Maria do Céu Patrão Neves (PPE), in writing. – (PT) I voted for this new agreement on cocoa, the main objectives of which are to promote international cooperation in the world cocoa economy through an appropriate framework for discussion on all cocoa matters among governments and with the private sector, thus contributing to strengthening the national cocoa economies of the member countries. The aim of these measures is to strive to obtain fair prices, leading to equitable economic returns for both producers and consumers; to promote a sustainable cocoa economy in economic, social and environmental terms; and to promote transparency in the world cocoa economy.
