".
The European Council in Seville added an extra course to the walls around fortress Europe by taking measures to strengthen xenophobia and racism and conceal the cruel liberal policies of the ΕU and the Member States, making scapegoats of immigrants and their countries of origin.
It is persisting in its anti-grass roots policy of antagonism, privatisation and liberalisation of the markets, which increases the profits made by big business and exacerbates the situation of the workers, understandably provoking them to react.
It is strengthening the militarisation and high-handedness of the ΕU, making provision to send forces to Bosnia and FYROM and creating new prosecuting authorities to consolidate the new order, deal with differences of opinion between the imperialist powers and suppress opposition and counterattack by the workers.
One example of this high-handed policy is the fortress erected around the Council venue, the attempt to terrorise citizens and the ban on demonstrations and on demonstrators from other countries entering Spain.
These splendid demonstrations, with more broadly-based social groups rallying round to oppose this policy, and a new anti-imperialist, anti-monopoly front will, without any shadow of a doubt, be the workers' response in their bid to overturn it.
The MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece voted against the joint motion because it basically consents to this policy."@en1
