Draft amending budget No 2/2023: Entering the surplus of the financial year 2022 (A9-0225/2023 - Fabienne Keller) SV

11-07-2023

. – Vi svenska socialdemokrater i Europaparlamentet stöder ändringsbudget nr 2/2023. Vi stöder dock inte uppmaningen att avskaffa rabatter eller att använda böter och avgifter som ytterligare intäkter för unionens budget istället för till en minskning av BNI-baserade avgifter.

Artificial Intelligence Act (A9-0188/2023 - Brando Benifei, Dragoş Tudorache) SV

14-06-2023

. – Vi svenska socialdemokrater välkomnar det nödvändiga förslaget om att reglera AI. Vi anser dock att vi inte får försumma AI:s potential när det gäller inre säkerhet, grov brottslighet och terroristbekämpning. Vi ska ha regler som beaktar fördelarna med AI, men också dess nackdelar. Detta är nödvändigt för att Sverige och Europa ska kunna konkurrera på den internationella arenan. För att se till att AI inte används på ett orättvist diskriminerande och integritetskränkande sätt anser vi dessutom att högriskanvändning måste förhandsgodkännas av en rättslig myndighet, särskilt när det gäller biometriska identifieringssystem.

Ensuring food security and the long-term resilience of EU agriculture (A9-0185/2023 - Marlene Mortler) SV

14-06-2023

. – Matsäkerhet är en avgörande framtidsfråga. Pandemin och kriget i Ukraina har satt ljuset på sårbarheter i livsmedelskedjan och klimatförändringarna har stor påverkan på jordbruket. Det är vår skyldighet att säkra en hållbar och motståndskraftig jordbrukssektor som kan möta dessa utmaningar. Vi socialdemokrater röstade för resolutionen i sin helhet då den lyfter fram flera viktiga aspekter, men vi vill betona att det finns brister i betänkandet relaterat till hållbarhet. Bland annat måste vikten av en hållbar användning av bekämpningsmedel erkännas. Vid omröstningen om skrivelserna som rör biobränslen valde delegationen att avstå eftersom skrivningarna målar upp obefogade motsättningar. Vår ståndpunkt är tydlig: biobränslen är oerhört viktiga i klimatomställningen och utfasningen av fossila bränslen behöver ske så snabbt som möjligt.

Written questions

Members can submit a specific number of questions to the President of the European Council, the Council, the Commission and the Vice-President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union, for written answer. Rule 138, Annex III
