"Ten years ago, I have already asked to abolish animal transports that exceed 8 hours. They are a violation of animal protection and also prevent the meat from being produced, processed and sold locally. This situation is particularly due to the lobby of the big slaughterhouses which are responsible for animals suffering hours of agony in trucks. It is important that Europe will intervene forcefully. I will further support and encourage that the regional meat and slaughter industry is extended, because in this case, long animal transports will no longer be necessary."




"Ich habe bereits vor 10 Jahren gefordert, Tiertransporte über 8 Stunden abzuschaffen. Diese verstoßen massiv gegen den Tierschutz und verhindern außerdem, dass das Fleisch in der Region vor Ort produziert, verarbeitet und vermarktet wird. Dahinter steht die Lobby der Großschlachthöfe und die armen Kreaturen leiden qualvolle Stunden. Es ist wichtig, dass Europa hier konsequent eingreift. Ich setze mich dafür ein, dass die regionale Fleisch- und Schlachtindustrie ausgebaut wird. Dann fallen automatisch auch die langen Tiertransporte weg."
