lpv:translated text	"France, Germany and Great Britain, together with the USA, are the main arms dealers feeding the planet’s conflicts: in Africa, where 10 states are at war, and in Asia, between India and Pakistan. The European states have sold arms to Indonesia, whose army is implicated in the massacres in Timor and the Moluccas. France is selling helicopters to Turkey, which is waging war against the Kurdish people, and aircraft to China and Taiwan, not to mention the scandal of the famous Taiwan frigates. In the recent past, France was an accomplice to the genocide in Rwanda by delivering any amount of small arms to the regime perpetrating the massacres. No one has yet insisted that the European Union and France answer for that. The resolution is not seeking to reduce arms sales radically to promote a policy of disarmament, but just to regulate them in order to guarantee greater profits for the industrial groups. There is no such thing as a bloodless war. There are only wars that kill. This hypocritical resolution seeks the implementation of a ‘European code of conduct’ while simultaneously declaring that the defence industry is ‘economically and strategically important for the EU’."@en1
