  • Lettera Sassoli Chiusura Parlamento IT.Pages
    8 marzo 2020 Caro Presidente Sassoli, Ti scriviamo per esprimere la nostra profonda preoccupazione per la diffusione della malattia infettiva causata dal coronavirus COVID-19 in Europa e per richiedere ulte- riori misure di sicurezza per salvaguardare i Membri del Parlamento europeo, il per- sonale e la popolazione locale. Come ben sai, il livello di emergenza legato alla diffusione di questo virus è note- volmente aumentato nel corso delle ultime ore: il numero di casi confermati si sta moltiplicando in molti Stati membri, compreso il Belgio, e sono state confermate nuove aree di contagio. Misure di sicurezza straordinarie sono state adottate dalle autorità pubbliche di tutta Europa e intere aree sono state messe in quarantena. Il numero di casi confermati è in costante aumento in Belgio e a Bruxelles e questa settimana abbiamo riscontrato i primi casi di nuovi coronavirus nelle istituzioni del- l'UE. Sebbene apprezziamo che siano già state adottate misure straordinarie per far fron- te a questa emergenza, riteniamo che la situazione in rapida evoluzione e i maggiori rischi per la salute richiedano ulteriori misure di sicurezza come l'immediata interru- zione di tutti i lavori parlamentari, compresa la prossima sessione plenaria, come misura precauzionale. Il Parlamento europeo, con oltre 5000 persone che vi lavorano e viaggiano regolar- mente tra la loro città natale e Bruxelles, ha il potenziale per diventare un focolaio di trasmissione del coronavirus. Con la presente ti chiediamo di sospendere tutte le attività parlamentari con effetto immediato, fino a quando i rischi per la salute legati alla diffusione del virus saranno sotto controllo.

  • Hon. Mr President of the European Parliament, Dear David Sassoli
    Hon. Mr President of the European Parliament, Dear David Sassoli, Since March, when the outbreak of COVID-19 intensified in Europe, the functioning of the European Parliament (EP) has changed dramatically, due to the sanitary measures applied. We understand the inevitability of the contingency plan, taking into account the need to prevent infection and the spread of the virus and to protect the health and lives of people. Six months later, the functioning of the EP is gradually returning to normal. However, there are services whose unavailability seriously impairs parliamentary work, namely the interpretation service. The European Union (EU) has 24 official languages and all deserve the same respect and treatment. We recognize that the number of languages available in committee meeting rooms has been increasing, but even so, more than half of the languages still have no interpretation. Multilingualism is a right enshrined in the Treaties that allows Members to express themselves in their own language. Now, that is not happening and we are concerned that the situation will continue, even taking into account the expected workflow in the commissions after these atypical six months. In this sense, we appeal, once again, to you, the President of the EP for the application of the letter and the spirit of the principle of multilingualism, finding solutions that respect this principle and that allow the use of any of the 24 official languages of the EU. The expression of each deputy in her/his own language is a priority so that there can be conditions to fully exercise the mandate for which she/he was elected and a condition of respect for the citizens who elected her/him.

  • Castaldo-Lupo (M5S): "Su Alitalia Commissione Ue Rischia Di Ledere Interessi Consumatori E Lavoratori"
    Politica - Castaldo-Lupo (M5S): "Su Alitalia Commissione Ue rischia di ledere interessi consumatori e lavoratori" Roma - 06 apr 2021 (Prima Pagina News) "Servono buon senso e imparzialità". "Sulla vicenda Alitalia la Commissione europea sta peccando di superficialità. Con la sua politica da due pesi e due misure rispetto ai diretti concorrenti della compagnia di bandiera italiana, rischia di ledere gli interessi dei consumatori italiani e di migliaia di lavoratori. Questo è inaccettabile, servono buon senso e imparzialità". Lo scrivono, in una nota, il Parlamentare europeo e Vicepresidente dell'Europarlamento Fabio Massimo Castaldo e la Senatrice Giulia Lupo, eletti in quota M5S. "Insieme agli europarlamentari Isabella Adinolfi, Mario Furore, Dino Giarrusso e Daniela Rondinelli depositiamo oggi due interrogazioni alla Commissione europea affinché chiarisca la natura delle sue decisioni", continuano. "Non è chiaro infatti quale normativa comunitaria sta utilizzando per giustificare la sua richiesta di discontinuità per Ita rispetto ad Alitalia e se questa discontinuità possa arrivare fino a definire elementi essenziali quali il perimetro aziendale e la grandezza della flotta. Inoltre - scrive ancora Castaldo - va chiarito come mai agli altri Paesi europei sia stato concesso di apportare un aumento di capitale da parte dell’investitore pubblico, mentre all’Italia si chiede di realizzare un’operazione alle normali condizioni di mercato. Questo comporta una discriminazione, tanto più che è di dubbia certezza giuridica la decisione di impedire all’Italia di mantenere gli slot su Linate che, nell’intenzione della Vicepresidente Vestager, andrebbero ceduti ad altri vettori".

