To the President of the European Commission Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen, Rue de la Loi / Wetstraat 200 1049 Brussels To the Executive Vice-President of the European Commission Mr. Vladis Dombrovskis Rue de la Loi / Wetstraat 200 1049 Brussels Brussels, 22 October 2020, Subject: the EU must impose an import ban on Chinese companies using forced labour Dear President von der Leyen, Dear Vice-President Dombrovskis, For years, the Chinese regime has been detaining millions of human beings in camps, just because they were born Uyghurs. For years, Europe and the world have been witnessing a crime against humanity without opposing any resistance to it. In recent months, several studies have reported the use of Uyghur forced labour for the benefit of major European companies. Indeed, many Chinese factories, directly supplying EU brands exploit the Uyghurs and benefit from their forced labour. Facing this abjection, Europe must act to protect the lives and fundamental rights of Uyghurs. The EU should use its trade and market power to safeguards the founding principles enrichened in our Treaties and guiding our external policies. As the US did lately through an imports ban passed almost unanimously in the US House of Representatives, Europe urgently needs to establish a blacklist of Chinese companies implicated in Uyghur forced labour. We look forward to your response. Yours sincerely, 1. Raphaël Glucksmann, S&D 2. Dietmar Köster, S&D 3. Francisco Guerreiro, Greens 4. Sylvie Guillaume, S&D 5. Aurore Lalucq, S&D 6.

Question for Written Answer
Question for written answer E-000444/2021 to the Commission Rule 138 Alessandra Moretti (S&D), Brando Benifei (S&D), Pietro Bartolo (S&D), Pierfrancesco Majorino (S&D), Giuseppe Ferrandino (S&D), Andrea Cozzolino (S&D), Irene Tinagli (S&D), Elisabetta Gualmini (S&D), Simona Bonafè (S&D), Pina Picierno (S&D), Paolo De Castro (S&D), Patrizia Toia (S&D), Giuliano Pisapia (S&D), Franco Roberti (S&D), Caterina Chinnici (S&D), Massimiliano Smeriglio (S&D) Subject: Delays to the EU vaccination campaign The Commission is in charge of making arrangements on behalf of all the Member States with the pharmaceutical firms manufacturing COVID-19 vaccines, with the aim of ensuring distribution to everyone in the EU is rapid, efficient and fair. In recent weeks Pfizer and AstraZeneca, two of the pharmaceutical firms the furthest ahead at present in the manufacture of effective proven vaccines, announced that they would be obliged to reduce supplies for various reasons. This news has caused bewilderment among EU citizens, who have already endured months of this pandemic that has caused thousands of deaths and enormous damage to the EU’s social and economic fabric. In this context: 1. In the agreements concluded by the Commission, what terms and conditions apply to the supply of the vaccines, and what dissuasive measures and sanctions were included to protect citizens’ rights and the interests of the EU? 2. What measures will the Commission deploy to ensure that these delays are not repeated in the future, including in the event that vaccines from other pharmaceutical firms come onto the market? 3.

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.
