Die Abstimmung wird am 11.2. erwartet. Dem Vernehmen nach will sich Deutschland bei der Abstimmung in den zuständigen Gremien der EU enthalten, anstatt den Anbau des gen- technisch veränderten 1507 Mais abzulehnen, denn Bundeskanzlerin Merkel und die CDU haben sich bisher in der großen Koalition gegen die Voten von SPD und CSU durchgesetzt. Damit würde gegen die An- bauzulassung voraussichtlich keine qualifizierte Mehrheit der EU- Mitgliedstaaten zustande kommen und die Kommission wird nach allen bisherigen Erfahrungen den insektengiftigen und herbizidresistenten gentechnisch veränderten Mais 1507 zum

Key outcomes from the campaign include the following: o More than 1 in 4 MEPs across the EU supported the Written Declaration. During its three-month campaign window, Written Declaration 0016/2013 received 214 MEP signatures (28% of the European Parliament), representing all 28 EU Member States (for full list see Appendix B). o The campaign engaged a large online audience through social media.