  • Ms Mairead Mcguinness European Commissioner for Financial Services, Financial Stability and the Capital Markets Union Mr
    TO: Ms Mairead McGuinness European Commissioner for Financial Services, Financial Stability and the Capital Markets Union Mr Valdis Dombrovskis European Commission Executive Vice-President for An Economy that Works for People CC: Mr Frans Timmermans European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal Ms Kadri Simson European Commissioner for Energy Brussels, 13 April 2021 Dear Executive Vice-President Dombrovskis, Dear Commissioner McGuinness, We are convinced that the Taxonomy Regulation is crucial for the European Union to achieve both the new greenhouse gas emissions reduction target for 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. Additionally, the Regulation should help strengthening the European Union’s strategic resilience and global economic competitiveness, maintaining its energy security and affordability, boosting growth and job creation and supporting a just and inclusive energy transition that leaves nobody behind. However, to what extent the Taxonomy Regulation will ultimately meet these expectations depends primarily on the technical screening criteria (TSC) defined in the Delegated Act on climate change mitigation and adaptation. We understand the European Commission will publish it later this month, whereupon the European Parliament may make full use of its scrutinizing prerogatives under Article 290 TFEU. In advance of its publication, we would like to share with you some of our major concerns regarding the revised draft version of this delegated act. Firstly, it is indispensable that the Taxonomy Regulation takes into account transition at the energy system level and supports the most cost-efficient decarbonisation pathway for each Member State in line with the principle of technology neutrality. In this context, it is key to acknowledge the role of gaseous fuels.

    Ursula von der Leyen President of the European Commission B - 1049 Brussels Brussels, 16 May 2020 Dear President, We welcomed your proposals for the tourism compartment, presented on 13 May. The sector has been affected in severe ways by this unexpected crisis, and we need a strong support to help the workers and the families depending by one of the most important economic field in Europe. Nevertheless, we need an additional effort from the Commission in order to prevent any discrimination between Member States. In fact, the “Communication towards a phased and coordinated approach for restoring freedom of movement and lifting internal border controls” (C(2020)3250) states that “Measures to be taken at national level to gradually lift travel restrictions should take into consideration [...] the assessment of approximation of epidemiological situations in the Member States”. That could cause some discrimination, and could also give the possibility to create internal bilateral agreements penalizing some Member States. Of course, we need to keep the health security as priority, and to put in place every measure to control and prevent the spreading of the epidemic, but, at the same time, we need a strong coordination by European Commission to prevent any form of bilateral agreements against the principles of the internal market. Hence, we asks the Commission to block any form of “tourism corridors” between Member States that could affect a fair restoration of the market. Yours sincerely, Mario Furore, Member of European Parliament, Isabella Adinolfi, Member of European Parliament, Tiziana Beghin, Member of European Parliament, Fabio Massimo Castaldo, Member of European Parliament, Ignazio Corrao, Member of European Parliament, Chiara Gemma, Member of European Parliament, Laura Ferrara, Member of European Parliament, B-1047 Bruxelles - Tel +32 2 28 45782 F-67070 Strasburgo - Tel +33 3 88 1 75782 [email protected] - www.europarl.europa.eu .

  • Uef-Spinelli Group
    UEF-SPINELLI GROUP MANIFESTO 9 MAY 2021 At watershed moments in history, communities need to adapt their institutions to avoid sliding into irreversible decline, thus equipping themselves to govern new circumstances. After the end of the Cold War the European Union, with the creation of the monetary Union, took a first crucial step towards adapting its institutions; but it was unable to agree on a true fiscal and social policy for the Euro. Later, the Lisbon Treaty strengthened the legislative role of the European Parliament, but again failed to create a strong economic and political union in order to complete the Euro. Resulting from that, the EU was not equipped to react effectively to the first major challenges and crises of the XXI century: the financial crash of 2008, the migration flows of 2015- 2016, the rise of national populism, and the 2016 Brexit referendum. This failure also resulted in a strengthening of the role of national governments — as shown, for example, by the current excessive concentration of power within the European Council, whose actions are blocked by opposing national vetoes —, and in the EU’s chronic inability to develop a common foreign policy capable of promoting Europe’s common strategic interests. Now, however, the tune has changed. In the face of an unprecedented public health crisis and the corresponding collapse of its economies, Europe has reacted with unity and resolve, indicating the way forward for the future of European integration: it laid the foundations by starting with an unprecedented common vaccination strategy, for a “Europe of Health”, and unveiled a recovery plan which will be financed by shared borrowing and repaid by revenue from new EU taxes levied on the digital and financial giants and on polluting industries.
