Corsini (Northern Tyrrhenian AdSP): the harbour system and of the transports is essential for the creation of a euromediterranea community



Friday slid to Florence, in occasion of the debate on the topic "That future for politics of cohesion after 2020? Dialogue with the citizens" organized from the Tuscany Region in collaboration with the European Committee of the E regions the EU commission, the president of the Authority of Harbour System of the Tyrrhenian Sea Northern, Stefano Corsini, has delivered to the president of the European Parliament, Antonio Tajani, to the president of the Tuscan regional agency, Enrico Rossi, and to the president of the European Committee of the Regions, Karl-Heinz Lambertz, a position paper entitled "the marine ports which fundamental pillar of politics of cohesion of the EU: towards a macroregional approach in the western Mediterranean".

In the Corsini document it evidences that, "as a result of the recent Italian harbour reform, the Core port Network of Livorno is time the hinge of a multiharbour system that comprises a complete series of logistic nodes and transport inside a composed geographic dimension from territories, coasts and islands. Therefore the main challenge of the new Harbour Authority of the Tyrrhenian Sea Northern - it explains - is that to integrate Core Network with the total net of transports to the aim to without borders guarantee accessibility and connectivity of the E regions the peripheral areas at the market internal".

"Which primary multiharbour system situated along important euromediterranei aces of transport - Corsini observes - the ports of Livorno, Piombino, of the islands Capraia and Elba strongly are engaged in the development of the traffics of the passengers and the goods, in particular of the agricultural productions, between continental Europe, the islands and the countries not EU".

"The next pluriennale picture financial of the EU - Corsini in the position finds paper - is found in a vital phase is of the development of the Union that of the increase of the harbour systems. The cohesion of peripheral territories as the islands with the European central regions depend very from efficient and sustainable a net of transports; to such care, the final objective of the cohesion is closely legacy to the good operation of the system of the transports and to its territorial dimension, that it approaches to the farther cities and at the market European internal resorts".

"The multiharbour system - Corsini continues - demands therefore a greater attention to infrastructures of transport in the within of cohesion politics, in particular to the integrated systems marine-earthlings, which fundamental pillars of the European Union and the home market. We consider therefore necessary to widen the perspective of the territorial cohesion to beyond the pure cooperation between regional organisms towards a wider macroregional program that comprises the entire area of the western Mediterranean. The institution of this cooperation for the western Mediterranean will undoubtedly contribute to better integrate the insulare E regions peripheral nodes and will support the creation of a euromediterranea community of citizens, enterprises and operators through an only and connected net of transport. In this perspective, an attention still greater revolt to the ports, the marine transport and the blue economy represents a powerful instrument in order to strengthen and to improve the coherence of politics of the EU in the field of the transports, the cohesion and the external dimension of the EU. Therefore - Corsini concludes - we propose ourselves to collaborate by sea with you for the improvement of the dimension of European politics of relative cohesion to the transports and the exchanges".
