". The Brussels European Council confirmed our worst predictions. The powers that be took a colonial stance towards the candidate countries; they set accession terms and conditions, limited funding between 2004 and 2006 and reduced funding in real terms under the ΕU budget for 2007 to 2013, a move that will affect all the members of the enlarged ΕU. Yet again, the main victims of these decisions are the workers, who are expected to bear the entire cost of enlargement, in that appropriations for so-called real cohesion have vanished into thin air. They are closely followed by farmers in the Member States and candidate countries, who will see their income eroded as the result of cuts in agricultural spending. Negotiations with ΝΑΤΟ on a European army are in keeping with the plans of the imperialist warmongers. The ΕU is being placed under ΝΑΤΟ without any guarantee as to the inviolability of its Member States' borders, it is bowing to pressure from the USA and it has appointed Turkey to judge developments in south-eastern Europe and the Mediterranean, ‘washing its hands’ of any conflict which this may provoke between Turkey and the Member States of the ΕU. The people of Europe have woken up to the negative implications of these developments and are reacting against these prospects, refuting these options and fighting against the new order, war and imperialist plans."@en1
