The continuing growth of air travel is causing pressure on air travel safety.

Such a comprehensive picture of the extent of air pollution will facilitate common action for cleaner air.

A greater exchange of information about air pollution will, of course, not clean up the air we breathe.

Air traffic is increasing sharply.

Water and air surround us everywhere.

That is indeed strange when we are talking, as has become manifest here, about a system in deep crisis.

If a flag state defaults, then the port state must be given increased responsibility.

In my mind, illegal state aid amounts to little more than state - sponsored social dumping.

It was also agreed that there should be a progressive integration, state by state over ten years.

I state that categorically.

A state of emergency followed.

That is an utter disgrace.

Let me utter a few words of warning.

So today we find ourselves in a state of utter confusion.
