lpv:translated text	"Mr President, to the statement used as the or motto of Porto Alegre, ‘Another world is possible’, we should add the issue of whether the world, with its current tendencies, without changes or reforms in view of globalisation, can develop in a peaceful manner. The events of recent months are not exactly cause for optimism in this regard. Just as the strategic mantra of the Cold War was deterrence, that is, the threat of mutual destruction, now, within a plural and contradictory framework, it appears that the belief is arising that the dominant concept must, in a disturbed and dangerous world, which is increasingly insecure, be that of prevention. Nevertheless, we are seeing a growing and increasingly visible conflict over the form effective prevention policies may take. On the one hand, we see the response of a form of globalisation resulting from deregulated market capitalism, the unilateral leadership of the strongest and the new doctrine of preventive, dissuasive military action and ad hoc coalitions. On the other hand, we see increasingly large sectors with very opposing ideological positions, but which agree that, in view of the globalised world, the response must be a multilateral policy of democratic rules, global reforms and peace, particularly in view of the threat of terrorism, stating that what we essentially have to do is remove the sources of hate and humiliation in the world. Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I believe that, in the face of this emergence of a world public opinion demanding reforms of globalisation, we need a realistic vision, broad consensus on reform and concrete and financially viable initiatives. Europe has a vital interest in this issue. It must exert a world influence and be fully aware of its global responsibilities. Its original raison d’être was peace, following the devastating wars of the twentieth century. Over the last fifty years, it has perhaps been the first effective supranational response to the challenges of globalisation. In order to pursue this development, we must establish ourselves as a global player, with a more united and powerful foreign policy, despite all the current difficulties, because these movements, this global civil society, is increasingly demanding a Europe, a united Europe, and we must not disappoint."@en1
