  • “L’acquis communautaire permettra une intégration des PECO dans de bonnes conditions”

C’était un des thèmes abordés lors d’un débat dans le cadre du séminaire pré-IAA à Francfot la semaine passée. La conclusion est que, même dans l’hypothèse d’un “Big Bang” (une ouverture brutale et non progressive) du marché du transport routier aux entreprises de ces pays, les chances d’une dérive du marché sont faibles. C’est en tout cas la position de la Commission européenne. Les transporteurs allemands sont plus nuancés.
