  • Letter to the Commission Regarding Printers Voluntary Agreement
    Brussels, Wednesday 26th of May To: Mr Virginijus Sinkevičius, European Commissioner for Environment, Oceans and Fisheries Mr Thierry Breton, European Commissioner for the Internal Market Mr Frans Timmermans, European Commission Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal We urge the European Commission to keep its promises and propose a regulatory measure addressing the durability and repairability of printers as well as the reusability of cartridges as part of the forthcoming Circular Electronics Initiative. And we ask that the Commission rejects the proposed voluntary agreement drafted by manufacturers. The Commission's flagship Circular Economy Action Plan, adopted in March 2020, has set out to address the entire life cycle of products and tackle their premature obsolescence notably by promoting the right to repair for ICT products. In addition to mobile phones, laptops and tablets, the Plan has rightfully identified printers as a particularly wasteful product category, and has included a commitment to tackle them by means of a dedicated regulatory instrument “unless the sector reaches an ambitious voluntary agreement” by September 2020. Nearly one year later, the discussions on the voluntary agreement have not yielded any tangible results. Voluntary approaches clearly do not work. We need strong regulatory action now. We are extremely concerned by this situation. Not only because of the negative impacts of short-lived printers on the environment and on consumers but also because we are witnessing promises made being walked back on. Printers are one of the most iconic examples of premature obsolescence. Our analysis of printers in use today suggests that over 80% of them have been in use for less than 3 years, and only about 4% have been in use for 5 years or longer.

  • Albulena HAXHIU Minister of Justice, Government of Kosovo
    Albulena HAXHIU Minister of Justice, Government of Kosovo Cc: Isuf Jahmurataj Chair, Working group for reviewing the draft Civil Code Brussels, 15 June 2021 Subject: Civil Code of Kosovo and the inclusion of same-sex partnerships Dear Minister of Justice, Albulena Haxhiu, As Members of the LGBTI Intergroup in the European Parliament, a cross-party grouping of Members of the European Parliament working on equality for LGBTI people, we contact you today to send a strong message of support for the inclusion of same-sex partnerships in the Civil Code of Kosovo. We are aware that, with the support of the European Commission, the government of Kosovo has been working and developing its first ever Civil Code. This presents a golden opportunity for affording legal protection to LGBTI persons, namely in the context of the regulation of their relationships. In its official position on Kosovo, adopted 25 March 2021 by a majority, the European Parliament referred specifically to LGBTI rights and to same-sex partnerships, welcoming the government’s work on the matter and calling for specific measures: 54. Welcomes the progress on the protection of LGBTI rights at the legislative and policy level; […] calls on the government to include same-sex partnerships in the draft Civil Code, as guaranteed by the country’s Constitution;1 It therefore comes as a surprise that, in the final Draft Civil Code, 1) marriage is defined as a legally registered union between spouses of different sexes, in contradiction of the letter and principles of the Constitution, and that 2) same-sex partnerships are not regulated, as per below: CHAPTER II – MARRIAGE | Sub-chapter I – Meaning of Marriage Article 1138 - Marriage 1.

  • Brussels, 24 February 2021
    Brussels, 24 February 2021 Declaration from Members of the European Parliament to urge the Commission and Member States not to block the TRIPS waiver at the WTO and to support global access to COVID-19 vaccines We, Members of the European Parliament, urge the European Commission and the European Council to review their opposition to the TRIPS waiver proposal at the World Trade Organisation (WTO), which serves to enable greater access to affordable COVID-19 health technologies, including vaccines, in particular for developing and middle income countries. This call comes in view of the European Council meeting of 25 February 2021 and the crucial decision to be made by all Member States at the WTO General Council on 1-2 March 2021. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the need to ensure global open access to COVID-19 health technologies and to rapidly scale up their manufacturing and supply has been widely acknowledged. However, despite efforts and statements made by the European Commission and several heads of state in support of treating COVID-19 medical products as global public goods, this has not yet translated into actionable realities. In this context, the EU’s open opposition to the TRIPS waiver risks exacerbating a dangerous North-South divide when it comes to affordable access to COVID-19 diagnostics, personal protective equipment, treatments and vaccines. The WTO decision on a potential waiver offers a crucial and much-needed act of effective solidarity, as it is an important step towards increasing local production in partner countries and, ultimately, suppressing this pandemic on a global scale.

Altiero Spinelli 60, rue Wiertz / Wiertzstraat 60 B-1047 Bruxelles/Brussel Frans Timmermans Executive Vice-President Virginijus Sinkevičius Environment, Oceans and Fisheries Commissioner TOWARDS A GREEN EUROPE TO PROTECT EUROPEAN DELTAS Manifesto for the protection of European Deltas There are around 10,000 deltas in the world, and some 339 million people live in them. Many of these deltas are extremely vulnerable to flooding, especially due to the effects of climate change and poor river basin management. Deltas are coastal systems formed by the contribution of water and sediments from rivers, which makes them vulnerable in double measure to climate change and other factors of global change in the territory. Its physical, ecological and socioeconomic integrity is threatened both by changes in the marine system (rise in sea level, increase in the frequency and intensity of sea storms, etc.) and by land uses and the management of their hydrographic basins (such as decrease in the river flows, reservoir sediments trapping, etc.). In Europe there are deltas of high socio-economic and ecological relevance, such as those of the Danube, the Vistula, the Rhine, the Po, the Rhone or the Ebro, many of which are suffering increasing risks of erosion, subsidence, flooding and salinization. The effects that the Ebro Delta suffered after the storm Gloria are a clear example of this. In this context, it is urgent that their effective

  • Input of Greens/EFA to the Trade Policy Review Building
    Input of Greens/EFA to the Trade Policy Review MEP Saskia Bricmont MEP Heidi Hautala MEP Reinhard Bütikofer MEP Yannick Jadot MEP Anna Cavazzini MEP Sara Matthieu MEP Markéta Gregorová MEP Manuela Ripa 3 December 2020 The Greens/EFA Group greatly welcomes the European Commission’s initiative to review the EU trade policy. We urge for ambition in this exercise: this is a unique opportunity to fundamentally rethink and reshape our rules to ensure fairer, greener and more sustainable trade. In this context, we fully take note of Commissioner Dombrovskis’ commitments during the hearing in early October 2020 regarding his willingness to accelerate the mainstreaming of the Green Deal across EU trade policy. Throughout this document, we make several proposals in this direction. Many of them are based on our Green Trade for All position paper from 2018, which we warmly encourage you to read. Building more resilience – internal and external dimensions Question 1: How can trade policy help to improve the EU’s resilience and build a model of open strategic autonomy? Question 2: What initiatives should the EU take – alone or with other trading partners - to support businesses, including SMEs, to assess risks as well as solidifying and diversifying supply chains? During her speech at the European Parliament Plenary debate on 16 April 2020 on the EU coordinated action to combat the coronavirus pandemic and its consequences, European Commission President von der Leyen made it clear that a “more modern and circular economy will make us less dependent and boost our resilience”. She outlined that a variety of measures, such as investing in renewables, clean transport, sustainable food and nature restoration, will be important as we recover from the Covid crisis as they will not only help the environment and the economy but will also work towards shortening and diversifying our supply chains.
