lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the report under consideration states that the struggle against terrorism must become a central plank in the EU's foreign and security policy. What should this policy be? September 11 revealed with one bang the prevailing error of the old security policy. A missile shield gives no defence against terrorism – I said this the night before at the meeting of our committee – nor can justice be created with weapons; at times, perhaps, it may be possible to put a stop to the perpetration of injustice. But we are so vulnerable that we are dependent on one another. The benefit of each depends on that of all others. I propose that a new fundamental policy line of dependency be created for the Union, both at the United Nations and at the WTO (concerning which we were speaking) and also within the Union. Internal and external security policy must be connected; the difference between them, after all, has disappeared. In this policy of dependency, we will use, in the first instance, social workers instead of soldiers; nurses instead of bombs; and teachers instead of missiles. The more people and nations receive justice, the less terrorism will be generated; this is something which we all know. I therefore ask the Commission to shape a clear fundamental policy line of dependency for all fields. We must get away from armed security, this hangover from the cold war. Who could sleep peacefully with bombs under the bed?"@en1
