lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the events of 11 September 2001 reminded the world that peace and security cannot be taken for granted. In this light it is laudable that European countries recognise the need to accept greater responsibility for this themselves. Their own credibility and security are at issue after all. This is not something you can promote half-heartedly. The Morillon report rightly states for example that NATO remains the absolutely necessary alliance for common defence, but at the same time argues passionately for the development of an independent European security and defence policy. To say nothing of the totally failing defence effort on the European side. In short, the Morillon report does not show us a clear way. What is more obvious than adequate input of the European Member States to NATO? One thing is sure: the obvious discord within European ranks on Iraq and also a controversial group initiative with regard to a European defence policy do not currently make the common foreign and security policy and the European security and defence policy a credible basis for the security of the citizens in the states of Europe. You serve these citizens with a strong, united NATO."@en1
