Hr. Daul har nævnt det, men da bør alarmklokkerne ringe, for det første, fordi det for mange af disse kritikere næppe handler om forbrugernes vel, men om deres egne fortjenester, for det andet, fordi produktionen af et basislevnedsmiddel blandt de europæiske miljømæssige og sociale standarder har en berettiget pris, og for det tredje fordi sukkerprisen i Europa vel også må betragtes som en af de laveste i forhold til forbrugernes købekraft set på verdensplan.
Mr Daul referred to this, but it should set alarm bells ringing; firstly, because these critics are hardly concerned about the well-being of consumers but about their own profits; secondly, because the production of a basic foodstuff in compliance with European environmental and social standards has a legitimate price and thirdly, because, measured against consumers' purchasing power worldwide, the sugar price which we have in Europe can probably also be described as one of the lowest.
