lpv:translated text	"Although we welcome some aspects of the resolution that has been adopted today by the European Parliament, we must express our reservations and criticism of some very negative aspects, specifically its support for the war strategy that the USA is implementing in Afghanistan, which will not only fail to resolve any problems but will actually worsen the humanitarian crisis and incidences of racism and xenophobia. We are also critical of the relentless political pressure to speed up the militarisation of the EU and the communitisation of aspects of ‘justice and home affairs’, through the ‘creation of a genuine European judicial area.’ What is particularly worrying is the fact that proposals have been tabled for creating a ‘European search and arrest warrant’ or the controversial and dangerous common definition of terrorist acts as well as measures that represent a serious attack on fundamental freedoms, guarantees and rights linked to the coordination and effectiveness of law enforcement in the framework of cooperation with the USA. Nor can we fail to mention the symptomatic absence from the resolution of any critical reference to the Ghent Council decisions on confirming compliance with the ‘Growth and Stability’ pact, with maintaining the policy of wage moderation, or the reform of the labour markets, the processes of liberalising public services – of which the recent decision on postal services is one example – the reform of public services in social provision or the Council’s announcement of the launch of a new round of negotiations at the WTO. These measures will have a serious effect on the interests of workers and of the communities in the various countries of the EU. With regard to the creation of a ‘preparatory convention’ for the new IGC, we feel its prime objective is an attempt to limit or impose conditions on the sovereign decisions of governments and national parliaments. This is why we have voted against this motion for a resolution."@en1
