would in effect result in a near total denial of access to legal abortion in Poland as most legal abortions are performed under this ground.

    THE NEW EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT KEY COMMITTEE COMPOSITION 31 JULY 2019 INTRODUCTION After several marathon sessions, the European Council agreed on the line-up for the EU “top jobs” on 2 July 2019. The deal, which notably saw German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen (CDU, EPP) surprisingly designated as the next European Commission (EC) President, meant that the European Parliament (EP) could proceed with the election of its own leadership on 3 July. The EPP and Renew Europe (formerly ALDE) groups, in line with the agreement, did not present candidates for the EP President. As such, the vote pitted the S&D’s David-Maria Sassoli (IT) against two former Spitzenkandidaten – Ska Keller (DE) of the Greens and Jan Zahradil (CZ) of the ACRE/ECR, alongside placeholder candidate Sira Rego (ES) of GUE. Sassoli was elected President for the first half of the 2019 – 2024 mandate, while the EPP (presumably EPP Spitzenkandidat Manfred Weber) would take the reins from January 2022. The vote was largely seen as a formality and a demonstration of the three largest Groups’ capacity to govern. However, Zahradil received almost 100 votes (more than the total votes of the ECR group), and Keller received almost twice as many votes as there are Greens/EFA MEPs. This forced a second round in which Sassoli was narrowly elected with just 11 more than the necessary simple majority. Close to 12% of MEPs did not cast a ballot. MEPs also elected 14 Vice-Presidents (VPs): Mairead McGuinness (EPP, IE), Pedro Silva Pereira (S&D, PT), Rainer Wieland (EPP, DE), Katarina Barley (S&D, DE), Othmar Karas (EPP, AT), Ewa Kopacz (EPP, PL), Klara Dobrev (S&D, HU), Dita Charanzová (RE, CZ), Nicola Beer (RE, DE), Lívia Járóka (EPP, HU) and Heidi Hautala (Greens/EFA, FI) were elected in the first ballot, while Marcel Kolaja (Greens/EFA, CZ), Dimitrios Papadimoulis (GUE/NGL, EL) and Fabio Massimo Castaldo (NI, IT) needed the second round.
