We voted for the GUE/NGL Group’s motion for a resolution and against the joint resolution, whose signatories once again show that they are concerned only with the free movement of goods but not with the freedom and rights of human beings.
We are against a fortress Europe surrounded with barbed wire, whether it is intended to keep out those fleeing oppressive regimes and seeking asylum or those who are simply fleeing poverty.
As for the references to sustainable development that is suggested as a way of preventing thousands of men and women from trying to flee their countries in order to flee poverty, they are humbug. From sustainable development to sustainable development, the gap between the plundering imperialist countries and the poor countries never ceases to grow.
Our answer to the refrain repeated by most resolutions on ‘preventing illegal immigration’ is the need to regularise the situation of all so-called illegal immigrants.
We also reaffirm our demand that all who live and work in the European Union should have the same rights, including electoral rights, and the same freedoms, including the freedom of movement, as the citizens of the Member States of the Union."@en1
