France | Strasbourg - EU Parliament | Presentation on animal transport to Turkey at Intergroup meeting

Vortrag von Sabrina Gurtner, Projektleitung TSB|AWF, vor der Interfraktionellen Arbeitsgruppe Tierschutz im EU-Parlament.

We hold a presentation on live animal exports from the EU to Turkey in front of the Intergroup on the Welfare and Conservation of Animals of the European Parliament. We present the findings of our 5-year-investigation at the Turkish border and show a sequence from our film on animal transport to Turkey. The subsequent discussion is lively and constructive. Several Members of the European Parliament promise to support our efforts. Our aim is for the EU Commission to stop the export of live animals to Turkey, as the EU animal transport regulation is systematically violated on this route.
