I would therefore like to ask the Commission the following question, although I have always been, and still am, a non-smoker: does the Commission not think that if tobacco cultivation were to be completely discontinued within the European Union with immediate effect – as called for by a fair number of people – people would just carry on smoking regardless because tobacco products would be imported into the EU?
C'est pourquoi, bien qu'étant depuis toujours non fumeuse, je veux demander à la Commission si elle n'estime pas que, même si on arrêtait complètement la culture du tabac dans l'Union européenne - comme le demandent certains -, on continuerait cependant à fumer car les produits du tabac continueraient d'affluer dans l'UE via les importations.
