lpv:translated text	". A trade strategy reflects a particular view of the world: a pure liberalisation of trade exacerbating inequality or a fight for real development? As the Mann report again shows, the chief aim of creating regional free trade areas (FTAs) is to ensure the EU has political and economic stability in its relations with the countries concerned (the ‘strategic geo-political interests’) so that nothing can get in the way of the sacrosanct free movement of goods, services and capital. But what of peoples’ access to basic rights? What about an assessment of the social, environmental, cultural and economic consequences of such liberalisation? What about genuine cooperation on equal terms and respecting the distinctive nature of each partner? WTO rules must not be allowed to interfere with the EU’s – still privileged – relations with its partners. The EU cannot reduce its policy towards countries and whole regions to free trade areas alone; there is too much of that in the Mediterranean, for example, while what is urgently needed is real political dialogue and economic and social cooperation built without any concept of domination."@en1
